AC DC

In September 1979, AC/DC was riding high on the success of their album 'Highway to Hell,' which had been released just weeks earlier, in July. This period marked a pivotal moment for the band, as they were transitioning from cult status to mainstream success, largely thanks to the energy of their live performances and the burgeoning rock scene. The Fresno concert on September 8 was part of the 'Highway to Hell' tour, showcasing their electrifying stage presence during a time when lead singer Bon Scott was at the peak of his powers. Fun fact: 'Highway to Hell' would become one of AC/DC’s most iconic records, even featuring a legendary album cover. This concert not only captured the band's raw energy but also solidified their place in rock history, paving the way for future albums and tours.
