A cloud of fireworks erupted around the stage, Angus Young began his one-legged bunny hop and didn't stop moving for the next two-and-a-half hours.

The sound of Aussie rockers AC/DC's concert at Western Springs tonight can be heard far across Auckland.

The legendary band's Auckland show - part of their Rock or Bust world tour - followed a performance in Wellington that was plagued by technical problems due to a capital gale, but ended with rave reviews.

The noise levels at their concert tonight proved there were no such troubles - and those living nearby, and further afield, didn't even need to buy a ticket.

People on Twitter from as far away as Devonport reported that they could hear the show.

"What? Can I hear #ACDC in Devonport? Or is it the builders down the road having a beer?" they tweeted.

"I can hear the ACDC concert all the way at my place, and it's pretty great," wrote another.

"Some nice background music for a Tuesday night in Ponsonby."

Others weren't as surprised by the din.

"BREAKING: Twitter surprised to learn AC/DC play music quite loud."However, not everyone enjoyed it though: "Can hear #ACDC super obnoxiously loud from my house. In Freeman's Bay. #makeitstop."
