AC/DC releases new ‘Play Ball’ video – minus Phil Rudd

AC/DC have released their new video 'Play Ball' with troubled member Phil Rudd noticeably absent. 

You'll be treated to lots of of sweaty, bikini-clad female athletes, close-ups of soccer balls bouncing off women's asses and a hottie stretched out on a pool table. Not to mention soccer-playing nuns and elephants putting soccer balls in basketball hoops.

Rudd was unable to attend due to 'family issues' which turned out to be murder allegations which have since been dropped. He will still faces charges of meth posession and threatening to kill and will be in court on November 27.  The band has issued a statement saying, "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."

The drummer feature on this video is Bob Richards, who had previously played with Colorado band Shogun and Iron Maiden's Adrian Smith.
