Lets talk about AC/DC

[tullux]

Seems they are starting again in 2020. Spotted recording with Brian Johnson and Phil Rudd again in Vancouver,

most of them are british born,  so i think they have a closeness to the Festival.

Would be a fablous opportunity for a Comeback.

Headliners all already sorted, unless they pull out a MASSIVE 'rock slot' booking then I cannot see it

[chazwwe]

From whats been said by a lot of people and will continued to be said.

The next 2 headliners are both solo artists, 1 male and 1 female.

Yes, they're notoriously sentimental.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Not gunna happen for 2020, but a tour might.

100% on that.

Saw them at Wembley a few years ago. As good as it gets really.

[Ayrshire Chris]

Saw  them at Hampden Park , Glasgow, they were absolutely terrific. Can’t see the cannons wanting to be fired anywhere but the pyramid. What a rock slot they would be, but that’s is incredibly unlikely.  Shame,  if you want blood is one of my favourite live albums along with deep purple, made in Japan!

Those photos are 18 months old. Can see a 2020 tour mind you.

Waiting for @Superscally to come flying in and shoot this down again

Can't remember the rationale @tullux but pretty sure this one's been killed off already

Interesting to see BJ is back considering they dropped him like a hot rock when he had his ear problems. Obviously wasn’t as acrimonious as the press lead people to believe.

Had they wanted to play  Glastonbury they would have done it already ! 

They have been asked about it before and the reply was not complimentary about the Glasto audience .

I remember that and i do sort of think they were put on the spot , but BJ's comments were  hardly encouraging.

And obviously Mr Eavis did not ask , cos it did not happen 

 Metallica ( well Lars ) and Foo's wanted to play Glasto and made sure it could happen - DC nah !

You're fucking kidding me. 

There will be no Glastonbury.

No tour. 

Likely no album.

You may get a couple of tracks on a celebratory release. That's it. 

Put. This. To. Rest.

It makes me sad. Sorry to shout.

It's great to see the boys back together though, some lovely photo's coming out.

I read it, passed out, woke up, trashed the house, drank a bottle of whisky, went out, found a few kittens to kick, trashed the house again, read the OP to check I hadn't got it wrong, had a cup of tea, then posted.

Please keep politics off this thread, posting a photo of Alex salmond and Nicola sturgeon really annoys this old socialist!

They don’t need Glastonbury for one second to bolster ticket sales and album sales. When there stadium shows go on sale they sell out in hours ! That’s why they’ve sold over 200 million albums and are one of the biggest bands of all time.
