AC/DC Concludes Power Up 2024 Tour with Epic Dublin Performance
AC/DC brought their Power Up 2024 European tour to a thrilling conclusion on Saturday night with a high-voltage performance at Dublin’s Croke Park. This marked the final show of their first extended tour in eight years, leaving fans electrified and eager for more.
The legendary rock band delivered a 21-song setlist that stayed consistent throughout most of their Power Up tour dates. Kicking off with the explosive “If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It)” followed by the iconic “Back in Black,” AC/DC set the tone for an unforgettable night. The band also showcased “Demon Fire” from their 2020 album Power Up, seamlessly blending new material with their classic anthems.
Fans were treated to a plethora of hits spanning AC/DC’s illustrious career, including “Hells Bells,” “Shoot to Thrill,” “Highway to Hell,” “Let There Be Rock,” “Rock ‘n’ Roll Train,” and “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.” The night ended on a high note with a powerful two-song encore featuring “T.N.T.” and the fan-favorite “For Those About to Rock (We Salute You).”
How AC/DC Defied the Odds on the Power Up 2024 Tour
The Power Up 2024 tour was AC/DC’s first major outing since the Rock or Bust tour in 2016, a tour fraught with challenges. During that tour, frontman Brian Johnson had to step down due to severe hearing loss, leading to Guns N’ Roses’ Axl Rose stepping in for nearly two dozen shows.
Fast forward four years, and Johnson made a triumphant return for the Power Up tour, despite lingering concerns about his ability to endure the demands of a full-scale tour. The band’s much-anticipated return to the stage began in late 2023 at the Power Trip festival in Indio, California. Despite skepticism, particularly about the 76-year-old Johnson’s stamina, AC/DC silenced doubters when they kicked off the Power Up trek in May, proving they still have the power to rock audiences around the world.
AC/DC’s final show in Dublin not only closed the chapter on the Power Up 2024 tour but also reaffirmed the band’s place as one of rock’s most enduring and electrifying acts.
