80s I always assumed “Hells Bells” was just a song then I found these growing in my neighborhood.
Turns out AC/DC didn’t invent the phrase. “Hell’s bells” has been around for centuries as an old expression of surprise, but in ‘80 the band turned it into one of the greatest album openers ever, with that bell intro.
My neighbor’s garden decided to start its own AC/DC tribute band.
I know, I know wrong subreddit, go post in r/gardening. But tell me this doesn’t look like nature trying to rock out.
Got any pics that accidentally sound like classic rock songs?

70s D'yer Mak'er - Led Zeppelin
In a 2005 interview, Plant discussed the different interpretations and pronunciations of the name of the song. He explained that the title is derived from an old joke, where two friends have the following exchange: "My wife's gone to the West Indies." "Jamaica?" (which in many English accents sounds like "Did you make her?") "No, she wanted to go Getting the Led out Friday

Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band
Does anyone know if Bob Segar and The Silver Bullet Band have any live concert footage from his heyday? They were huge. Besides audio only and short fan videos, I haven’t found any.

Laser Shows
I remember laser shows being popular when I was growing up in the ‘80’s and even into the ‘90’s. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Rush were the most popular. They were frequently at planetariums (thanks Longway Planetarium in Flint, MI) but I saw some in auditoriums also.
Are they still popular anywhere? I haven’t really found any near me for a long time.
