It was a wild week for AC/DC, and the band didn't even play a note!

On Monday, AC/DC promised a major announcement, and they didn't disappoint, with the release of the new box set Backtracks. The Deluxe box set features three fully-loaded AC/DC CDs, two DVDs and an LP, and as Angus demonstrates, it's all loaded into a fully-functional guitar amplifier.

Check out all the details of the Deluxe Backtracks box set here.

If it's just the music you're looking for, there's also the Backtracks 3-disc set, featuring two CDs of AC/DC rarities from the studio and the stage as well as the Family Jewels: Disc Three DVD. Along with the Backtracks 3-disc set, the AC/DC Store is offering two Backtracks t-shirts, including one exclusively for members of ACDC.com. Be sure to login on ACDC.com to take advantage of the member discount.

Check out the goods, available now for pre-order in the AC/DC Store.

The other headline news of the week was the postponement of six upcoming dates on the Black Ice World Tour (read all about it here). It was an "inside job" that derailed these shows, as Brian explained to ACDC.com here, and we'll keep you posted with more info on the postponed shows soon.

Member ajsmith posted the pics of the week in the ACDC.com Forums, as he checked in with his shots of AC/DC live on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. That's a hell of a trip! Keep on sending those pictures, and we'll keep on featuring the best of the bunch in this space each week.
