Who Made Who play AC DC from yesterday to today

E-mail Print PDF

It was a long weekend so everybody was out in force for some live music on Sunday, Feb. 15. The most popular choice was a double bill with local rock band the Raw Dogs and Who Made Who keep up to date on AC DC. Photo by Richard AmeryAC DC tribute Who Made Who.


The Raw Dogs, who also opened for classic rockers Saga the night before, played an energetic set of popular hits from classic rock to newer songs ranging from kiss to the White Stripes.


They played a tight set. Vocalist Jesse Dickson had a powerful voice nailing the higher notes. They had boundless  energy and had all the rock star poses down pat. They got a good crowd dancing and singing along to classics like “Johnny Be Good,” Poison’ Talk Dirty to Me,” The Knack’s  “My Sharona,” and the White Stripe’s“ 7 Nation Army,” plus Kiss’ classic  “Detroit Rock City.”


 Who Made Who were impressive as always, covering all eras of AC DC  from Bonn Scott to Brian Johnson and even tapped into the brand new AC DC album “Rock or Bust.”

 They had the look and sound down  right down to same kind of instruments and outfits, the lead singer looked eerily similar to AC DC frontman Bran Johnson and sang with his  throat rasping purity while channeling the ghost of Bonn Scott and wore Brian Johnson’s  miners cap and his #22 black and white  football jersey. The lead guitarist wore Angus Young style plum shorts and school boy jacket.


They played really old, classic AC DC including  “Jailbreak, ” “Whole Lot of Rosie,”  obscurities and brand new songs like  “ Rock or Bust,” and of course the classics like “Back in Black, ” and  “Money Talks.”
