4 Questions We Still Have About AC/DC and Axl Rose

Is Brian Johnson truly OK with this plan? How does this impact Guns N' Roses?

Published by

AC/DC recently revealed that Axl Rose will be singing with them this summer, but there’s still a lot we don’t know.

As crazy as it seems, AC/DC ”“ or at least what’s left of it ”“ are just two and a half weeks away from launching a European stadium tour with Axl Rose on lead vocals. Guitarist Malcolm Young had to leave the group following their 2010 tour due to dementia, drummer Phil Rudd had serious legal issues that legally prevented him from leaving New Zealand, and frontman Brian Johnson has hearing problems that make touring impossible. One might think that last blow would be enough to bring the Rock or Bust Tour to a screeching halt, but Angus Young and Cliff Williams seem determined to see this thing through to the end. They also seem determined to do it without uttering a word to the press other than carefully constructed press releases, and Axl Rose hasn’t made himself available either. This strategy has led to all sorts of lingering questions about the bizarre state of AC/DC, not to mention Guns N’ Roses. Here are four of them.
