Found a photo from a gig a few years ago.. Holding the one note I know for dear life

Hard to tell from that pic, but it looks like the 'ol F/D that AC/DC loves (an open D chord with your thumb on the low F). 
 
Or, you've had too much beer and you're just holding onto the guitar with your eyes closed hoping you won't drop it or fall over until the room stops spinning (been there!).

I think he's actually got his eyes closed because he thinks if he can't see The NagBap it doesn't exist.

My roommate cleaned and restrung his SG today so I got to play a little AC/DC (among other power chord-laden samplings).  Felt good!

Considering I know which band this is from, I know that it's not the F/D chord  
It's either an A (power chord), with a muted E string, or somewhere in a solo 
 
I'm very careful with alcohol be(er)fore gigs.
Have a couple of not so successful attempts at playing after a few too many

I must admit, I can stand in front of a cranked Marshall stack and just hit clean A power chords over and over.  There's just something extra there that other chords don't quite provide! Heh...

Some of the crappy parts of being broke over a long period...
