AC/DC Releases Countdown Teaser – Fans Can’t Contain Themselves

This week, AC/DC has set the internet abuzz by launching a mysterious countdown on their official website and social media platforms. Fans are eagerly anticipating the moment when the clock hits zero this Monday (Feb. 12) at 3 AM ET/midnight PT, but what exactly awaits them remains a mystery.

Accompanied by the question “ARE YOU READY” and the tune of their 1991 hit single, “Are You Ready,” from the album The Razors Edge, the teaser has sparked widespread speculation among fans. Many are speculating that the countdown’s end will coincide with a significant tour announcement.

The prospect of a new tour is particularly thrilling considering AC/DC’s sparse live appearances in recent years. Their last notable performance was at the Power Trip festival in California in October 2023, following their “Rock or Bust World Tour” from 2015 to 2016.

What’s in Store?

Currently, visitors to AC/DC’s website are greeted with the countdown timer alongside the invitation to sign up for updates. On social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter), the band is gradually unraveling the tease with daily clips featuring their iconic lightning bolt logo and the recurring question “ARE YOU READY,” with each day revealing a decreasing countdown number.

Despite speculation, it appears that the countdown’s conclusion on Monday is unrelated to the upcoming Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas. Although there were past suggestions of AC/DC appearing at the big game, it seems unlikely this time. Additionally, rumors are circulating about potential changes to AC/DC’s lineup for future tours, with some sources suggesting that bassist Cliff Williams may not be part of upcoming performances.
