Young undergoing medical tests but ‘in good spirits’ and expected to perform, says events promoter

AC/DC guitarist Stevie Young has been hospitalised in Buenos Aires after feeling unwell, just days before the band’s scheduled sold-out concerts in the city.

According to the event’s promoter, the guitarist for the legendary Australian rock band was undergoing medical tests but remains in good spirits and was expected to perform.

The band are scheduled to perform in the Argentinian capital as part of their Power Up world tour.

Young, the nephew of the band’s late founder Malcolm Young, “was not feeling well. As a precaution, he was admitted to a local hospital, where he is undergoing a full series of tests,” according to a statement released Thursday by the event’s promoter.
