According to the PRNewswire, Plug Me In - the ultimate career- spanning DVD box set of live performances, interviews and more from AC/DC, the world''s most electrifying rock & roll band - has been certified Five Times Platinum by the RIAA. Released on Tuesday, October 16, Plug Me In debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Music Video chart and #1 on the SoundScan Top DVD Music Videos chart.

Plug Me In - the first AC/DC release since the band came to Columbia Records earlier this year - debuted at #1 in 12 countries around the world including the US, the UK, Australia, Canada, France, Spain, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, Ireland, Finland, and New Zealand.

Plug Me In - available in either a two DVD or deluxe triple DVD box set - brings together for the very first time an astonishing five hours of definitive live concert and television performances - many of them previously unavailable -chronicling the on-going career (now in its fourth decade!) of a groundbreaking rock & roll powerhouse whose music transcends the test of time.

The first disc of Plug Me In is devoted to the band''s formative years (1975-1979) with original lead singer, the late Bon Scott capturing the group in its full early glory with more than 20 performances beginning with a performance of 'High Voltage' performed in October 1975 on Australia''s King of Pop Awards and concluding with one of Bon Scott''s last concerts with the band before his tragic death on February 19, 1980.

Disc Two of the AC/DC Plug Me In DVD collection covers the band''s second great epoch: the Brian Johnson era which began with the release of 'Back In Black' in 1980 and continues to this day. Plug Me In includes a fantastic array of bonus material including the AC/DC Donington interview on the Old Grey Whistle Test (August 1984) and AC/DC''s in-concert performance of 'Rock Me Baby' with the ROLLING STONES.

The deluxe collector''s edition of Plug Me In contains a third DVD of 21 additional rare performances spanning both the Bon Scot and Brian Johnson eras as well as an expanded booklet and a treasure trove of facsimile reproductions of authentic AC/DC memorabilia (ticket stubs, concert posters, backstage passes, etc.).

The AC/DC Plug Me In DVD box set is both a Holy Grail for aficionados of AC/DC as well as an ideal and comprehensive introduction to the music and history of a pioneering band that continues to define the electrifying possibilities of rock & roll.

Formed in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by brothers Angus and Malcolm Young (still the most formidable electric guitar team in rock), AC/DC released its first album, High Voltage, in 1975. The group has gone on to sell nearly 70 million albums in the U.S. alone, making AC/DC one of the five best-selling bands in American music history. The Back In Black album has achieved RIAA Double Diamond status, for sales in excess of 21 million copies in the United States, and is the U.S.''s fifth largest-selling album ever. AC/DC was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2003.
