Austrian Independent reports: A concert by Australian rock legends AC/DC at an Austrian airport could be cancelled because of unexploded WWII bombs.

State broadcaster ORF reported yesterday (Wednesday, March 17),that the concert venue — the airport in Wels, Upper Austria — had been the target of heavy bombing by the Allies during the war.

It added that Helmut Track, the city official responsible for protection from catastrophes, had informed the city government last month of the danger the bombs would pose to the thousands of people who would attend the concert on May 22.
