Rock giants AC/DC kicked off the UK leg of their current world tour with a typically extravagant show at the O2 Arena in London last night (April 14).

The set started with ‘Rock ‘N’ Roll Train’ as a huge screen showed a locomotive hurtling along before it appeared to burst through the screen and land onstage, where it remained for the remainder of the show.

There was also a lowering of a huge bell during ‘Hell’s Bells’, a 40ft inflatable woman appearing onstage during ‘Whole Lotta Rosie’ and the firing of cannons during perennial closer ‘For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)’.

Frontman Brian Johnson dedicated 1976’s ‘Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap’ to “London town”, where AC/DC have not played since 2003.
