The North American stretch of the Black Ice World Tour keeps rolling on, but it's soon coming to an end, with yesterday's Mexico City show and a few more dates over the next week. After that, the band heads down to South America for a week of dates to close out the year. 2010's right around the corner though, and fan club tickets are still on sale for the March 2010 Japan dates. They're only on sale until tomorrow though, so if you haven't picked up tickets yet, time's running out!

Last week, member wertman31 made it out to the show in Houston, where he not only got to see AC/DC rock out but also experienced many Acca Dacca fans' dream:

"About 1 hour after the show a white van pulled out and stopped beside me and my wife (we were the only 2 people waiting). A man got out of the front of the band and opened the back door. First Angus exited the van and walked over to me. You could tell he was totally exhausted. He walked over and said what could I sign for you. As Angus was signing 0 dollar and writing "Money Talks" on it, I could hear another voice coming out of the van. My wife said "Its Brian". As Brian stepped out my wife was telling him how I was such a huge AC/Dc fan."

Lucky stiff! wertman31 snapped a few pics of the show and the events afterwards:


Last week, the band also found themselves in Austin for a show at the Erwin Center. Michael Corcoran of Austin360.com described their appearance as "a tribute to the awesome power of good, hard, rock n' roll." Check out the whole review here.

On the historical front, this week also marked the 7th anniversary of the date AC/DC was voted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. It took three years on the ballot, but since then, they've only continued to prove why they should've been members long before that.

That's it for another edition of "The Week in AC/DC." Keep those concert pics and reviews coming! 'Til next time!
