AC/DC fans who have bought tickets for the band’s show in London are being offered the chance to claim a refund.

Seetickets customers who bought tickets for the June 4 gig at the Olympic Stadium were today sent an email giving them the opportunity to claim a refund.

The show is part of the band’s Rock Or Bust world tour and will feature Guns N’ Roses man Axl Rose on lead vocals after Brian Johnson was ordered to stop touring or risk going deaf.

The message reads: “You have the opportunity to request a refund of your ticket. Refunds will be available from now until 5pm on Friday, May 6.”

Opinion over whether AC/DC should have brought in a replacement for Johnson or cancelled the tour has been split, with many saying Rose is the wrong choice. Other fans have defended the addition of the GNR man, who has been performing with the reunited lineup from a chair after breaking his foot.

Nobody at Seetickets was available to comment, but TeamRock readers have confirmed they have been offered refunds on tickets for the June 9 show in Manchester too, and via rival ticket agencies.
