AC/DC Live Performance of For Those About To Rock at Hammersmith Odeon
On October 16, 1982, AC/DC electrified the Hammersmith Odeon in London during a pivotal moment in their career, just after the release of their iconic album, 'For Those About to Rock We Salute You.' This album, featuring the thunderous title track, solidified AC/DC's status as rock legends, following the massive success of 'Highway to Hell.' The live performance showcased their high-energy anthems, with lead singer Brian Johnson captivating the crowd, a role he embraced after the tragic loss of Bon Scott. Interesting to note, 'For Those About to Rock' was one of the first albums to utilize cannons in its live shows, enhancing the spectacle. This concert not only highlighted AC/DC's magnetic stage presence but also marked a significant era in rock history as they seamlessly transitioned into mainstream success while staying true to their hard-hitting sound.
