AC/DC still has it
I was in this bar the other night when I decided to play AC/DC's It's a Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock and Roll). Not only is it one of the early songs to effectively use parenthesis in the title, but the power of this music bridges the musical generations. I had heard all the Rob Zombie I could take and had to get something else on. As soon as the tune hit the speakers, these two college chicks started to dance on the bar and everyone started working their best Bon Scott. I analyzed the possibilites as follows. 1)They just saw "Coyote Ugly" on TBS superstation for the fifth time this week. 2)Their names were Lexus and/or Mercedes and/or Infinity and they were professional, "entertainers." 3)AC/DC just rocks. The tune is coming up on 30 years old. I guess it has legs.
