Big Rock and Roll bands usually start their tours, for example, in the United States and then move on to Europe. Other regions like South America, Asia, and Oceania are usually their third or fourth destinations. After 10 years AC/DC has finally announced new shows in Australia, country where the band was formed back in 1973.
“So far, only five dates have been announced, but with a lot of space between them, which leaves room for what older bands have been doing these days: adding multiple extra dates in the same location. The scheduled shows will happen next November and December in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane.
Their opening act in those shows will be the Australian Rock group Amyl and the Sniffers. The band is formed by Angus Young (Guitar), Brian Johnson (Vocals), Stevie Young (Guitar), Chris Chaney (Bass) and Matt Laug (Drums).
