Pretty much you could level that at any band who had recorded for about 45 years. AC/DC last tour set was probably 80% from albums pre 1982. Or, in other words, when I saw them in 1981, other the a few songs from the album the were promoting at the time, when I saw them again perhaps 6 years ago, they had added 2 from their output since then.

AC/DC have fooled you into thinking they have more than one song, bless 'em.

Was quite a fan of AC/DC you’ve ruined it now.

Seen that before.

Thing is, if its as easy as they allude to, why havnt they had the biggest selling album by a band ever then?

Had a phase with them as a teenager but don't listen much these days.

Plenty of good music though, Power Windows is still a great album, Subdivisions still a great track and so on

Yeah, me too. Saw them again, but honestly cant remember the tour name, but the CD was red. They were really good live, if perhaps a bit sterile. Deffo an aquired taste though.

Three red balls on a red background? Hold Your Fire. Great album. Time Stand Still is one of their best songs.

TBH, that would be Neil Young.

One thing you never see at a Rush gig?

Women.

Never clicked for me with Rush, but I was probably aware of this fact before I heard their music and that put me off them.

Thought the lead singer was female for years as I only ever caught their one famous song on the radio, it's about someone from history or literature. Not a fan tbh.
