La AC / DC tour, which has just started its journey through the United States, is about to be suspended, or at least touch up. The Australian band has been forced to restructure its concert schedule until April 4, on medical advice. The problem is that, according to the doctors who treat the singer, Brian Johson, he could lose all his hearing if the tour is not stopped.
The mythical band is presenting live his work Rock or bust, 2014, throughout the United States. The arrival in Europe was scheduled for May, with a concert in Lisbon on the 7th and another on the 10th in Seville. However, these two shows are not guaranteed.
Let us remember that in this world tour one of the founding members was already on the sidelines, also due to health problems, Malcolm Young, who also did not participate in the recording from last job due to dementia diagnosis. He was replaced by his nephew, Stevie Young.
El drummer Phil Rudd Nor can he participate in the tour, because he was arrested for drug possession and death threats, being replaced by Chris Slade.
Formation has suspended ten concerts in the US, although it has not yet been clarified what will happen with the show scheduled for Seville on May 10. The group had planned to travel to Atlanta, and play in April in New York. Through an official statement, the band has apologized and assured that the tour will resume throughout 2016, but with a new singer.
The Australian band, as they have ensured in that statement, will try to compensate those shows "surely with a guest vocalist."
The group is used to these setbacks. In 1980, its second vocalist, Bon Scott, passed away from an excess of alcohol, although his death still remains a true mystery. Brian Johson would replace him.
