Spinner.com reports that Australian hard rock icons
AC/DC are getting closer to ending an eight-year drought of new music. "God, I'm ready," bassist
Cliff Williams, who was in L.A. to participate at the
Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp, tells
Spinner.com. To that end, the group will hit the studio March 1.
Almost
as long as the wait for new music is the band's absence from the stage.
Tour plans, however, aren't as firm. "If we go out again or when we go
out again,"
Williams said. "You just never know. We've been
around a long time, so we're going to get together and get in the
studio and I fully expect we will [tour.]. I don't mean to be so
negative about that. [When] the last tour ended in early '01, you'd see
kids on their dads' shoulders. And these kids were like 10, 12 years
old. It will be tremendous to see that again. And it's very cool —
younger kids getting into older music."
