Fifty years in, AC/DC rocked Denver like it’s 1980

Denver turned into one massive rock choir as AC/DC stormed into Empower Field at Mile High on its Power Up Tour, lighting up the stadium with pyrotechnics, Angus Young’s trademark schoolboy strut on guitar, and a crowd that gladly handled backup-vocal duties on just about every chorus.

It marked the band’s first Denver show in a decade and its first time headlining Empower Field, so the Mile High City had some catching up to do, and it did. For a band pushing past its fifth decade, AC/DC still played like a band with something to prove. See photos from the show below.
