The band make their triumphant return at Power Trip next month
Next month, AC/DC are set to play their first gig in seven years. Alongside the likes of Metallica, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Guns N’ Roses, and Tool, the band is slated to perform at Power Trip in Indio, California on Saturday, October 7. Ahead of the festival, the band confirmed that drummer Matt Laug will sit behind the kit, and longtime bassist Cliff Williams is coming out of retirement for the gig. While AC/DC have been touring for five decades, there’s still quite a few songs that have never seen the lights of a stage. While the band released their latest album, Power Up, in 2020, they haven’t gotten the chance to play any of the new songs in a live setting. Excluding their latest LP, here’s a list of every song that AC/DC still have never played live.

There it is, folks – all the rare gems that AC/DC have never dug out for a concert, according to our research and setlist.fm. A handful of these songs have reportedly been soundchecked, but never actually performed. The band will most likely play a song or two from their latest album, Power Up, at the upcoming Power Trip festival. Whether or not any tracks from this list will finally be heard in person, we’ll just have to wait and see.
