Alright. Hey there, all you countryfolk, Pack away your Western clothes, And while you’re out there sittin’ on a fence, So take off your cowboy hat and come down here, ‘Cause AC/DC at The Grizzly Rose ain’t no riddle, man, To me, it makes good, good sense. Good sense.
Friday night had the Grizzly Rose hosting an 80s Metal Prom with Noise Pollution-The AC/DC Experience. Over the past 8 years, this rocking tribute band covers hits from both the Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras. Noise Pollution had heavy decibels playing on their guitars.
Like all good AC/DC Tribute bands and the original as well, Noise Pollution put guitarist Angus front and center, and to the side and back to the other side, and up and down, and shirtless and rocking every inch of the stage. Curt Young sparked on guitar as Angus, Brian Brown tackled gravelly vocals, Butch Florida on explosive drums, Michael Spencer on electrifying bass, and Luigi De Vito on smoking guitar.
Noise Pollution took listeners on a wide ride through AC/DC’s rich history with songs such as Hells Bells, Shoot to Thrill, Who Made Who, Hell Ain’t a Bad Place to Be, Money Talks, Whole Lotta Rosie, Thunderstruck, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, Back in Black, T.N.T., among others. Find the full setlist in the photos below.

Country crooner Billy Brown and his band based out of Kentucky and Nashville, TN, had the job of enticing early arrivers up to the dancefloor. Brown mixed in solid country originals Middle of a Country Night and She’s My Girl, with rocking covers of Wanted Dead or Alive, Pour Some Sugar on Me, The Joker, Talk Dirty to Me, Every Rose Has It’s Thorn, and Sweet Child of Mine. Brown kept it Country with Folsom Prison Blues, Crazy Town, Bottoms Up, Save a Horse, Beer Never Broke My Heart, She’s Country, and ended with Southern Rock classic, Sweet Home Alabama.
Billy Brown was supported by Aaron Roy on drums, Tobie Emerson on bass, and Dillon Gaige on guitar.
