Their current line-up has Brian Johnson (Vocals), Cliff Williams (Bass), Angus Young (Guitar) and Stevie Young (Guitar). The fans of the band have an expectation that the show at the Power Trip festival was a test event for the band to take the next step, which would be a world tour.
The Power Trip festival happened last weekend with Guns N’ Roses, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, AC/DC, Metallica and Tool at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California.
