“There was some madman running around inside the hall with a meat cleaver, chopping into people!”: How Angus Young remembered AC/DC’s scariest gig

Angus Young.

In every show that AC/DC have played in their 50-year career, lead guitarist Angus Young has never stopped moving once he’s out on stage - and no wonder. It’s a survival trick he learned in the mid-’70s when the band were cutting their teeth in Australian pubs.

The first time Angus wore his old schoolboy uniform for an AC/DC show was in April 1974 during an open-air concert in Sydney’s Victoria Park.
