AC/DC Live At River Plate, a definitive live concert DVD documenting AC/DC’s massive Black Ice World Tour, will be available for purchase on Tuesday May 10, 2011. Shot in December of 2009, AC/DC Live At River Plate marks AC/DC’s triumphant return to Buenos Aires where nearly 200,000 fans, and 3 sold-out shows, welcomed the band back after a 13 year absence from Argentina. This stunning live footage of AC/DC underscores what Argentina’s Pagina 12 newspaper reported by saying “no one is on the same level when it comes to pure and clear Rock ‘n Roll.” Directed by David Mallet and produced by Rocky Oldham, AC/DC Live At River Plate was shot with 32 cameras entirely in HD. AC/DC Live At River Plate features 19 songs (110 minutes) as well as ‘behind the scenes’ footage of this massive production coming together among the excitement of anxious fans.

AC/DC Live At River Plate will be available on DVD, Blu-Ray and Ltd Edition collector’s edition with exclusive t-shirt. Additionally the DVD contains a bonus feature titled “The Fan, The Roadie, The Guitar Tech & The Meat,” features interviews with AC/DC, their crew and fans among the excitement of the shows and the city of Buenos Aires.

AC/DC Live At River Plate captures the intensity and power of the band’s critically acclaimed world tour in support of their most recent album Black Ice, which debuted at #1 in 31 countries. The Black Ice World tour took AC/DC on a 20 month trek around the globe playing to over 5 million fans in 108 cities in over 28 countries. The Black Ice World Tour earned AC/DC a Pollstar Award for Major Tour of the Year in 2010.

If you're an AC/DC fan that already owns "Family Jewels" and "Live At Donnington", what more do you really need?

What's awesome about "Jewels" was it showed the band cared enough about their fans to go into the vault and put together something really cool for them, unlike other bands who shall remain nameless....

This is just another DVD of just another show. Seems excessive.

[FORD]

FINALLY, Let There Be Rock!

Should have been released the day that DVD's were invented, but better late than never.

[binnie]

Very excited about 'Let There Be Rock'.

From the snippets I've seen, however, 'Live At the Plate' looks uninspiring. It's clearly shot well, but the band sound............................old.

How Dare You.

to be honest, "I have If you want blood You've got it" on vinyl and CD as well as Powerage , I find myself wanting very little else in terms of Angus

Powerage kicks fuckin' arse, I dunno how I did it, but I listened to it so much, bits of the CD started falling off. I wore the fuckin' thing out!

Furthermore, I don't see the point in comparing AC/DC with Bon Scott & AC/DC with Brian Johnson. I'm just glad we have that whole mess of albums, some better than others.

Cheers! :bottle:

I just want a DVD copy of LTBR. My video tape is just about on it's last leg.

[Mr Badguy]

What I want to know is:

Have they resynced the audio?

That annoyed the fuck out of me on the original release.

[FORD]

There's no excuse not to do so, especially given technology in 2011 vs 1980. Even amateurs on You Tube can sync up audio and video from completely different sources and 1 out of 100 will actually get it right. Ac/Dc can certainly afford to pay some competent people to do that.

So there's not gonna be a stand-alone version of Let There Be Rock made available in June, minus all the extras?

Meh. I'll just have to make due with my vhs-to-dvd homemade transfer until such a time comes. I really don't need all that extra stuff. I just want the turkey, not the trimmings.

It IS good news that LTBR is getting such a treatment, though. That is one fucking awesome flick/concert vid.

Can't say as I care much about the 2009 Black Ice show. It's nice the band is still around and vertical, I suppose, but the Black Ice tour vs. the LTBR era? No contest. Not even close. Ain't hatin' on Brian, but it's just the way it is.

Yes, it's mentioned a little farther down at the link I posted (acdczone). It will be released the same day, and will only include the show itself without all the bells and whistles. It will cost around 15 bucks, which is half the price of the collector's edition.
