Description

For Those About To Rock is the name of a video containing live performances by AC/DC, The Black Crowes, Metallica and Pantera in the Tushino airfield. The closing down of the Soviet Union. In September 1991, only a few days after the August Putsch failed, hundreds of thousands of rock music fans converged in Moscow to enjoy the very first open-air rock concert. “For Those About To Rock…We Salute You: Monsters in Moscow” also offers a look at the efforts of the Russian Army to try and postpone the concert (not on the original VHS release).
