AC/DC - Magnetic Hill Concert To Have On-Site Sexual Assault Nurse

A new position is being added to the team of 70 physicians, nurses, paramedics and first responders will be volunteering at the AC/DC concert, reports CBC.ca. A sexual assault nurse examiner will be on site to remind concert goers that consent doesn't mix with alcohol.

Trena Brown is managing the Magnetic Hill concert site medical team and says the new position was added as a proactive move.

"Our goal is to keep everybody safe, and there's always been a little bit of lingering concern that certainly some of the behaviours that go with the hill increase your risk for certain things. You can't consent under the influence of anything so there's always been a little bit of concern there."

AC/DC appears on the Billboard.com Hot Tours tally at #3 with $4 million in sales reported from an outdoor Canadian performance on August 28th at the Plaines d’Abraham in Quebec City. Promoted by Live Nation and Montreal-based event producer evenko, the concert drew 48,588 fans.

The legendary Australian rock group is on the road in North American through the end of September in support of its November 2014 release, Rock Or Bust. The band appeared at the Coachella Music Festival in April before playing 24 cities in Europe from May 5th through July 25th. A North American leg began on August 22nd and will feature performances in 11 stadiums during a five-week run that wraps at the end of September. The Quebec performance was the first of three outdoor events staged in Canadian markets during the trek. Finally, in November and December, the band will return home to wrap the tour with a seven-city swing through Australia and New Zealand.
