Live/Wire is the AC/DC Tribute show. The unique six man tribute to one of rock music's greatest band  are back with their ‘RISING POWER’ tour that's bigger, better and louder than before complete with cannons, a wall of Marshalls and over two hours of High Voltage Rock 'n' Roll.

Both the Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras of AC/DC are included in the same show with two very individual singers treading the boards.

 

Jon portrays the legendary front man, Bon Scott - AC/DC's original vocalist and a wild man of rock and roll whose untimely death shocked the world in 1980. His death came at a time when the band was sampling global success for the first time.  Pete, then dons the flat cap as Geordie vocalist Brian Johnson who AC/DC turned to in order to fill the void left by Bon. Brian's searing vocals iced Back in Black - one of the best selling hard rock albums of all time! Pete brings the Live/Wire show bang up to date with classic ‘Brian’ songs and includes some tracks from AC/DC’s recent and hugely successful new album, ‘Black Ice’. 

 

The frenzied schoolboy antics of Angus Young on lead guitar are faithfully reproduced by Lorne, dressed in Angus’s signature school uniform. Armed with the famous Gibson SG guitar and playing with superb style and feel, he duck-walks his way through the show, getting the crowd on their feet and rocking. All this is backed up by a thundering freight train of a rhythm section. Expect to hear classics such as 'Whole Lotta Rosie', 'Highway To Hell', 'Thunderstruck' and 'Back In Black'.
