DH saw them about 13 years ago. He Has Not Stopped Talking About It. He's so desperate to see them again.

Have a lovely time.

i should be wearing something that is suitable for a 38 year old women should'nt i?
however, i think that i will wear a strappy t-shirt and skinny jeans to show off my quite ample cleavage

I'm going to see them next Tuesday. I'm so excited. I never thought that I'd get to see them live.

Don't forget to report back after the concert.

i'm getting very excited now
not quite sure why, its not like i havent been to gigs before, must be because as thunderduck says, i never thought i'd get to see them.

Ooh - lucky you, I saw them with DS in April in Manchester. I was like a child waiting from Father Christmas sooooo excited because, as you say, I never thought I'd get to see them.
Best gig I've ever been to (and there have been many) and The Answer were pretty damned good too, wow that singer is amazing.
Mumof2 / Thunderduck - you're in for a real treat

Never heard of The Answer (but I'm not an AC/DC fan either!) but will pass it on. Thanks.

The Subways too.

I hate sitting through support acts.

I'm even more excited now 12stone.

Just how loud were they?

I couldn't hear much out of my left ear for about 2 days
Well worth the inconvenience though.
Re support acts - I don't normally bother about them (stand outside in the concourse with a beer!) but I'm glad we went in early for The Answer, trust me you won't be disappointed.

I would have loved to go but could not get tickets. I am very very jealous
Have a fabulous time.

OK I'll go for The Answer then.

What time did AC/DC come on?

I'm so excited, I'm particuarly delighted that I'll be seeing them in not just my home town but the home town of Angus and Malcolm too.
We Scots are generous enough to allow the Aussies to share them and to take some of the credit for them, and for Bon

Erm... let me think. The Answer were on at about 7:15 for maybe 40 mins. AC/DC came on just after 8:15 til just after 10:30 which was marvellous as it meant we didn't have to wait for the very last train home

Look out for the enormous inflatable Rosie sat on the train... i'll put a pic on my profile. To give you an idea of the size, you can just about see Phil, Malcolm and Cliff at the bottom of the picture.

And where Angus gets his energy from is anyone's guess!

I'd forgotten this extra gig was in Scotland - I'm expecting your experience will be even better than mine and DS's then - it's bound to be out-of-this-world because they've "come home".

Thankyou. I'd love to see the pic.

I think they must plug Angus in before every concert and charge him up for a few hours. It's incredible how much energy he has at his age.

Glasgow audiences are always great, but they'll get the biggest pop ever when they come out, as you say because they've came home.

I feel like a big kid. I'm so excited about going. I think about it every 5 minutes.

I rarely go to stadium or arena concerts so I'm a bit clueless about starting times and things like that.
In fact the last one I went to was the Red Hot Chili Peppers back in 2007.

Oopsagain if you want proper rock music ALL the time, listen to Rock Radio - stations in Manchester - closest to me (106.1), Scotland and the North East. The signal isn't always that good so I tend to listen over the internet.
www.rockradio.co.uk then select region.
