Thunderstruck is the longest-running AC/DC cover band in existence. Hailing from Vancouver, Thunderstruck is celebrating its tenth-anniversary. Their show is comprised of 2 sets including 28-songs that cover the entire gamut of AC/DC’s thirty-year career.
Vocalist Ken shares the same rasp as Brian Johnson but also lapses into the nasally style of Bon Scott for the band’s pre-BACK IN BLACK material. Of course, no AC/DC band worth its salt would be complete without an Angus Young and Dave really has all the moves nailed down. The schoolboy outfit and cap, the duck walk, the floor seizure and every glorious, blues-inspired riff were done to perfection. The rest of the band certainly holds up their end as well. The rhythm section of Bud and Tim keep a throbbing beat throughout and rhythm guitarist Roger keeps up to the manic Angus-like stage energy. For “Hells Bells,” you’d swear it is AC/DC on stage, while the elongated jam of “Sin City” was ripped straight from the seminal 1978 live album, IF YOU WANT BLOOD (YOU’VE GOT IT).
