The rock and roll carnival that is Axl Rose-fronted AC/DC will be coming to North America. 2016’s oddest rock and roll pairing — that has totally worked out! — has announced a handful of North American dates for August and September, which kick off just a few days after Rose finishes up his run with Guns N’ Roses.
Ladies and gentlemen, the hardest working man in rock is Sir Axl Rose.
Check out the updated shows below, and note that, no, there is no Boston-area date as of yet. If they were to play New England, it would likely be in somewhere between that September 11 date in Buffalo and the September 17 show in Washington, D.C. Most of the concerts confirmed below are in arenas, so depending on the Bruins and Celtics schedules, we could be getting a show on Causeway Street.
Guns N’ Roses, of course, play two shows at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro July 19 and 20.
