Non-Existent AC/DC Concert Tickets Showing up in Italian Secondary Market

altBarley Arts, the promoter of AC/DC's  upcoming tour of Italy is warning fans: The only concert in the country is set for May 19 at the Friuli stadium in Udine and there are no others scheduled in the country, despite some other venues showing up in the secondary market.

"We invite the public and the fans not to give credit to news of another phantom concert of AC / DC at the San Siro stadium in May 2, 2010," said the representative. 

 "Do not buy these tickets," called the promoter. " It is a scam perpetrated by a fraud website that sells tickets for concerts that are nonexistent. "

The organizer said he may take legal action against those spreading false rumors which could cause damage to the company, the band and the paying public of their concerts.

The new AC / DC  "Black Ice Tour" will only tkae place in Udine, at least so far, the opening of their European tour.
