This week, AC/DC announced the North American leg of their Power Up tour. And when they hit those stadiums in 2025, it will be 45 years since Brian Johnson became the band’s singer, replacing the late, great Bon Scott.
It was in March 1980 that Brian was invited to audition for AC/DC. But as he revealed in an interview with Classic Rock, he was so broke at that time that he didn’t have the money to travel from his home in Newcastle to the audition in London - and he might not have made it unless another job in London fell into his lap.
