Power Trip Night Two: AC/DC & Judas Priest Setlists/Recap

Power Trip continued Saturday night (October 7), which saw AC/DC and Judas Priest take to the stage in Indio, Calif.

Judas Priest took to the stage first and certainly made the night memorable. Priest, of course, were tapped to fill in for Ozzy Osbourne, who backed out of the event in July.

The legendary metal band announced at Power Trip their 19th studio album will be titled Invincible Shield, and it's coming out March 8, 2024. Fans can pre-order physical copies of the LP at JudasPriestStore.Shop.MusicToday.com.

The biggest highlight of Priest's set undoubtedly came during the encore. Guitarist Glenn Tipton joined the band for the final three songs of their setlist: "Metal Gods," "Breaking the Law" and "Living After Midnight." In February 2018, it was revealed Tipton was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson’s disease ten years prior.

As if things couldn't get grander, it was time for AC/DC to take to the stage. It was the band's first show since September 20, 2016. On top of that, it was their first show with Brian Johnson since February 28, 2016. Johnson was forced to step away from AC/DC in 2016 due to issues related to hearing loss. Since then, thanks to new in-ear monitor technology, he's been able to perform live again.

AC/DC's setlist featured a wide variety of tracks from both Johnson's era and Bon Scott's era of the band. Notably, the setlist featured two songs from their 2020 album Power Up: "Shot in the Dark" and "Demon Fire."

The AC/DC catalog can be split into two parts: The Bon Scott years and the Brian Johnson years. For the sake of our latest list, we're going to focus on the Brian Johnson years.

Johnson was officially announced as the new singer for AC/DC on April 15, 1980. Back then, he faced the daunting challenge of following Scott, who had died suddenly in February 1980 just as AC/DC was enjoying international success from their latest album, Highway to Hell.

Not only did Johnson rise to the occasion, but he also helped lead AC/DC with the release of their monster hit Back In Black, which is one of the highest-selling albums of all time moving over 50 million copies worldwide and 25 million copies in the United States alone.

Over the course of the past four decades, Johnson has become one of rock's most iconic and easily recognizable voices ever. His official return to AC/DC in 2020 after a nearly four-year absence due to hearing loss issues was one of the bright spots in an unprecedentedly dark year.

In his honor, here's our ranking of the top 25 Brian Johnson AC/DC songs.

AC/DC is returning to North America with a batch of tour dates set for 2025.
