no cuz donington was in 1991 or 1992. Big Gun was in 93.

Ahh, that's right. My apologies. I could've sworn I heard somewhere that it was in the setlist, but neither on the CD nor in the DVD. And they've never played it at a concert, but they have played it live, and I actually got to see it. My dad is good friends with a lady whose been working at the Deltaplex (here in Grand Rapids, Michigan) for many years. On the SUL tour, AC/DC's first show was in Grand Rapids at Van Andel Arena, and they did sound check the day before at the Deltaplex. I was fortunate enough to get invited to see them up close in person. It was kind of strange though; Angus would start playing Thunderstruck and would stop after a few seconds. Although it was different, it was still really cool. And one of the songs they fooled around with was Big Gun, which sounded great live. Angus added a few little riffs here and there. So yes, technically the whole song hasn't been played live at a concert, but they've played bits and pieces at a sound check.

Nice story. You lucky devil, Dan! Friend of mine saw Mal in Beasonsfield (near where I live, close to Mal's UK home) the other week. He wanted to wind his window down and yell out "ARE YOU READY!!!?" but Mal was on the other side of the road!

It-s going on my nerves when some ppls trying to stick up their dumb ettikets on other ppls, take a right and trying to establish who-s ,, reall ,, DC fan and who-s not.
Such ppls should to have more respect to those, wich thinkin with they own head and have they own oppinions (to be also critical)wich are not just oppinions of majority.
But anyway, we are just humans, lol.

Well said Rocky baby,'who made who' is an example of ACDC trying to score a hit single. We all kinow they dont need to dont we? It just doesnt work when they try to do commercial stuff.

Yes, only classics there :-)
Shot down in flames and Dog eat dog is two that at least i have seen live with them. Gimme a bullet, Live wire, Let me put my love and Given the dog is what i am hoping for, and i really think they will play Given the dog a bone this tour.

Well guys, maybe they read this topic for inspiration ;-)
It is just a small list I've generated, he tehy are on age so the list can't be too long.

whats next the moon or put the finger right on you!!!

Yep definitely like to hear Put The Finger On You live again!

man you guys are true fans!

here's the definitive list of the 10 best songs they don't play live (much):

10.Burning alive
9. Ain't no fun (waitin' round..)
8. Evil walks
7. Let me put my love into you (the lost BIB song)
6. Shake your foundations
5. Overdose
4. Ride on (tho they do it on occassion I think)
3. Down payment blues (same as above)
2. It's a long way to the top
1. Gone shootin'(my personal favorite)

Are we forgetting Riff Raff??
That's the one I'd love to hear on the Black Ice Tour!!!

Oh, and High Voltage!!

nearvous shakedown and sin city could be great live.

Gotta be Long Way To The Top

i love that song they should play that live

I want to hear these songs live:

its a long way to the top
meltdown
shot down in flames
walk all over you
fly on the wall
and flick of the switch

Personally I think they should play Long Way to the top this tour, at least the Australian leg, here in Oz it is probably their best known song.

Other one's I'd like to hear are:

Razors Edge (played it on namesake tour but not since)
Shake A Leg
Burning Alive
Big Balls
Sink the Pink
Big Gun
If You Want Blood
And maybe the nice little instrumental "D.T" from Who Made Who for a bit of a change, and give Brain a bit of a breather.

Anyone think there are any songs that a played Live a little too often? I reckon the Jack, good song for crowd participation, but I'd rather hear one of the above.

Nah I gotta disagree about the Jack.. I reckon it has to be there it is such a brilliant song I LOVE IT!! But I would like to see Bad Boy Boogie included more often, and I wish they would play Badlands. They haven't played Guns for hire in a long time and I think they should include it again it's brilliant. Anything from the flick of the switch album. And Whats next to the moon I would like to hear live but it's just not the same without Bon although Brian does an alright job of it on a video I've seen on Youtube. But Every AC/DC song is GREAT I just hope I can get tickets to see them in February!
