First the United States and Canada. Now the UK and Europe. Will AC\/DC<\/a> then recalibrate their cannons for a tour of Australia and New Zealand?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t bet against it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Aussie rock heavyweights are hitting the road once again this year in support of their 2020 album “Power Up”, with a batch of dates booked on both sides of the Atlantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Overnight, Angus Young and Co. announced a second European run this year, which will see the rockers play 12 open-air dates across 10 countries \u2013 including Edinburgh, Scotland, the birthplace of the Young clan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though touring Australia has its challenges, and costs, the rockers can always expect a massive, warm homecoming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AC\/DC last played ANZ in 2015 as part of their “Rock or Bust” world tour. On that occasion, the Rock Hall-inducted legends shifted more than 520,000 tickets across 11 coast-to-coast dates, including shows in Auckland and Wellington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their previous tour Down Under was the record-busting “Black Ice” stadium run of 2009, which sold some 750,000 tickets, including 650,000 in Australia alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
