‘Given The Dog A Bone’ is being played again for the first time in 35 years. AC/DC only ever played the ‘Back In Black’ chestnut seven times in 1980. The last time the band played the track was October 27, 1980 in Sheffield, UK.

The other song being played for the first time in 2016 is the Rock Or Bust album track is ‘Got Some Rock and Roll Thunder’, replacing the Rock or Bust lead song ‘Play Ball’.

The shows are the first for AC/DC since completing the Australian and New Zealand leg of the Rock or Bust world tour in Auckland, New Zealand on December 15, 2015.

AC/DC next play on Feb 8 in Denver.
