AC/DC Family Jewels Going On Display
. AC/DC have sold more than 200 million albums worldwide since 1975 and continue to perform and record to great acclaim. Their most recent album release, Black Ice (2008), peaked at #1 across 27 countries, selling more than 1,700,000 units in its first week. The Black Ice world tour concluded in June and was the second most profitable tour of all time. "There is little doubt that, after 35 years on the world stage, AC/DC are by far Australia's most successful and influential performing artists," said exhibition curator Tim Fisher. "AC/DC Australia's Family Jewels links the material history of the band to the experience of their music. The exhibition also tries to convey the place that AC/DC holds for their devoted fans." This first-ever exhibition about AC/DC explores the history and milestones of this phenomenal band, from their formation and early Australian chart success to their explosion onto the international stage, the sudden death of lead singer Bon Scott, and the next chapter in the group's history with new lead singer Brian Johnson and the subsequent release of some of the biggest and most successful albums in rock 'n' roll history. - more on this story
