For Those About to Rock is the name of a video containing live performances by AC/DC, Metallica, The Black Crowes, Pantera and E.S.T. in the Tushino Airfield in Moscow, during the implosion of the Soviet Union.

In September 1991, only a few days after the August Putsch failed, 1.6 million rock music fans converged in Moscow to enjoy the very first open-air rock concert, part of the Monsters of Rock series. For Those About To Rock…We Salute You: Monsters in Moscow also offers a look at the efforts of the Russian Army to try to postpone the concert (not on the original VHS release). The versions of Whole Lotta Rosie and The Jack that AC/DC performed at this concert were released on 2 of AC/DC's live albums, AC/DC Live and AC/DC Live: 2 CD Collector's Edition.
