That said getting to the bar and toilets was a pain esp as the day went on. I went up on a bus and they were parked in a quarry about 20/30 min walk, best thing is timing your exit I'd love to get one of the VIP seated tickets

Alas, the order was cancelled, due to the release of the book delayed by another year!
What a balls.
Anyone else read Brian's book, reading about his childhood and everything up to 1979 was interesting, after that we're into well worn territory, it only covers Back in Black and the last few years, wish there was more insights into life with AC/DC still it was a good read.
Are they going to tour next year ??
AC/DC look to be down to play a rock supershow along with GnR, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden and Tool this October.
Commence speculation as to whether this is a one-off thing or will it be part of a larger tour?
Defo a larger tour but they probably have to wait until this thing sells so they dont dilute the marketing.
...
Did someone say tour ??
A Castle in County Meath could be free next summer
They were quiet for a good while, would have been an awful shame if COVID prevented them from one last tour, hope there is more to come and the band gets to go out on their own terms.
Just seeing that a chap called Matt Laug is playing drums for them at Power Trip, never heard of him, but he's played for some big names, is Rudd not up it anymore or his criminal record causing problems.
I'd say Rudd can't get a visa for the U.S. due to his conviction and it was easier to get someone else to fill in.
Haven't seen any footage of gig last night, but that looks like a great setlist.
If You Want Blood, Riff Raff, Stiff Upper Lip.
Throw in Gone Shootin' and it would be perfect, if they do tour and I get a chance to see them I'd be happy with that.
Great setlist but Brians vocals...oh dear, horrendously bad :-(
Given he's 76 and his voice has been teetering on the brink for 30 odd years it's a minor miracle he has any voice at all.
oh yeah, totally agree, but listening to the odd few tracks from last night, not a chance does his voice hold out for a farewell tour
Somebody's started a rumour on Facebook that Phil Rudd is potless and is trying to raise money for a medical operation by selling memorabilia out of the boot of his car. Take this with a massive pinch of salt.
