AC/DC have officially launched the Rock Or Bust world tour with the first show in five years at the Coachella music festival in California.

The set only featured three songs from the recent Rock Or Bust album including the title track, ‘Play Ball’ and ‘Baptism of Fire’.

The band dug into the archives to perform ‘Have A Drink On Me’ for first time since 1985 and ‘Sin City’ first the time since 2001.

‘High Voltage’, a staple from the Black Ice tour has been retired from the set and songs from Black Ice including the title track, ‘Big Jack’ and ‘War Machine’ have also been dropped from the Rock Or Bust tour.

AC/DC also premiered the new line-up feature Stevie Young as replacement for his uncle Malcolm Young on guitar and Chris Slade back with the band for the first time in 20 years in place of the disgraced Phil Rudd, who is still facing an attempted murder charge in Nee Zealand.
