AC/DC have played their first show since 2016 performing in the California desert for Power Trip 2023.
The show premiered former Alice Cooper, Slash and Alanis Morissette drummer Matt Laug with AC/DC.
Two songs, ‘Demon Fire’ and ‘Shot In The Dark’ from the most recent album ‘Power Up’ (2020) were played for the first time.
‘Stiff Up Lip’ was performed for the first time in 20 years. AC/DC last performed it in London on 21 October, 2003.
‘Dog Eat Dog’ was last played in 2016 in Prague but in that time Axl Rose was filling in for Brian Johnson as lead singer. Johnson last performed it with AC/DC in 2009.
The AC/DC Power Trip show was the first AC/DC show since 17 September, 2016 in Washington DC, the last show of the Rock or Bust tour with Axl Rose on vocals when Brian was dumped because of hearing issues.
The Power Trip show is the only AC/DC show of 2023. At this stage no further shows have been announced.
