AC DC
AC/DC Electric Shock Live Performance at Nippon Budokan, Tokyo
Venue: Nippon Budokan
Location: Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan
Date: June 10, 1982
In June 1982, AC/DC rocked the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, marking a high point during their explosive 'For Those About to Rock We Salute You' tour. This tour spotlighted their album of the same name, released just a few months earlier in November 1981. The live recording captures the raw energy of the band, showcasing signature hits that defined the hard rock landscape of the early '80s. Interestingly, this was the band's first tour following the tragic loss of original frontman Bon Scott just a few years prior; Brian Johnson had seamlessly stepped into the role and brought his own fierce style. The Budokan show is a testament to AC/DC's resilience and ability to electrify audiences across the globe, cementing their legendary status.
