NEWBERRY, S.C. — The band Thunderstruck: The AC/DC Tribute will perform at 8 p.m. Nov. 11 at Newberry Opera House, 1201 McKibben St., here.

As for the show, a promotion stated, “Thunderstruck gives fans so much more than the sound of AC/DC, they truly capture the high-voltage energy and experience.  

“For fans, it’s about a sense of familiarity, and it’s about a feeling that snatches up listeners and takes over.  

“It’s about a contagious kind of power and electricity that few AC/DC tribute bands can provide....

“From Tyler Melen’s ridiculously nonstop on-stage performance replicating the Angus Young of the ‘70s and ‘80s to Bobby Lee Stamper’s versatile vocals mimicking both Bon Scott and Brian Johnson’s ranges, to the incredible rhythm section made up of Kevin Feller on rhythm guitar, Corey Baetz on drums, and Chris Jones on bass, Thunderstruck gives a complete and consistently quality live show as true to the spirit of AC/DC that you can possibly get. 

“Thunderstruck: America’s AC/DC has performed tribute shows throughout the nation with a consistent record of sold-out shows from coast to coast.”

What’s more, news24.com noted, “AC/DC are one of the most influential rock bands in history with over 200 million albums sold worldwide and 71.5 million albums sold in the U.S. alone.   

“The double-diamond ‘Back in Black’ stands out as ‘bestselling album by any band ever’ and ‘third bestselling album by any artist’ with global sales of 50 million and counting. 

“They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003. The band also garnered their first Grammy Award in the category of ‘Best Hard Rock Performance’ for ‘War Machine’ during 2010.  

“They continue to sell out stadiums on multiple continents, sell millions of albums annually, and generate streams in the billions.”
