Rumours of AC/DC‘s retirement has arisen in Australia following an Australia Radio Station reporting that the band are to retire due to a band member’s illness. The member of the band in question is rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young. The rumours came from an anonymous email sent to Perth Radio Station, identifying themselves as ‘Thunderstruck’.
They said: ‘I have extremely good contacts in Europe that are very close to AC/DC. I have it on very good authority that one of the band members is quite ill and has returned to Australia with his family. AC/DC members have previously made a pact that no band members will be replaced should someone need to leave the band. No more is currently being said, however the particularly ill member of AC/DC’s son has stated that AC/DC may well be over.’
However, it is also been reported and rumoured ‘according to a music industry source’ that the rock legends have booked a six-week recording session in Vancouver in May. More information is being gathered to understand the truth of the situation, and the future of AC/DC.
