I'd be very surprised if they don't do more dates, they just released an album!

Tons of regions did not get shows

They also released an album in 2015 and did only 6 months worth of shows.  They are my favourite band and I would love to see more, but Damon’s attention moves very quickly to the next project. Maybe in 2-3 years time.

Not such a big dance floor filler.

The HAAI mix is the dance floor filler you need.

Not sure The Pyramid is ready for face melting techno though.

Damon cried like a baby when Brian Dowling won Big Brother. 

"Best TV show in the world".

 

Was a stellar BB to be fair...

I'd take AC/DC on the proviso that

they somehow bring bon scott back from the dead.

there's a 1970s "rock goes to college" of ac/dc with bon scott and it is just the best  thing ever (think it was in colchester, it was - says so in the end credits)

A worse enunciater than Reg. Unpopular opinion I know but I preferred Brian Johnson. At least you could understand what he was singing.

Would like to see them (well, Angus + whoever's in the band this week) headline but think £££ means no.

it would be another definitely not contemporary old rockers act but on a different level to gnr.

Last thing we need is more comedy rock

[The Nal]

Love me a bit of AC/DC but they get a bit samey after about 30 minutes. 

That said, yes please. Last chance saloon. Amazed Brian can still sing anything these days, especially like this.

They're playing Riff Raff, which reason enough to genuflect and adopt a 'we're not worthy' stance.

And Givin The Dog a Bone for serious lols

Oh, she's blowing me crazy
'Til my ammunition is dry

Oh, she's using her head again
She's using her head
Oh, she's using her head again

I'm just a givin' the dog a bone
Givin' the dog a bone
Givin' the dog a bone
Givin' the dog a bone
I'm just a givin' the dog a bone
Givin' the dog a bone
I'm just a givin' the dog a bone
Givin' the dog a bone

Bit of old blues filth. Lucille Bogan would approve.

[Skip997]

Imagine the reaction if a black rap artist sang that

[CaledonianGonzo]

Kendrick did Backstreet Freestyle and noone batted an eyelid.  Not that race has anything to do with it.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Anyway I'd be a bit more optimistic regarding Dacca if GnR had brought Angus out back in June (giving Emily an opportunity to pounce on the pint-sized axe-wielder)

If AC/DC tour next year, I can't see them being bothered about a festival that pays peanuts (and which they have no allegiance to) when they can earn megabucks playing the world's stadia. It's not as if they need the exposure.

Re AC/D, quote from another forum

Quote

Seen a few clips on youtube.
They have been a tribute act for some time now, but now they are a circus act.

Time to pack it in, lads.

But efests seem to enjoy has been comedy rock

[CaledonianGonzo]

Always interested to hear the views of the lads at the Bedwetters forum.

[JayDiesel]

Not hopeful (or particularly keen) of AC/DC playing the farm, but I do think to dismiss them because of the money is foolish. Guns N Roses played literally last year, and they're absolute weapons for the bag - if they did it, anyone can

[crumbler]

Brian sounded awful at Power Trip but ultimately it's AC/DC and I'd still have a great time regardless.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Elton blowing away the I'm Dill Danding Doubters hasn't really impacted how much faith people have in YouTube clips.

Agreed. I cannot see any part of them thinking, oh we haven't done Glastonbury.

Same for The Stones late 2012 tour, Macca in early 2022....
