Yep, that's an easy one. As much as I want to hear them play it live, they said they don't due it in honor of Bon Scott, which I think is really cool.

Haha, very clever.

And they've played Who Made Who live, and I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure they played Big Gun at Donington. They might not be on the usual setlist, but they have been played.

Yep I know they've played Who Made Who, but they don't PLAY Who Made Who, as in the perceived current setlist. Hey that's weird, as I was typing, it's just come on, on this Sirius radio thing!

Big Gun - no - never played.

Fair enough if you don't like it, but the majority of fans do, so 'terrible' here is perhaps very subjective!

I don't think the albums in the mid-late 80's were bad, I just think the production and mix damaged the songs somewhat. Fly On The Wall had pretty solid songs, imagine them with a BIB production? And BUYV showed a bit of originality in their songwriting, though admittedly there were a few slightly lame songs (by their standards)..

Who made Who is not just good song but also radio hit - single. I remember like it was yesterday, when I-ve been first time to heard that song on the radio in 1986. It was very good happening in ,drought, middle and late 80 s. Becouse everywhere in that time I heard more or less just Van Halen, Queen, U2 and Dire Strates, lol.

This song of also to me after all beloved Bon (wich was screw up his fans and left them forever) is also probably never been played alive: Crabsody In Blue

Agree with you. I like Who made who, and as you say the albums of the mideightees was not good productions, but they sure did some great songs back then. People also say that Brians voice was so much worse in that period, thats totally wrong. His voice was great just look at Rock in Rio. It was just the productions that was bad on those albums, like Fly on the wall.

He was absoltuely awesome at Rio, but I think that was just before they actually recorded Fly (very shortly before). He sounded like he'd lost just a bit on the album, then by 1988 his voice had changed a bit more. But I agree, he would have sounded great on both albums with a good mix. Still sounded damn good, just not mixed in a way to suit his more roughed-up voice.
