Austalian hard rock legends Ac/Dc have added a second show in Stockholm, Sweden due to overwhelming demand. Tickets to the band's initial date, February 20 at Globen, reportedly sold out in a record-breaking 11 minutes after they went on sale at 10:00 a.m. today (Saturday, October 11), prompting the group to announce another show at the same venue for February 22. Tickets to the second concert were released at 10:20 a.m. and reportedly were gone within 24 minutes.

A new Ac/Dc track entitled "War Machine" is available for streaming on the band's MySpace page. The song comes off the Australian hard rock legends' first studio album in eight years, "Black Ice", which will arrive on October 20 and will sold exclusively at Wal-Mart, Sam's Club and Acdc.com in the U.s. All three plan multiple promotional campaigns aimed at the group's millions of fans.

Ac/Dc's first new single in eight years, "Rock 'N Roll Train", hit the band's web site and radio stations on August 28.

Ac/Dc was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003. The band has sold more than 200 million albums worldwide, including 69 million in the U.s. alone.

"No Bull: The Director's Cut", a chronicle of the band's famed July 1996 concert at the Plaza De Toros De Las Ventas in Madrid, Spain, was released on Dvd and Blu-ray September 9.
