The band performed an exclusive show in New York City at the Roseland Ballroom on 11 March 2003 as part of a contest.[1] Following the exclusive performance, AC/DC joined the Rolling Stones on their tour in Germany as an opening act. As part of the Molson Canadian Rocks for Toronto program for a benefit concert, AC/DC joined to support Rolling Stones on the lineup. The show in Toronto was the largest outdoor ticketed event in Canada, and its gross was in the 9 million range, drawing in 489,176 people.[2][3] After the benefit concert, AC/DC performed in London, England on 21 October 2003 at the Hammersmith Apollo, which sold out in four minutes.[4]
