The world-premiere listening event for AC/DC's new album, "Rock Or Bust", will be held on Tuesday, November 18 from 7 to 9 p.m. EST at Webster Hall (125 E 11th St.) in New York City. Diehard AC/DC fans will converge on Webster Hall to get an exclusive preview of the band's new CD. Celebrities, tastemakers and fans will be treated to special cocktails, rare prizes and commemorative merchandise while rocking out to the group's new album two weeks before its release. AC/DC earlier in the week unveiled the full music video for "Play Ball", the first single from "Rock Or Bust". The clip marks the first official time that guitarist Stevie Young has appeared in a video with the group, and is also notable for the absence of drummer Phil Rudd, who is replaced in the clip by Bob Richards. Founding guitarist Malcolm Young stepped down from the group earlier this year after it was revealed he was suffering from dementia. Stevie, the nephew of Malcolm and guitarist Angus Young, played on "Rock Or Bust" and will be in the touring lineup.Rudd has been under fire since last week when it was initially reported that he was arrested in an alleged murder-for-hire plot. Those charges were eventually dropped, but he's still facing charges of "threatening to kill" as well as possession of meth and marijuana. He could end up sentenced to seven years in jail.AC/DC has already stated that the drummer's troubles will not affect next year's world tour or the December 2 release of "Rock Or Bust".
