Quoted from TigerLaw:The theme is going to be a tough sale
They bought AC/DC and Metallica, didn't they?
Quoted from Animal:AC/DC and Metallica are still making and selling music, so many would not call them an "oldies band."
Interesting how those machines didn't include the "new" songs.
Even Noone is still performing and making music.

After listening to a lot of the great "modern" bands that played at Coachella this weekend including a shredding set by Jack White Saturday night, it makes me curious why so many would want another new machine based on a band that was in their prime in the mid 70s instead of something new and fresh.
I like pinball machines that represent a time and place. In twenty years will we want to look back and say "Oh yeah, 2015 was the year of Kiss" ? It works for GnR because twenty years ago they were happening. When I first saw a GnR machine, I thought how cool is that? Not getting that same feeling with the last several band pins.
Quoted from vid1900:"Today's" top artists are not exactly what 50 year old pin buyers are likely to be interested in:
Those aren't necessarily what I was referring to. It seems to me pinballers have not always been about being "mainstream". Or maybe that's just me...
Quoted from vid1900:About the most boring and mainstream pile you could ever have....
Good point. I guess I'll just keep on playing my old machines and listening to my modern music while others rock out to Detroit Rock City one more time..
Quoted from DarthXaos:How about a Bad Religion pinball machine. They're old but still relevant
They rocked the house at Coachella as well this weekend. How bout Coachella the pinball experience? Even old farts like AC/DC were there. Must have been a helluva weekend!
Quoted from vid1900:give us a "new" band that would sell some pins today.......
Not exactly new, but I think they might be able sell some.
Quoted from Aurich:If it was designed by people who at all got the show it could be brilliant.
And for those that don't get it...
