Live/Wire, an AC/DC tribute act, played to an Old Woollen venue which was packed with diehard rock fans.

The six-piece act, who have over 20 years of touring experience, attracted a large crowd to the 500-capacity Farsley venue on Saturday, 16 May. 

The Old Woollen, which sits in Sunny Bank Mills, has hosted Live/Wire annually for the past three years, with each show seeing impressive turnouts, particularly their 2024 show, which sold out. 

The two-hour set covers all the hits from AC/DC’s over 50-year career, with Podge Blacksmith as lead vocalist, replicating legendary frontman Brian Johnson. 

Here’s a slideshow of images of the gig by photographer John McEvoy:

Live/Wire are set to continue their tour until late August, with the next Yorkshire-based show coming in Barnsley on 12 June.
