AC/DC’s Power Up tour, its first U.S. run in nine years, will stop at the Rose Bowl
As a dedicated rock enthusiast who has witnessed the evolution of music through the decades, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement at the news that AC/DC is embarking on their first U.S. tour since 2015! Having grown up listening to their iconic tunes and even attending one of their epic concerts back in the day, it’s truly heartening to see the legendary Australian band continue to rock our world with their timeless music.
AC/DC has decreed it: Let there be rock.
I’m thrilled to share that after a six-year hiatus, the iconic Australian band I admire so much is embarking on its inaugural U.S. tour since 2015! Known as the Power Up tour, it’s set to span an exhilarating 13-city journey across North America this spring. The adventure commences on April 10 in Minneapolis and wraps up on May 28 in Cleveland – a date that I can hardly wait for! The band officially announced this exciting news just yesterday.
On our journey, we’ll be playing at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on April 18th. This iconic, 102-year-old stadium is currently being prepared for further renovations before the 2028 Olympic Games. During these games, soccer matches will be held within this historic UCLA football venue.
This year, AC/DC concluded the European part of its tour, named after their 2020 album “Power Up”. Dedicated to Malcolm Young, the band’s founding guitarist who passed away in 2017, this album marked AC/DC’s third No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 and was listed among the Top 50 Albums of 2020 by Rolling Stone.
In 2022, ‘Power Up’ was nominated for Grammys across three categories: Best Rock Album, Best Rock Performance, and Best Music Video for ‘Shot in the Dark.’
In the spring, Brian Johnson, the lead vocalist who had to leave the band’s last U.S. tour prematurely due to hearing issues, as well as Angus Young, the founding member and lead guitarist, Stevie Young on rhythm guitar (who took over for his uncle Malcolm in 2014), Matt Laug on drums, and Chris Chaney on bass, will all be performing.
Except for Chaney, who took over from AC/DC’s retired bassist Cliff Williams, the band last played in the U.S. at the 2023 Power Trip festival in Indio. At this event, the five-piece group showcased hits dating back to the 1980s “Back in Black” and up to the 1990’s “Thunderstruck.
On New Year’s Eve, 1973, AC/DC took the stage for the first time at the Chequers Nightclub in Sydney. Since then, they have sold over 200 million albums globally and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003.
Tickets for the U.S. leg of the Power Up tour go on sale Dec. 6 at noon on AC/DC’s website.
