Different favorites all through the set included “Stiff Higher Lip,” “Thunderstuck,” “Soiled Deeds Finished Low-cost,” “Freeway to Hell,” “Entire Lotta Rosie,” and “Let There Be Rock.” AC/DC closed out the present with an encore of “T.N.T.” and “For These About to Rock (We Salute You).”
AC/DC are touring in help of their 2020 album Energy Up, from which they carried out the songs “Demon Fireplace” and “Shot within the Darkish.”
Whereas the band did play a one-off gig at California’s Energy Journey pageant in October 2023, the Minneapolis present marked the beginning of the band’s first stateside tour since a 2016 outing that noticed Axl Rose take over for Johnson because of the latter’s listening to points.
Johnson rejoined the band for the Energy Up album, together with traditional members Cliff Williams (bass) and Phil Rudd (drums). Nevertheless, Williams retired from the band after the Energy Journey live performance, whereas Rudd by no means resumed touring with AC/DC regardless of showing on the album.
The Fairly Reckless, led by singer Taylor Momsen, opened the live performance, taking part in a nine-song set, together with three tunes from their newest album, Demise by Rock and Roll.
