Former AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd will have to wait an additional two weeks before being sentenced for threatening to kill and possession of drugs.
He pled guilty to the charges in April after previously insisting his innocence, following a raid on his home in November.
He was to be sentenced on June 26 in Tauranga District Court, New Zealand, but the case has been delayed until July 9. He could face up to seven years in jail.
Rudd, 60, was replaced in the band by returning sticksman Chris Slade. He later reported that none of his former colleagues had spoken to him since his arrest, saying: “I wrote them a letter, I tried to get in contact with Angus. I’ve had no contact with anybody.”
But he added: “There’ll be another tour and I’ll be on it. It’ll go until we all die.”
