Witness every stage of the world's most electrifying rock band! Plug Me In - the new 3DVD Collector's Edition set contains over 7 hours of rare and unreleased LIVE video from AC/DC. DVD 1 goes all the way back to 1975 an... more »d original singer Bon Scott with the band's first appearance on TV, quickly followed by two never-before-seen performances from the 1976 show at Sydney's St. Alban's High School. Also on DVD 1 are live clips from Melbourne, London, Glasgow, Holland, and Munich - including the very first public performance of the song "Highway To Hell"! DVD 2 picks up in Tokyo, with Brian Johnson at the mic. Tearing through new songs and old, the band clearly doesn't miss a beat and goes on straight through 2003 - performing with childhood heroes The Rolling Stones. Also included are rare interviews, tour promo films and alternate live versions. DVD 3 is a 2 hour collection called "Between The Cracks" - stuff too good to leave out! Included are both Bon and Brian eras, featuring the never-before-seen 1983 show from the Houston Summit.Total Running Time: approx. 7 hours

Angus Statue Intro [Stiff Upper Lip Tour Film, June 2001]
"I'm paraphrasing here, but Angus Young once said, in all sincere modesty, something to the effect of, "If I'm not into it, the audience isn't into it. I have to be on point every night." And, boy, when this guy is on, he is ON. Watching Angus duck-walk to the left and shuffle to the right while furiously banging his head in rhythm to Phil Rudd's steady 4/4 beat is a sight to behold. And the guy never lets up. The man embodies the true spirit of rock and roll. In my estimation, the greatest showman in rock history.
While I'll forever favor the Bon Scott era, I dig AC/DC in all forms. They stick to a formula that works for me and millions of others. And they've been doing it for over thirty years. This DVD collection is, so far, the best documentation of their progression from rowdy club circuit band to one of the most successful music acts of the 20th century. Make sure you don't settle for the two-disc version as there's some real gems found on the generous "bonus" disc of the Limited Edition.
Audio/video quality is as good as can be expected from some of the older material. Personally, I think the defects of this vintage material only adds to the charm. Concert videos are too "perfect" and glossy these days. I like it raw (and it works perfectly with the spirit of AC/DC's music).
AC/DC brings the energy, making this is one of my favorite pick-me-up music DVD packages. Highly recommended."
Bon Scott "is" awesome!

"This ac/dc set is something any ac/dc fan would love. It takes you back to the beginning up to fairly current performances. It is the next best thing to being at a live concert. Put it in and crank it up!!!!!"

"First off..AC/DC should have a statue of them somewhere in the world of Rock'n Roll, that's how great they are! having that said, this box set is really in my opinion crap that was lying on the floor and was unused for different reasons. Yes there's some few cool stuff in it, posters, pictures, etc... but that's all stuff you could get on the net if you look in the right places. Main reason why I bought this, I collect everything from them. Listened to it once, put it back on my collectors shelve and wait that someday it will be worth something. Great piece of collection to own, but the content is less than satisfactory due to the fact that i pretty much know everything about them. A great gift for their new fan's."
