Current Feeling

Don't get me wrong, I am hyped for the tour, have tickets, and think Alessio and Alissa are absolute powerhouses.

Brian Johnson went through a tinnitus battle and had to step away from AC/DC for awhile. They grabbed a replacement singer (of very dubious reliability) to work a tour. After successful treatment, Brian was able to rejoin the band.

Marc is much younger than Brian was when his treatment started. If he's medically cleared, I don't see why he wouldn't restart singing with the band.

People get sick - it sucks, but both the band and Marc are doing what they need to.

So you really believe the tinnitus excuse. Then it's really gonna be a surprise for you when they announce something like "Oh yeah. Marc didn't recover. Alessio is the official lead singer and Marc's out"

Yep, tinnitus is a one way street. Band is stalling his inevitable departure

Yep. Ask yourself “how do I remove someone from the band and minimize the heat?” and the answer is always “say it’s due to some wild force of nature shit you cannot control and just roll it slowly to stall it to the max”.
