AC/DC and Walmart and the Devil

I have admired for many years the music of AC/DC. "Whole Lotta Rosie", "Jailbreak," and the entire Back in Black album are classics. But I just read that the band is releasing their new album, Black Ice, only at Walmart. Thankfully I didn't buy tickets to their concert in New Orleans, because I have boycotted Walmart for many many years. Ironically, I boycott Walmart because, I tell my students, they are the devil. AC/DC reportedly worships the devil. There you go.

Do they really worship the devil or is this more or less a marketing tool? Nothing sells tickets like going to see a few satanic dudes on stage doing incantations. Do you think Wal Mart is in league with the evil one?

AC/DC does the devil thing for marketing of course, as do many bands. Other bands do the Jesus thing to make a profit. Walmart does business to make a profit at any cost. I don't really think Walmart is Satan in the sense that they are Lucifer, but in my opinion they represent better than any other entity what is wrong with modernism.

AC/DC is not as satanic as KISS. I've long been torn between my devotion to God and my love of classic rock. To date, classic rock seems to be winning.

where did anyone ever say Ac/Dc was devil worshipers. They have a couple of kick ass songs that mention hell and people freak. They are not devil worshipers, just the greatest rock and roll band ever!!!!!!!!!
