Axl Rose leads AC/DC in rare 'Live Wire' rendition
Guns'n'Roses frontman Axl Rose led rock band AC/DC in Greensboro, North Carolina, during an August 27 show with a rare performance of the latter's 1975 track "Live Wire."
Australian classic rock band AC/DC are currently touring North America, with Axl Rose replacing longtime English lead vocalist Brian Johnson, who left the tour in April.
Having just finished a North American tour with Guns'n'Roses, Rose is doubling up and joining AC/DC for 10 shows across the US, hitting Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Michigan, New York, and DC before a closing night in Pennsylvania.
The track had been frequently used as an opening song for AC/DC since its debut on second album "T.N.T.," but hadn't been played live since 1982, as Rolling Stone points out.
Footage of the August 27 performance was captured by SQUiERS, which had produced an AC/DC documentary, "Beyond the Thunder," featuring the band.
