In other news, according to a number of outlets, former AC/DC drummer Chris Slade, who performed with the band from 1989 to 1994, including their multi-platinum 1990 album, The Razors Edge, is rumored to be filling in for Phil Rudd on the band’s upcoming Grammy performance on February 8th. Rudd is set to attend a court hearing on February 10th to face his charges in Tauranga, New Zealand.
Rudd, 60, is facing threatening to kill, possession of methamphetamine and possession of cannabis in Tauranga following a police raid on his home. He was originally also charged with attempting to procure a murder, but that was withdrawn the following day. Angus previously said Rudd’s participation in the band’s future endeavors would be problematic as they would be touring to promote their album in May. Part of Rudd’s bail conditions is to reside in his Tauranga home.
Angus Young also said that even before Rudd was charged, the band had been experiencing problems with Rudd. The drummer apparently missed video and photo shoots, prompting the other rockers to question his commitment to the band. But Rudd was adamant to return to work with AC/DC. In his first interview since he was arrested, he told One News that he would be back with the band, and “I don’t care who likes it and who doesn’t.”
