Live at Donington is the DVD recording of the Australian rock band AC/DC‘s show at Donington Park on 17 August 1991, and it was the band's third Monsters of Rock festival. The two-hour show was performed before 72,500[1] spectators and included real cannons, the Hells Bell, an inflatable Rosie and an inflatable Angus.[2] It was filmed in 35 mmPanavision and had 26 cameras that included one situated inside a helicopter. The DVD includes special features such as stereo and 5.1 surround sound, Iso-cam versions of certain songs for different band members, and audio commentary from Angus and Malcolm Young.[2]
Another option allows the viewer to focus on just one member for the length of a song. This option is available for Angus Young on 'Thunderstruck', 'Back in Black', and 'Highway to Hell'. The option is offered for Malcolm Young on 'T.N.T.', Brian Johnson on 'Whole Lotta Rosie' and Cliff Williams on 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap'. For unknown reasons, this option was not available for Chris Slade. One other feature is a full catalogue discography with audio interview of all international albums.
