Veteran rockers shake up the crowd

Veteran rockers AC/DC have paid tribute to late frontman Bon Scott on the 30th anniversary of his death during a concert in Sydney last night.

More than 70,000 AC/DC fans fans flocked to see the Aussie heavy metal musicians perform at Sydney's ANZ Stadium as part of their first tour on homesoil in years.

While the band played mostly new songs taken from their Black Ice album, they also drew on old favourites like Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and You Shook Me All Night Long.

It was during their classice tune High Voltage that the rockers paid tribute to Scott by flashing images of the former frontman on a giant screen.

Scott died in 1980 at the age of 33. He died choking on his own vomit after a night of heavy drinking.
