Band say arrest will not affect plans for forthcoming album Rock Or Bust...
AC/DC have issued a statement regarding the arrest of drummer Phil Rudd on murder plot charges.
It was revealed earlier today (November 6) that 60-year-old Rudd had been charged with attempting to procure murder, as well as for making threats to kill and for possession of the drugs methamphetamine and cannabis.
The other members of the band have now released a joint statement about Rudd's arrest, and have insisted that it will not have any impact on the plans for their forthcoming album Rock Or Bust.
As Rolling Stone reports, the statement reads: "We've only become aware of Phil's arrest as the news was breaking. We have no further comment. Phil’s absence will not affect the release of our new album Rock Or Bust and upcoming tour next year." - USA today

AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd was behaving erratically long before his arrest last week, according to his bandmates.
Speaking with USA TODAY Thursday, guitarist Angus Young and bassist Cliff Williams said that Rudd — who initially faced a murder-for-hire charge, which was dropped, but still stands accused of possessing methamphetamine and marijuana — was elusive during the recording of the group's album, Rock or Bust, due Dec. 2.
While the musicians were in the studio "it was tough to get (Rudd) there in the first place," says Williams.
"It put us in a difficult situation," says Young. And he says this continued through subsequent video and photo shoots. "It put us in a spot where we couldn't move forward. Does the guy show up? Is he reliable to do his job in good shape? We've always been a solid, reliable unit."
AC/DC has indeed resolved to move forward; it's planning to tour next year. Whether Rudd will join his bandmates remains in question.
"Phil created his own situation," says Young. "It's a hard thing to say about the guy. He's a great drummer, and he's done a lot of stuff for us. But he seems to have let himself go. He's not the Phil we've known from the past."
