Many others are popular and get the crowd going, but "you shook me" gets the ladies going - and if you get the ladies going, your work is done - the rest will happen very naturally!

We do this one and the crowd loves it. Our singer blows out his vocal chords, but that's another matter...

You Shook Me is at the top of my list too.

After that, I'd say Back in Black and Thunderstruck.

Of course, with a classic rock/blues crowd I've found that pretty much any AC/DC song is gold.

You Shook Me... has to be #1.

TNT also gets the crowd wound-up...

Our singer does an extremely convincing Bon Scott, we do 3 or 4 AC/DC songs... You Shook Me, TNT, Girls Got Rhythm, & Live Wire.

TNT goes over great, then You Shook Me & Girls Got Rhythm, then Live Wire.

Rossie ALL THE WAY.

We also do Highway to Hell, If You Want Blood, and Touch To Much (of which Highway is the strongest - and I get a nice rest during the verses).

Rossie TOTALLY brings the place down every time. It's the song we always end with. One time STARTED the final set with it, simply to change things around. At the end of the set, the bar staff blocked the stage, and insisted we play it again to finish with...

If Rossie isn't knocking them down, then you're not doing it right.

Shook me would be the #1 but the others mentioned are excellent as well. A couple of other good ones are She's Got the Jack, For Those About to RocK, and Fly On the Wall. If you need a slow try Ride On.

Not just in a band I played in, but every time I have seen it performed. It never failed, not even once.

I posted this in another forum and the overwhelming majority clearly put:

You Shook Me All Night Long at the top of crowd pleasers.

Luckily there are many ACDC crowd pleasers.
