When was the last time they toured and how long will it be?

It is the group's first U.S. tour in nine years and is a limited 13-stadium run. The "Power Up" tour shares its name with the LP from 2020 which hit #1 in 21 countries. AC/DC's album "Back in Black" is the second highest-grossing album of all time, only behind Michael Jackson's "Thriller."
