Could you imagine how pumped up that would get the crowd?? The Team? Would be so cool!!

Not too mention how sweet it makes Oklahoma City look.

All you really need is for Angus to have his guitar handy and play the arpeggio intro riff…..

Besides, if I was in the band, I would be amused that an NBA team had adopted certain parts of one of my most famous songs..And, as far as it being a gimmick, Kobe and company will be there as well. Angus would be in good company, star power wise, and also 18000 screaming fans.

However, according to 60 minutes, it costs arena’s (who average 14,000 to 25,000 in seating)a minimum of 750K just to get AC/DC in the building for any performance. It was also reported their Black Ice World Tour has already went over the 1 billion mark in revenue generated. Getting the greatest hard rock band of all time and one of the highest grossing bands in world history (2nd to only the Beatles I believe)to more or less, perform in a pseudo gimmick, may be hard? But the thought of it actually happening, wow!

That would really bring the place alive. The timing of the game and the concert is perfect. What are the chances that this could ever happen again? Even if AC/DC wants some serious compensation for this, it’d be well worth it.

I can just see Angus prancing around hitting that riff! Getting the crowd amped up would be an understatement. Thanks Berry!
