AWESOME!!!!!! This concert is the best of all, as it's with Bon Scott! I pray it has received a thorough remaster for HD! The amount and contend of supplements sounds absolutely amazing! Day one for me!
This has just made my day, and I am not even an AC/DC fan anymore, but Angus was the reason I picked up the guitar!

I wonder what's it's going to sell for on Amazon.

[P@t_Mtl]

One of the most amazing band ever to see in concert. Saw them three times in my life and everytime I am not sure who was more exhausted, me or Angus These guys rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Blu-ray Fanatic]

I've always loved AC/DC but I loved it more when Bon Scott was still around. Is this going to be a steelbook or just a tin case like what you see on shows like The Pacific, Band of Brothers, etc.?

Edit: Who cares about the case? If its a limited edition, then I'm preordering.

[demoni]

Cool!!

[Goat3000]

What great news.
Day 1 rocking it at home nice and loud.
Extras look impressive as well.

Cannot wait.

[Wings80]

No "It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'N' Roll)" or "You Shook Me All Night Long" ?

A new image (now on the first post) shows it having a standard blu-ray case for the discs, but having that and other bonuses (like a booklet and pictures) come in a steel case.

I will never understand why there are very few complete concerts out there. If you go to the trouble of recording the show why don't you release the entire event?

[Lemmy Lugosi]

Day one purchase for me.

I saw this film in theaters, waaayyyyyy back in the early 1980's, a couple of times. Even the tickets themselves were cool and collectible; each ticket and stub featured a picture of one of the band, and was printed in a different color on different nights/showings. I still have a couple of them, too. And they had a huge sound system right in the theater! If I can find 'em, I'll post a scan of the stubs here later.

Thats all right! I'll still buy it

[Blu-ray Fanatic]

Did Bon Scott sing TNT or was that Brian Johnson? Sorry, I don't remember. Some fan I am.

I'm looking forward to getting this one.

Can't see the picture

[The Blu Knight]

Awesome news! This'll go right next to Ladies and Gentleman, The Rolling Stones and The Song Remains the Same forming a nice little section of classic rock on blu-ray! I was about to cave and get one of the current AC/DC blus, but I'm glad I held out for Bon. Nothing against Brian, as I'll still pick up Donington eventually, but there's nothing like a classic concert on blu with the original line-up.

Bon Scott. Although it's not like Brian's never sung it.

Any idea of the aspect ratio of this? The Stones' and Zeppelin's 70s shows on Blu were in widescreen so I'm hoping this is as well and not a 1:33 ratio...

[Crimson King]

now who is the better drummer IYO

Phil Rudd or Chris Slade?

I'm guessing it will be in 1:33, as I'm pretty sure that was the way it was filmed. That was definitely how it was screened when theatrically released, as well as the VHS home video. I wouldn't mind if it was in a widescreen format, so long as we don't lose any of the current versions' picture.

Phil Rudd, no question.

I used to be in an AC/DC tribute band, and I can hear, easily & immediately, the difference between Rudd and Slade. Rudd is much more "organic" sounding and is a much heavier hitter than Slade. I was happy as all hell when Rudd returned to the band. Rudd's always going to have that drum sound that musicians connect to the AC/DC sound, and Slade was okay, but he never could quite pull that off.
