As the fan bases of bands from the '70s and '80s get older, it means that they generally have more money to spend on crap that their idols sell them. Purveyors of Cro-Magnon rock AC/DC now join the ranks of KISS, Motörhead, Whitesnake and Warrant in releasing their new line of fine wines, according to the Australian Associated Press. Our sources tell us that the wines will all have notes of "heavy sexual innuendo, a 4/4 time signature, zero cymbals, and will all taste exactly the same."
Unfortunately for fans in the US, the AC/DC wine will only be sold in the band's native country, Australia for now. Among the varieties are AC/DC "Highway to Hell" Cabernet Sauvignon, AC/DC "Back in Black" Shiraz, AC/DC "You Shook Me All Night Long" Moscato, and AC/DC "Hells Bells" Sauvignon Blanc. Presumably AC/DC "Hand Me My Viagra, Baby" Rosé and AC/DC "My Back Hurts Can We Sit Down After This Song?" Sancerre are soon to follow.
Note to Angus Young: wine bottles hurt a lot more than plastic beer cups.
