DC/AC - The Final Stand

SHOW DESCRIPTION

It’s no exaggeration to say that a DC/AC show is one of the most dynamic AC/DC tribute shows you will see anywhere in the world, and they return to the big stage once more on Tuesday 2^nd June 2026 at the Villa Marina Royal Hall.

20+ years, and fifteen consecutive TT weeks of roof raising at the Villa Marina – DC/AC have headlined at the Royal Hall probably more times than any other band, but sadly, the school uniform, and the satchel are being hung up on the hall stand for the very last time…. This will be THE FINAL STAND of DC/AC.

DC/AC faithfully reproduce some of the greatest rock anthems ever recorded, from AC/DC, one of the most enduring rock bands ever to grace the world’s stages.

Together DC/AC create a spectacular and truly unforgettable sound and atmosphere.

Featuring the vocal acrobatics of Ade Bruce, who has a voice that can shatter glass at 1000 yards, and our very own Angus, sensational guitarist Paul (Dockers) Daugherty.

Supported on the foundations of a rhythm section which is built like a brick Thie Veg, combining rhythm guitarist Kev Cleator, bass player Richard (Dick) Raine, and new boy drummer Jonny Peacock, who has the honour of playing his first Villa show with DC/AC…. and sadly, the last….. but they have vowed to make this last show ever, the very best show ever.

You may have seen this before, but you won’t want to miss this last chance to enjoy more than two hours of classic, spectacular, high energy rock & roll, spanning the whole career of AC/DC.

And to make the show even more special, DC/AC will be joined by BALLA SABBATH – the Islands very own Black Sabbath Tribute, who will open the show with style and panache, and boy, can these guys play.

And they solemnly promise that no wildlife will be harmed during the show!! 😊
