BBC News - AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd on New Zealand murder plot charge

The drummer of the hard rock group AC/DC, Phil Rudd, has been charged by New Zealand police with attempting to arrange a murder.

Yep, the story caught everyone's attention in NZ and OZ; more details from local media:

Be interesting to see what comes out of it all...

Latest update: the charges of attempting to hire a hitman have been withdrawn because the case was weak: Phil is still being charged with possession of methamphetamine, possession of cannabis, threatening to kill:

Well, AC/DC did post that it wouldn't affect their next album release.
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.

From their FB page.

Read into that what you will.
