AC/DC singer Brian Johnson will not perform his “Full-Throttle Evening of Stories and Music” at the Bijou Theatre on Feb. 7. Johnson has canceled his entire tour to undergo surgery on his wrist.

The Knoxville date was set to be the kick-off show for the tour, which was to promote his album “Rockers and Rollers: A Full-Throttle Memoir.”

Johnson, 64, has not yet said if he will reschedule the tour after he recuperates. Ticket refunds are available at locations where they were purchased.
