Let the Reading speculation begin... if it hadn't done so already

[wilcox]

I cannot wait for this tour!!!

What i really want is an outdoor "homecoming" show at St James Park for Brian either this year or next. Could die happy then! Really wouldn't mind putting money in Ashley's pocket for AC/DC!

I'm sitting on the fence as to whether they'll do festivals in 09 now. Think it might be 2010 till we see a headlining festival show.

How about a homecoming gig in Glasgow then for the Young brothers aswell while we are at it?

[stramasher]

London/Manc/Birmingham only

Screw them. They were shite last time I saw them at the SECC. Terrible sound. Mud.

[loscfestivals]

Apparently they've added summer dates in Germany due to high demand so I'm sure it'll be the same over here.

They will milk this for EVERY penny

of course they will - they've been basically retired for around 15 years, and like most bands when they get to this stage, the main purpose is to top up their pension plans.

The original list of dates I saw had 4 dates at the 02, 2 at the start 2 at the end.

[thegremlin_1999]

is it me or is there a huge gap between the london date and the other 2? and a decent gap between manc and brum?

leaving space for extra shows no doubt...

I heard a rumour that Brian doesn't want to tour again after this. Anyone know if there's any truth in it? Hes that bit older than the others and they're none of them especially young anymore so perhaps he really has had enough?

I dont' see them playing festivals during the world tour, but as it'll end during the early part of next year if they're going to do it then I reckon 2010 will be the year.

[thomasowen]

Well, two of them are 'young'...

Did anyone manage tickets then? I'll be at the O2 Tuesday & Thursday.

[biffoire]

Even if AC/DC weren't to tour again, maybe Tina Turner will. Personally I can't tell the difference!

stadium dates at wembley and glasgow added to tour, could make festivals less likely, certainly rules out download i think as dates are in june.

[thomasowen]

Its never really looked great, I dont think the chance of them playing has decreased because of these dates. I dont think they will play unfortunatley. I think Greenday/ Arctic Monkeys/ Kings of Leon is looking more and more likely. For the first time in about 4 years, it seems Glastonbury will have stronger headliners

So with these two dates announced it seems that Download is definately off the table.

Neil alluded to an appearance at a festival with a 'rock pedigree' so do we think that will still happen and if so then where?

Oh i'm sorry.My bad,got my sources wrong.Don't believe NME haha!

[twenty_foot_chickens]

They've been taken off the rumour list now. I thought they'd be pretty likely - maybe Guns n Roses are looking a little more likely. I might be way off the mark though.
