AC/DC UK found their first incarnation well over a decade ago and since then the band have established themselves as one of the globe's forerunners in the tribute scene, being invited to play many internationally renowned stages. The band has played in over 20 countries worldwide, at legendary festivals and venues to thousands. Notable shows include multiple sold out nights at Glasgow's O2 ABC, located only yards from where the historic "If You Want Blood" album was recorded; Sold out nights at Liverpool's Cavern club; a slot at Graspop Metal Meeting on the 7,500 cap metal dome stage playing after Iron Maiden; Stone Free at the Millennium Dome, closing the Indigo stage after Alice Cooper; the MainStage at Denmark's Herning Rocker in front of a sold out 15,000 capacity directly before headliner's "Nephew"; and Bospop, with headliner Santana.

In addition, AC/DC UK have had extended involvement with those either currently or formerly involved with the icons themselves. The band have shared the stage with Bob Richards (Play Ball / Rock Or Bust), Tony Currenti (High Voltage).
With support from fantastic young band Retsecrows.
