I had the chance to see them in 2001 but couldn't be ringed. Nothing's changed really. I don't like AC/DC that much anyway.

Haven't seen AC/DC since Donington '84,and don't expect to see them any time soon either.
Good band though.

European tour dates have been announced: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbe ... mID=106632

'Tis only a matter of time until the UK dates are announced, I hope.

The Answer are supporting them in the US so wouldn't be surprising to find them touring europe with them aswell

I think Heretic should support them in the UK.

Check out the prices they're charging abroad. The average ticket price for mainland europe is 72 euros, which translates roughly to SIXTY english pounds. Add the booking charges etc onto that and you've got a ticket that'll set you back nearly £70!
I really hope it's just europe getting screwed and they charge just the usual £35 over here. I'm not holding my breath though...

On a happier note, the new album rocks.

£35, are you serious? There's no way! It'll be at least £50, if not more, and I wouldn't be surprised. Bejesus, even the Priest Feast at Wembley Arena was £37.50 (before fees), imagine how much more AC/DC at the O2 (presuming they'll play there) will be!

I'm glad the new album rocks, I've heard a few tracks off youtube and it sounds rocking indeed (although it could do with being a bit faster), I shall purchase it next week.

I meant before booking fees etc obviously. £45-£50 would be acceptable but considering you can see quality three or four band line-ups for that price (Christ, it's only thirty quid less than I paid for a weekend Bloodstock ticket!), then another twenty odd quid for just two acts is asking a bit much.
Have they not heard there's a Credit Crunch on the loose?

I wonder who will be supporting. I hope it's me.

It really is asking too much, but that won't stop them. I mean bloody hell, Led Zeppelin was £125! And even The Police was £80. This will basically be one of the most expensive gigs ever.
