| Re: Ahem If you had taken a vote 6 years ago between ACDC and that fat fecking purple dinosaur, ACDC would have lost. But ACDC is still strong, and they'll still be strong after the Freekin Wiggles (whatever they do) are a distant bad memory.
Remember in the mid-70's and that faggot Disco Rocks craze?? You count how many people listen to that now compared to how many listen to ACDC, Pink Floyd, Zep, Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult (there's a concert duo I would have liked to have seen) etc. There ain't no comparison. I say again:
ACDC............  |

| Re: Ahem Saw a program about AC/DC a couple weeks ago. They said Back in Black was the 5th (or was it 7th  ) best selling album of all time. I knew they were big, but didn't know they were THAT big.  |

Apparently they were 4 mates doing a Psychology degree who did some thesis that showed kids respond to bright colours and other crap. So they applied their research and made a kids entertainment group and seem to be making a killing.
They fill out more stadiums than ACDC ever did, but slightly different crowd. |
