Sunday afternoon i made my trex to Zepherhills ,Fl. to see the 7th annual livestock concert event. This year was to be special, above all the other bands, one special guest was set to perform. The guest was Brian Johnson of AC/DC! Brian joined the band Jackyl on stage late sunday afternoon for the shows closing act. The performance was something out of the ordinary, Brian shared vocals with Jesse Dupree, each would sing a differnet verse to the songs, all and all they pulled it off very well. the 1st song featured was a new track written by Brian and Jesse called "locked and loaded" its hard to describe the song, except to say it was rockin' and filled with some nice guitar breaks , tempo changes, and lets not forget great vocals. The band kicked into back in black next, followed by shoot to thrill, I stand alone. Brian later returned for the encore singing along with Jesse on the lumberjack song, they finished the song with Brian and Jesse weilding chainsaws cutting up a burning chair. it was a fun show, something different and all for a good cause, the proceeds were givin to the make a wish foundation. One final thought, it was nice to see someone on stage, namely Brian Johnson, who seemed to genuinely enjoy performing. Brian interacted with the crowd throughout like the true rock n roll veteran he is, it was a great gig/party thanks to Brians performance.
