It's not every day that you get an invitation to open for the Rolling Stones at a 450-capacity open-air show, and only a fool would turn down such an offer. And, contrary to some people’s opinion, AC/DC are far from foolish.
Although June 2003 found the five-piece scattered across the globe during the writing of a new album that was rumoured to be produced by Robert John ‘Mutt’ Lange (Highway To Hell, Back In Black and For Those About To Rock) when the offer arrived, AC/DC dropped everything and flew to Europe to warm up for the Stones' gig, which was scheduled for the following month in Toronto, Canada.
