AC/DC: New WAAF Radio Special Posted Online

October 21, 2008

Boston's WAAF radio station has posted a six-part AC/DC special that features "Angus Young, Malcolm Young, Brian Johnson and the boys playing new AC/DC songs for you," according to a posting on the station's web site. Check it out at this location.

AC/DC's first album in eight years, "Black Ice", arrived on Monday (October 20) exclusively at Wal-Mart stores, Walmart.com and ACDC.com.

Wal-Mart will also be the exclusive retailer for AC/DC Live: Rock Band Track Pack, a special collection of songs for the Rock Band video game.

A world tour in support of "Black Ice" begins with a private "dress rehearsal" show on October 28 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Tickets for the trek are among the hottest of the year, with gigs selling out in record time and second nights being added in several major cities.

Although AC/DC does not sell its songs at digital retailers like iTunes, "Black Ice" leaked online two weeks ago. According to Internet tracking company Big Champagne, it was downloaded 100,000 times a day in the last week alone.

AC/DC has sold more than 200 million albums worldwide and is second only to THE BEATLES as the biggest selling act in the U.S. The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003.
