AC/DC is set to perform three concerts at the River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires on March 23, 27, and 31, as part of their Power Up Tour. Following their performances in Argentina, the band is scheduled to take the stage in Mexico City at the Estadio GNP Seguros on April 7, 11, and 15.

The details surrounding Young's hospitalization, including the cause of his illness and any potential diagnoses, have yet to be released. The lack of information raises concerns among fans and industry observers about the potential impact on upcoming performances. Given AC/DC's stature in the global music scene, any change in their tour schedule would be closely monitored, as it could have wide-ranging implications for fans and the music industry at large, particularly in Mexico where their shows are highly anticipated.
