    Poll should help you decide.

    Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

    I can not think of a new band that would make me spend $10k on a big ass toy.

    Funny, as I can't think of an old band that would make me want to lay out that kind of bread either.

    Quoted from silver_spinner:

    its because "bands" don't sell anymore. Rock has been dead a while. urban music or electronicca has been top selling music for 10 plus years now. the most popular in bars, clubs as well. drive around with your windows down in any area, even white suburbia. people under age 34 the majority listen to urban related or trap, dub step, dance. the small exception is 10 and under, disney related artists, but even that is getting urban flavor these days. yes SOME younger people may appreciate rock or country, but NOT the majority. Have to face facts. make a machine based on current pop music and they will earn huge on location. theme attracts casual or non regular pinball players. those are also the people who spend the most on location for the most part.

    Pinside rules say you get a flogging.

    Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

    we sound sort of like Muse

    I must be one of those younger hipsters you are referring to.

    Quoted from Jackontherocks:

    Not sure what other music pin would do well

    Come Christmas time Perry Como is sure to be a big hit.

    It just occurred to me there has not been a Lynyrd Skynyrd pinball machine yet. And that would qualify as older.

    Sweet Home Alabama mo fos.

    Do you think the "Baby I'm A Want You" LE will be a sell out?

    Quoted from roffels:

    Pinball is a strange hobby to be into when you're in your 30s or younger.

    It gets even stranger when you hit your mid 50s and people are begging for themes you haven't even thought about in over 30 years.

    And even stranger yet, the pinball companies then make them.
