I had a strange late-in-life fascination with AC/DC about a year ago. I'd bought the Back in Black album (CD) ages before and never really thought much about it (other than enjoying it), then one day I came across the info on the net that it was the second best selling album of all time (after Thriller). Astonishing for such a "fringe" genre.
And I got to thinking: I don't even know these guys' names. They're not individually famous. So I did some googling and enjoyed reading all about them.
I think they "got it right": the benefits of money and fame in a collective sense, without the corrosive affect of individual fame.

Something to think about.
