Official AC/DC Thread

I'll wait like I waited for Metallica.

I'll wait even longer to find a copy somewhere other than Wal*Mart.

Can't you buy it direct from AC/DC's website?

After I paid off all my credit cards (all three of them), I promptly chopped them up.

I keep my money in my boots now.

No prob!  Just click on the "Pay with Boot Money" link. 

EDIT: Oh, and  for getting off the cards.

It would be nice of they played Edinburgh but I doubt it since no one seems to play Edinburgh. It's all Glasgow nowadays. Rant, rave.

Austalian hard rock legends AC/DC have added a second show in Stockholm, Sweden due to overwhelming demand. Tickets to the band's initial date, February 20 at Globen, reportedly sold out in a record-breaking 11 minutes after they went on sale at 10:00 a.m. today (Saturday, October 11), prompting the group to announce another show at the same venue for February 22. Tickets to the second concert were released at 10:20 a.m. and reportedly were gone within 24 minutes.

To get into shape for the upcoming AC/DC tour, lead singer Brian Johnson has hired a personal trainer.  The 61-year-old Johnson says of Nick Harris, who trains race car drivers, "I've asked him to come and give me a two-week assault course and really beat the living crap out of me. I don't want anybody to go to the gig and just go, 'You should have seen them 10 years ago.'"

I love the last line in this...It makes me very excited for the show...Brians a class A guy

[mrlee]

You know people from my generation suck when no one wants to go to an AC/DC gig.

Kinda off topic but, I kinda wish Vince Neil had that same attitude this past summer...

Australian Stores Start Selling AC/DC's 'Black Ice' Early - Oct. 17, 2008

Paul Cashmere of Undercover News reports that stores across Australia have broken the embargo for AC/DC's long-awaited new album, "Black Ice", and started selling the CD early. Despite the fact that the album's official Australian release is tomorrow (Saturday, October 18), "Black Ice" is being sold now by just about every store that has it.

One Australian retailer told Undercover News, "We don't care about embargos and the fans don't care about charts. We are here to sell music and the fans are here to buy it. I couldn't care less if Sony has an embargo on it until tomorrow. My customers want it today and I'm giving it to them."
