		</div><p>AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd has denied breaching the rules of his home detention sentence by drinking alcohol.</p>
<p>A New Zealand judge has allowed Rudd to remain in home confinement on bail pending a November hearing.</p>
<p>The 61-year-old Australian-born rocker could face further sanctions, including jail time. Drinking alcohol, however, would probably be considered at the lower end of potential breaches.</p>
<p>Rudd was sentenced to eight months of home confinement on July 9 after pleading guilty to threatening to kill a former employee and possessing methamphetamine and marijuana.</p>
<p>He acknowledged in a court summary of facts that he offered cash, vehicles and a house to an associate after asking him to have the victim “taken out”. He also acknowledged that he said directly to the victim he was going to kill him.</p>
<p>Police arrested Rudd at his home on July 18, accusing him of possessing and drinking alcohol. He was subsequently given a new bail condition – that he undergo drug and alcohol testing whenever police request it.</p>
<p>It is unclear whether Rudd has any future with AC/DC, who are currently touring with Welsh drummer Chris Slade.</p>
<p>Rudd’s lawyer Craig Tuck said he was appealing against Rudd’s convictions and sentence.</p>
<p>Asked by reporters after the hearing if he was nervous about what lay ahead in the case, Rudd replied: &#8220;No, the only thing I&#8217;m nervous about is I don&#8217;t, I don&#8217;t actually don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s going on.&#8221;</p>
<p>Asked how he would be spending time on bail, he responded with a lopsided grin: “Self-improvement,” before his lawyer hustled him into a waiting car.</p>
<p>Rudd’s erratic behavior outside court has become a feature of his recent appearances. At one hearing he clowned around by jumping on the back of a security guard and at another he raised his middle fingers to journalists.</p>
<p>He typically does not wear dentures, sometimes making his soft-spoken answers difficult to understand.</p>
