Melbourne Rocked to Its Core as AC/DC Shakes the Ground
It was one of those nights when Melbourne didn’t just hear the music — it felt it. AC/DC, the rock legends who’ve been powering stages for over five decades, stormed the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Wednesday night for their first Australian concert in a decade. And it wasn’t just the fans who felt the energy — even the earth itself responded.
According to the Seismology Research Centre, low-frequency tremors were detected several kilometers away as the band tore through its electrifying setlist. The vibrations, recorded in the 2 to 5 hertz range, were caused by a mix of pounding speakers and thousands of fans stomping and jumping in unison. “The sound waves people were feeling through their bodies — that’s what our seismographs picked up,” explained Adam Pascale, the Centre’s chief scientist.
Imagine that — the ground shaking not from an earthquake, but from pure rock energy. Residents up to 10 kilometers away reported hearing the concert echoing through the night. One local said it was so loud, it felt like the show was happening right outside their door. The Environment Protection Authority even received a couple of noise complaints — but let’s be honest, that’s probably a badge of honor when AC/DC’s in town.

The MCG was packed with 80,000 fans — a sea of black T-shirts, devil horns, and pure excitement. The band launched into “If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It)” before slamming straight into “Back in Black,” and from there, the crowd never stopped roaring. Even though frontman Brian Johnson is now 78, he performed with the same fiery spirit that’s defined AC/DC for generations. Angus Young, still rocking his signature schoolboy outfit at 70, darted across the massive stage, duckwalking, shredding, and reminding everyone why he’s one of the greatest guitarists in rock history.
The setlist was a celebration of the band’s golden years — “Thunderstruck,” “High Voltage,” “Highway to Hell,” “You Shook Me All Night Long,” and “Let There Be Rock.” During that final number, Angus went into a 20-minute solo that felt like pure electricity — an almost spiritual moment for anyone who’s ever held an air guitar.
Fans called it a “homecoming,” and Brian Johnson himself described Melbourne as AC/DC’s “ancestral homeland.” The night wasn’t just a concert — it was a reunion, a statement that even after all these years, AC/DC can still make the ground move.
And they’re not done yet. The band will play again at the MCG this Sunday before continuing their Australian leg of the Power Up world tour. If Wednesday night proved anything, it’s that Melbourne was well and truly thunderstruck — and the earth itself might still be humming from the sound of rock and roll.
