AC/DC Announces First North American Tour in Nine Years
Variety ^ | 12/02/24 | Jen Aswad

Posted on 12/07/2024 11:31:22 AM PST by DallasBiff

AC/DC has unveiled dates for the 2025 “Power Up” North American tour — the band’s first dates on the continent since 2016.

It will also be singer Brian Johnson’s first run in an even longer time. During that 2016 tour, he suffered hearing loss and had to bow out — none other than Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose filled in for him.

The 13-date run kicks off on April 10, 2025, in Minneapolis at US Bank Stadium and concludes on May 28, in Cleveland at Huntington Bank Field. Along the way, the band will play the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. on April 18 and Soldier Field in Chicago on May 24.

Saw them in May 79, at the Stanley Theater in Pittsburgh, and the band UFO was the headliner.

AC/DC blew UFO out of the water.

It's Saturday have fun.

Flame away.

I saw them 3 times when Bon Scott was still the front man...
That’s how old I am.

I had to look up my ticket stubs but Dec. 83 for me. Only them. They didn’t share the stage that night. My only time and probably never again. Once was enough though. An amazing show.

I thought that they had already taken the highway to hell in order to end up in a place that they thought was not a bad place to be.

I saw them in about ‘97 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. They put on a great show despite the fact that it wasn’t exactly Madison Square Garden they were playing. My big takeaway was what a great work ethic the band has.

It just goes to show you that no matter how old you are you can still do dirty deeds done dirt cheap.

Bon Scott was the best front man ever. Brian has done a decent job filling his shoes, but you can’t beat the original.

1979 for me.

I was there to see Nugent and Blue Oyster Cult, they were not that well known at the time.

Didn’t care for them, loved ‘Back In Black, though.
