AC/DC, as expected, have added second shows in all cities of their upcoming Power Up tour – which will mark their first tour of their native Australia in over a decade. The sole exception is Adelaide, which will be one night only due to the band performing as part of the BP Adelaide Grand Final. The full updated tour schedule, as well as ticketing information, can be found below.
Upon going on sale last week (June 26th), the band officially broke Ticketek’s record for the largest on-sale day in the vendor’s 45-year-plus history – which they previously set themselves back in 2009 with their Black Ice stadium tour. According to promoter Christo Van Egmond, tickets for the Power Up tour moved at an average of 1,200 tickets per second. “The demand has been extraordinary,” he said. “This second Perth show will definitely be the final show that will be added to the Australian tour. We can confirm that absolutely no further shows will be added.”
AC/DC – ‘Shot In The Dark’
Joining the tour as main support will be Melbourne’s Amyl & The Sniffers, with local openers for each show to be announced in the coming months. AC/DC’s current line-up for live shows includes founding member and guitarist Angus Young, longtime lead singer Brian Johnson, rhythm guitarist (and Angus’ nephew) Stevie Young, American session drummer Matt Laug (filling in for absent drummer Phil Rudd) and former Jane’s Addiction bassist Chris Chaney (not to be confused with The Living End‘s Chris Cheney) – who officially serves as Cliff Williams’ stand-in following his retirement.
