For Those About to Rock: Monsters in Moscow [1] is a 1992 film featuring live performances by rock and heavy metal bands AC/DC, Metallica, The Black Crowes, Pantera, and E.S.T. in the Tushino Airfield in Moscow, during the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

In September 1991, only a month after the August Putsch failed, 500,000 rock music fans converged in Moscow to enjoy the first open-air rock concert, as part of the Monsters of Rock series. For Those About to Rock: Monsters in Moscow also offers a look at the efforts of the Soviet 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 two of AC/DC's live albums, AC/DC Live and AC/DC Live: 2 CD Collector's Edition.
