[edgie]

No way, they will easily pull 60k+, they aren't the type to do multiple shows like other acts that sell out, they need a venue as big as possible in each city

 

[footy75]

Last time they did multiple concerts in cities like 3 in Melbourne, Sydney etc. this time im not so sure due to age etc

Tickets have sold out in less than an hour to their gigs so far including Wembley 72k plus

 

[rumply]

Where did they play last time in Melb? Would think Etihad is too small.

 

[Angus Young]

Etihad..3 sold out concerts 70k each I believe.

 

[edgie]

Etihad..3 sold out concerts 70k each I believe.

70k?

A sporting capacity of around 55k absolute max + 15k standing on the oval? But you have to minus the stands behind the stage... hmmm, seems a bit high

Meh. I've seen them multiple times over the years but I didn't bother last time because they only played outdoor stadiums, which I hate.

10k at an indoor arena is as big as I'll go. They played a half dozen shows at the Sydney entertainment centre on the Razor's Edge tour. Now THAT was awesome.

Razor's Edge tour is what got me into them... I wasn't really interested before that. My cousin got me a ticket and wow I have never been blown away so much by a live music act. Still to this day nothing has come close.

wow 6 concerts in Melbourne

 

[Deathray]

They deserve glory for evermore but seriously they've been bereft of ideas since the opening track on 'for those about to rock'.

 

[ManWithNoName]

AC/DC are headlining Coachella.

That strikes me as a very bizarre choice.

 

[james Dean]

AC/DC are headlining Coachella.

That strikes me as a very bizarre choice.

Such an awful lineup for an amazing fesitval

 

[edgie]

The manager needs to explain himself

 

[rumply]

they shouldn't do festivals? have a bit of fun with some younger folk?

probably their last time around the block so why not

AC/DC have always done what AC/DC do, what AC/DC fans like to hear, and what makes them happy. This festival is definitely a very left field move for them.

Who's on drums?

Dunno, but I hear he's a killer.

 

[footy75]

Huge start to Grammy Awards with AC/DC...Highway to Hell was slowed down but they sounded good. Great to see Slade back on drums...love his sound.
