The Guns `N Roses star has been touted as a potential replacement for singer Brian Johnson, who pulled out of AC/DC's Rock or Bust tour at risk of hearing loss. AC/DC singer feels 'kicked to the curb' The end of AC/DC?

All 10, including Atlanta," Bailey said on air, according to ultimateguitar.com. However, the band and their representatives have neither confirmed nor denied the rumours, keeping quiet on the potential replacement. Photographs have now appeared on entertainment website TMZ.com showing Rose leaving the same recording studio in Atlanta with members of the band close behind him. AC/DC announced earlier this month that they would be rescheduling the 10 remaining dates of their US tour, explaining they would forge ahead with a new singer. "AC/DC are forced to reschedule the 10 upcoming dates on the US leg of their Rock or Bust World Tour. AC/DC's lead singer, Brian Johnson, has been advised by doctors to stop touring immediately or risk total hearing loss," a statement on AC/DC's official website read. "Tomorrow's show in Atlanta through Madison Square Garden in New York, NY in early April will be made up later in the year, likely with a guest vocalist." The band haven't been afraid to replace members in the past. Angus' brother and fellow founding member, Malcolm Young, left the band in 2014 after the guitarist was diagnosed with dementia and was replaced by their nephew Stevie Young. When drummer Phil Rudd was sentenced to eight months' home detention after pleading guilty to charges of threatening to kill, and drug possession, drummer Chris Slade was drafted in to play on the tour. Johnson took over frontman duties in 1980 from singer Bon Scott, who died suddenly in London after a heavy night of drinking. At this point, lead guitarist and founding member Angus Young is the last AC/DC original member. AAP is seeking confirmation from AC/DC's Australian representatives.
