After weeks of speculation, Axl Rose has been confirmed as the replacement for AC/DC fronter Brian Johnson. For now, the band writes in a statement, Rose will be helping AC/DC wrap up its Rock or Bust world tour. “We are dedicated to fulfilling the remainder of our touring commitments to everyone that has supported us over the years, and are fortunate that Axl Rose has kindly offered his support to help us fulfill this commitment. AC/DC will resume their Rock or Bust World Tour with Axl Rose joining on vocals,” the statement said. “Following this European run of dates with AC/DC, Axl Rose will head out on his Guns N’ Roses Not in This Lifetime Summer Stadium Tour. The 10 postponed U.S. shows will be rescheduled and announced imminently, also with Axl Rose.” Now there is speculation that AC/DC will join GNR on their summer reunion tour, although those rumors have not been confirmed. AC/DC recently canceled a slate of shows after Johnson was advised by doctors to stop touring or face “total hearing loss.” Copyright(c) 2016 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
