According to KOMO News, Seattle's EMP Museum will host AC/DC: Australia's Family Jewels starting Friday, April 27th.
“The exhibit is awesome,” said EMP Media and Communications Manager Anita Woo. “Fans will obviously love it, but everyone will recognize the music. The band is such dynamic performers.”AC/DC: Australia's Family Jewels takes a look at a band who have produced 18 original albums spanning four decades, shifting more than two million copies in the process.
The exhibit features over 400 items of memorabilia, including photographs, instruments, gig posters, lyrics and clothing.
Among the extremely rare garments on display is one of Angus Young's schoolboy outfits, plus the home-sewn Super Ang costume and satin cape worn by the legendary guitarist in 1975.
Bon Scott's Highway To Hell sweatshirt and his last leather jacket are also featured.
More than three hours of live concert footage, interviews and video clips charting the history of the group will play on screens and projectors dotted around the exhibition.
This footage ends with recordings from AC/DC's Monsters of Rock shows at Castle Donington in the UK.
