Angus Young and Cliff Williams gives Planet Rock an update on how AC/DC's European tour has been going to far.

“Each show has been getting more more exciting,” says Young. "We're getting a lot of enthusiastic response.”

“And with Axl (Rose) we’ve been able to mix up the setlist, which we haven't done in a number of years,” he adds. “Now he been able to put in a lot of different tracks. And the fun part is when we get there on the stage and seeing it come to life in front of the audience and seeing the reaction.”

While packing out stadiums across Europe to rave reviews from critics and fans alike this summer, AC/DC have today announced full details of their re-scheduled US tour dates. The AC/DC Rock Or Bust World Tour returns to America for ten final shows in August and September 2016. They are in Greensboro, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, Columbus, Cleveland. Detroit, Buffalo, New York, Washington and Philadelphia. Original tickets will be honoured for all rescheduled dates, refunds are available at point of purchase.

AC/DC have played to over 4 million fans on the Rock Or Bust World Tour and the current lineup of Angus Young, Cliff Williams, Stevie Young, Chris Slade and Axl Rose are set to continue their global trek with a return, for the final leg, to the US.

Not for the first time last year, AC/DC were hailed as the biggest selling live act in the world when, sadly, vocalist Brian Johnson was forced to step down midway through the US tour after being advised by doctors that he risked total hearing loss if he continued to perform live. For the shows in Europe with Axl Rose on vocals, AC/DC have been surprising fans by including rarely played tunes from their formidable archive such as “Rock ‘N’ Roll Damnation”, “Riff Raff”, “Touch Too Much” and “If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It)”.

Angus Young commented: “This band has got a ton of energy and you’re going to see a fusion of all that terrific chemistry that we have felt ever since rehearsals in Lisbon. I want to get back out there onstage in the US with these guys so our audience can see and feel it too.”

The rescheduled Rock Or Bust US dates are:

August
27 - Greensboro, NC - Greensboro Coliseum
30 - Ft. Lauderdale, FL - BB&T Center

September
1 - Atlanta, GA - Phillips Arena
4 - Columbus, OH - Nationwide Arena
