[QUOTE=Bon_Scottie]Jesus christ, nobody gives a ****. Shut it with the whole arguement bull. Your arguements were babbling.
My argument beat your argument, and besides I was telling him I didn't want to have the argument again dumbass.


To be fair, the whole album was devoted to Bon. If you look at the lyrics to "Have A Drink On Me", if anything their talking about Bons approach to drink.

They took a year out to come to terms with the death... and hit back in the best way possible. An album covered in black, devoted.[/QUOTE]
They did, I thought I read somewhere they started rehearsing like a month or so after the funeral which was like 2 weeks after his death. I always wondered how the whole album could be dedicated to Bon if have the album was written before he died, Like for example "Have A Drink On Me".

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Considering the success AC/DC has had, didn't you basically prove yourself wrong here? And I'm pretty sure you're a big Bee Gees fan, right?[/QUOTE]

Oh my god, are you really stupid enough to think that the only way to sell records is to appeall to the masses? in the 70's-80's, the masses wanted people who dressed up and wore makeup on stage and **** like that. AC/DC stuck to their roots and continued to sell millions of records. in the 90's, people wanted grunge. AC/DC stuck with Rock and still sold 10 or so million records. Now, people want hot girl pop singers who don't write or sing their own music. and thats about as far as you can get from AC/DC. and still, they sell millions of albums. so, actually, no, he doesn't prove himself wrong. :smash:

Does anyone know of any webs sites about AC/DC Tribute bands? that you can download the song that they re-made called "Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution" (1 of my top 5 songs!)

[QUOTE=Chris_lpp]Bon Jovi 100,000,000[/QUOTE]

Your number is BOGUS.

According to the most recent Recording Industry Association of America figures, Bon Jovi has sold 32,000,000 records.

That's LESS THAN HALF of what AC/DC has sold.

Drunken Viking 01-09-2006 06:33 PM

I guess they don't have the talent to produce popular music like AC/DC.

Music Man 01-09-2006 06:43 PM

"Back In Black" is the number two selling album of ALL-TIME, WORLDWIDE---IN ANY GENRE OF MUSIC. Only one album in the history of music has sold more copies.

It has worldwide certified sales of over 42 MILLION copies, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI).

AC/DC is also the number two selling hard rock band in history, trailing only Led Zeppelin.

AC/DC plays hard rock, not pop.

But we don't expect you to know the difference, since you weren't even able to understand the difference between Britney Spears and AC/DC.

Britney is a cute face who sings mainstream pop songs that others write for her. She doesn't write her own music or play any instruments.

AC/DC plays blistering hard rock. They write their own music and play their own instruments--in the studio and on stage.

Metallica has sold 57 million albums. Are you going to say that their music is "pop", also? :p

[QUOTE=thunderzstruck]haha truth. Because honestly I have never met a huge fan of them (knows ALOT of their music and such) that like thunderstruck as their favorite song or Brian (in most cases.) Not saying it's bad, just seems like it[/QUOTE]

I have been a ACDC fan for about 2 years now. Ooo and Thunderstruck is a good song but dont get me wrong I love all the other songs such as:

TNT
Who made who
Razors Edge
Money talks
problem child
hells bells
back in black
Shook me all night long
Are you ready
Highway to hell

etc...

Hey jackass I said they had a talent to produce popular music, not pop music. You even said they did.
[QUOTE=Music Man]"AC/DC had a TALENT for producing enormously popular hard rock music."[/QUOTE]
Popular hard rock music is just like saying popular music, it's a subcategory if you will.

Aren't "the masses" the ones buying the albums?

And I believe that by the early 90's, AC/DC was selling albums mostly due to their name.

Drunken Viking 01-16-2006 02:15 AM

Just that they had enough material for about 2 albums, and that they were gonna start to record soon, but it's been pretty low key.

Bon_Scottie 01-16-2006 04:21 AM

Its pissed me off that they havent released anything yet.

I want a new album, right now. I demand Angus gets out of his wheelchair and starts pumping those riffs.

World tour please.
