AC/DC guitarist Stevie Young has been hospitalized in Buenos Aires ahead of the band's concerts scheduled for March 23, March 27, and March 31.

A spokesperson released a statement to Reuters stating that out of an abundance of caution, Stevie was admitted to a local hospital where he is undergoing a full battery of tests.

Despite this development, AC/DC remains committed to its South American leg tour dates.

However, the exact reason for Stevie's hospitalization has not been disclosed, fueling speculation among fans and critics alike.

AC/DC continues to power through their tour schedule with guitarist Stevie Young's condition currently under evaluation.
