Australian hard rockers AC/DC are coming to Winnipeg.

The band has announced a Winnipeg date for their Rock or Bust World Tour — Sept. 17 at Investors Group Field.

First formed in 1973 by brothers Malcolm and Angus Young, AC/DC is one of the best-selling bands of all time, with a total of more than 200 million albums sold worldwide.

They'll be without Malcolm, who has taken a leave to deal with illness, and drummer Phil Rudd, who was charged in November in an alleged murder-for-hire plot as well as possession of drugs.

Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m.
