AC/DC Fans Call For Band To Return To Controversial Gig City

A rally organised by AC/DC fans has called for the band to make a return to the Illinois city of Peoria.

The Australian band have not returned to Peoria since they controversially fired cannons during their last show at the city's Carver Arena.

However, on Saturday (January 10th) fans asked for the veteran group to add the city to the US leg of their Black Ice world tour.

"We're going to prove to AC/DC that we're out of our minds," Matt Bahan, a host on local Peoria radio station WIXO-FM, told the Journal Star.

"We want them here, and I think it's due time that they come back."

Bahan also dismissed rumours that AC/DC had been banned following their last show in the city as an urban myth.

As well as fans dressed as the band's members, the rally also saw an appearance from the city's mayor.
