HIGH VOLTAGE ROCK’N’ROLL

The concerts of live/wire at the end of the year have become a beloved tradition at the Z7. This year, the best AC/DC tribute band in Europe will appear in the Pratteler rock temple on two evenings. Accompanied by hellish bells, bagpipes, and cannon thunder, the five seasoned rockers will celebrate the hits and rarities of the Australian rock legend on December 20 and 21. True to the motto: Let There Be Rock!

For almost 50 years, the name AC/DC has stood for hard rock of the highest class. Over 200 million records sold and sold-out stadium tours around the globe make the Australians one of the most successful rock bands of all time. Over 20 years ago, the tribute combo live/wire was formed from the merger of two cover bands, Riff Raff and Jailbreak, from the Basel region. Since then, the musicians have been reproducing the sound of the super band from Down Under almost perfectly, delivering a fantastic stage show with everything that goes along with it. The musicians truly breathe the spirit of their great idols on stage. And the gritty Brian Johnson voice of singer Däny is probably closer to the original than any other. His expressions and cap also remind one of the sympathetic AC/DC frontman. Guitarist Cello plays the riffs on his Gibson SG exactly like Angus and whirls across the stage in a school uniform, just like him. Adi rocks with his Gretsch guitar in the best Malcolm manner, sharp-edged and powerful. Ronny orientates himself towards the straightforward and unadorned playing style of drummer Phil Rudd, while Beat lays down a phenomenal bass foundation in the style of Cliff Williams with his four strings. Since the first gig in the fall of 2002, their stage presence has been refined in countless celebrated shows. The repertoire now includes far more than 50 songs from four and a half decades of AC/DC. Thus, live/wire are perfectly capable of delivering a two-hour AC/DC tribute show with authentic sound and electrifying stage presence that is worth seeing and hearing. For over two full decades, the five friends have been celebrating the sound of their heroes together and can never get enough of it. Get on the Rock’n’Roll Train to Pratteln or blast down the Highway to Hell to the Z7 to celebrate the AC/DC party of the year with live/wire.
