Just days before their highly anticipated Australian tour begins, AC/DC will be the subject of a 7 News television special.

• Will AC/DC’s Aus Tour Power A Record-Breaking Performance Of The Largest-Ever Bagpipe Ensemble?

The news programme will explore AC/DC’s extraordinary legacy by sharing the story about how two brothers from suburban Sydney – Angus and Malcolm Young – would go on to form one of the biggest musical acts of all time.

Airing on Sunday (2 November) at 9 pm AEDT on Seven and 7plus, AC/DC - The World’s Greatest Rock Band will showcase long-lost tapes and feature new interviews with the inside scoop about how the Aussie rockers took over the globe.

AC/DC’s story won’t be told only by insiders, but also by those who have worshipped the band and drawn from their music in their own bands. 7 News has secured exclusive interviews with Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl, You Am I’s Tim Rogers, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash, Amyl And The Sniffers’ Amy Taylor and Declan Mehrtens, and Wolfmother’s Andrew Stockdale.

You can watch a sneak peek of the program below.

AC/DC’s PWR UP Australian tour begins on Wednesday, 12 November, at Melbourne’s MCG. They’ll perform for a second night on Sunday, 16 November, before playing two shows at Sydney’s Accor Stadium (Friday, 21 November, and Tuesday, 25 November).

The band will then headline the BP Adelaide Grand Final on Sunday, 30 November, two shows at Perth’s Optus Stadium (Thursday, 4 December, and Monday, 8 December), and two shows at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium (Sunday, 14 December, and Thursday, 18 December).

While it was announced months ago that Amyl And The Sniffers would be the main support for the tour, local support acts were added last week.

In Melbourne, The Casanovas will open the shows; Large Mirage in Sydney, Oscar The Wild in Adelaide, The Southern River Band in Perth, and HEADSEND in Brisbane.

A limited release of tickets has just been released ahead of the tour – head to Ticketek (all shows excluding Adelaide) and Ticketmaster (for Adelaide only) for more details.
