Rock and Roll history was made! AC/DC, the titans of hard rock, unleashed a blast from the past during their Australian tour kickoff in Melbourne on Wednesday, November 12th. They resurrected their electrifying performance of "Jailbreak," a song they hadn't played live in a staggering 34 years!
This unexpected revival of the Bon Scott-era track from the Dirty Deeds Done Cheap album was a highlight, appearing as the 13th song in their impressive 21-song setlist. The concert was a true feast for fans, packed with timeless classics that have defined generations. Imagine the energy as they blasted through hits like "Back in Black," "Thunderstruck," "Hells Bells," "You Shook Me All Night Long," "Whole Lotta Rosie," and the epic set-closer, "For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)."
But here's where it gets interesting... While "Jailbreak" wasn't on the setlist for the 2025 North American leg of their "Power Up" tour, there's a glimmer of hope for fans across the pond. Could it make an appearance during the recently announced 2026 North American leg, which begins on July 11th in Charlotte, North Carolina? Only time will tell!
This raises a question: Do you think AC/DC should include more deep cuts like "Jailbreak" in their future tours, or should they stick to the tried-and-true hits? Share your thoughts in the comments! What other long-lost AC/DC tracks would you love to hear live?
