“It’s f–king AC/DC. That’s it,” exclaimed The Pretty Reckless, summing up their exhilaration at the prospect of sharing the stage with the legendary “Dirty Deeds” icons.
AC/DC’s Dynamic Line-Up and Tour Details
This European tour marks AC/DC’s triumphant return after nearly a decade, featuring a powerhouse line-up including singer Brian Johnson, guitarist Angus Young, rhythm guitarist Stevie Young, drummer Matt Laug, and Jane’s Addiction bassist Chris Chaney stepping in for longtime bassist Cliff Williams. Williams bid farewell to the band after the conclusion of their 2016 Rock or Bust tour, only to briefly rejoin for the 2020 Power Up album. In 2016, Guns ‘N Roses singer Axl Rose temporarily replaced Johnson, who experienced hearing loss issues.
Spanning across Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, the tour culminates in two electrifying shows at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium on July 3 and 7. The rock spectacle continues through Germany, Slovakia, and Paris before wrapping up at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland on August 17. This European tour marks AC/DC’s first string of gigs since their highly anticipated return to the stage at last year’s star-studded hard rock Power Trip Festival in Indio, California.
In conclusion, fans are in for an unforgettable experience as The Pretty Reckless joins forces with AC/DC, promising nights filled with electrifying performances and timeless rock anthems.
