Back in 2016, Johnson was forced to quit the band to avoid losing his hearing. Since then, Guns N’ Roses’ Axl Rose has been singing with AC/DC. The band have certainly been through a lot, with drummer Phil Rudd unable to join the Rock or Bust tour due to ongoing legal problems, bassist Cliff Williams quitting and Malcolm Young’s death following a dementia diagnosis. Nevertheless, his brother Angus, Johnson and others look to be bringing some new AC/DC music and a tour to fans in the near future.
Now Radio DJ Eddie Trunk claims Johnson will rejoin AC/DC to tour with their upcoming tribute album to Malcolm.
Trunk said: “I have sources that have told me that they are absolutely going to tour with Brian back again.
“That’s all unconfirmed from their camp, but I had it from some reliable sources.”
“I think it’s pretty much a done deal that AC/DC, at the very least, are going to release some sort of record and it’ll be some sort of tribute to Malcolm [Young] just like Back in Black was a tribute to Bon [Scott].“
