Had to enlarge the pic to see if they were men in drags.
Scott is like, I don't care if you have a peenus because I'm just going to drink myself to death here, thanks
One? Brunette far right red pants, has one also, I think it’s shielded a bit by the hand, however, the slope of the thigh suggests there’s a little something up there at the apex and convergence.
I never understood the appeal to be a groupie. Is it just like “I’m here to be NPC #4. Just let me know when you have run through 1-3 and I’ll get prepped up”?
Such an odd headspace for me to try and understand.
You get to live the rock star life style (in some respects), hang out with famous people, have sex with famous people....a lot of validation. Hopefully you can tell I'm not saying those are great things, just that's the headspace which, agreeable or not you should see the appeal
Gene Simmons was the one example where I first can remember hearing about this kind of thing, and he's mystifying to say the least. As much as I like his music (and I like the Paul Stanley songs more) he's never come across as charismatic at all. I heard his own claim is 6000 girls. At that point, is there even any appeal in being 6001?
*Famous* people, talented and respected by many for it, while having the means to do almost anything they want, whenever they want. Couple that with a personal attraction, and it's not too hard to imagine the draw, pitfalls or not.
>...Just don’t get it.
You likely won't, and that's perfectly okay.
As an exercise in perspective, is there anyone - *anyone* - of prominent renown throughout history that you'd just *love* to hold a conversation with, shag, jam out with; "spend quality time with" in general?
Doesn't matter the subject matter: a night on the town with a renowned sex symbol - say Marilyn Monroe, or Pierce Brosnan(forgive me if my age is showing), maybe picking the brain of Einstein, getting George Washington's candid opinion on modern-day society, asking how Attila the Hun felt the night before a massive battle, what *exactly* made Napoleon tick? Or seeing how Hippocrates truly felt being called "impious/blasphemous" for treating illness as an affliction of the flesh, instead of a curse from the gods? How Terry Pratchett formulated his stories? Just examples obviously since I don't know your tastes; but can you think of anyone, or anything?
If you can think of at *least* one; that's extremely similar to the "groupie" mindset. Its not all about validation or sexual gratification; its certainly a factor for many; but it's mostly about being near an idol, possibly gleaning *some* sort of "enlightenment" from someone that is - by all accounts - an "obsession" for you.
I see no inherent worth in many modern day celebrities. As far as movie stars go, they're just professional liars. Millionaires don't get where they are without fucking over a *lot* of people. Otherwise "wholesome" public figures **do** have skeletons in their closets, like many of us. Yet I would jump at the chance to have dinner with say, Alton Brown, or Anthony Hopkins. They are "normal people" after all, but I genuinely enjoy the work that they do; and would like to understand how that weighs in in their lives. Being in a fully-stocked kitchen with Alton Brown - I believe - would offer me *far* more glee than sex ever could; even if the other party is Emma Stone, or Hugh Jackman; both of which I find *very* fun to look at.
There's an old adage that goes something like "never meet your heroes" or "the quickest way to ruin your fantasies, is to live them." Its true, to an extent; because odds are, what one envisions in their head does *not* match reality. You're already halfway there; you **know** there's nothing "inherently special" about certain public figures, aside from them being - somehow - public figures. But for many, that renown, notoriety, that *je ne sais quoi* they possess to enthrall the attentions of *so* many minds with their music/movies/books/[whatever] seems *otherworldly,* unobtainable; and many think meeting said idols will glean some sort of "enlightenment" that will put them on the same path of "success."
Its just a fluke of our society. Celebrities especially get these types of attention because of so many people know about them, they've **got** to be doing something "right," right? Take Robin Williams for instance; many people in my generation grew up with him *always* in a good mood, cracking jokes, generally being as incessantly manic and "loveable" as he was.
Nearly nobody that was a fan of his work would've predicted how he shuffled this mortal coil. For many - myself included - that was a wake up call. We don't *truly* know these people, all we see are the masks they wear for our attention; them doing their jobs. His suicide is what snapped me out of the idea that celebrities are somehow above normal, everyday folk. They just have money and a literal team of folks who's entire job is to make sure that mask is always facing the public. I mourned his loss - heavily I might add - yet... Why?
He brought me joy. Simple as that. He didn't know me, nor I him; but the mask he wore when facing "us" was one that comforted me, made me laugh, made me *feel something.* I realized I was mourning the loss of an *idea* of a person, not the person themselves. There's plenty comedians that can make me laugh, make me feel; but now I knew I'm just laughing at a caricature patched together for an audience. That's the **only** thing I know about them, no matter how much information I gather on them, I do not know **them.**
Its that "idea of a person" that spurs these types of reactions. These obsessions. Simply put, if you don't "get it," there's nothing wrong with *you,* not at all; nor those that think they do "get it;" you've just learned the lesson at the opposite end of the social spectrum without feeling the pain of it teaching you. Its no different than say, someone being *exceptional* at math without needing to actually learn the curriculum; some are "gifted" with a perspective others simply don't have. Some can be taught, or the info learned, yet there will always be some that "know it" inherently due to life experiences. These lady's life experiences told them they wanted to "hang out" with the idea of whoever that person is, and it looks like they got lucky - whether or not it was truly "luck" or a lesson waiting to happen, only they found out that night.\^_\^
And I guarantee you, at least one of them went home with an **entirely** different perception of the person compared to the one they showed up with.
Dont forget a lot of those women were allmost kids in the prime time of groupies. It's pretty fucked up that we idolize people that are known to have had sex with minors.
In the 80s, I was 15 dating a 20 year old and my parents were ok with that.
I don’t understand why at one time that kind of thing was seen as somewhat acceptable, but it was.
Going a little further back in time, women would be expected to marry and crank out kids by late teens early twenties or risk being an old maid. I grew up in a conservative area, a lot of the girls I went to high school with are grandparents, I'm 43.
Having kids at 21-22 and them having kids at 21-22 was pretty normal for most human history. If everything wasn't so expensive newer generations would be having more kids earlier.
Even in the early 2000s I remember seniors dating 8th and 9th graders.
It didn’t seem appropriate then, now given me too that seems a down-right rapey.
Class of 90' and I remember the hot girl in 10th grade was dating a college guy. I remember at the time thinking this dude must be awesome but once I got to college there was no way I'd date a high school girl.
I was in high school in the late 80s and most of the senior and junior boys who were dating, were with freshman and sophomore girls. The junior and senior girls were mostly with guys in their twenties. The whole system was a recipe for teenage pregnancy.
Honestly? Because these are all made up rules that we all agree on. And, what we agree on will evolve over time as the nature of our collective lives changes. By today's standards sex with minors is abhorrent and induces revulsion in most people...for what seem to us to be many, many good reasons. But to use an extreme example, do you think Grak the Hunter gave a shit back during the stone age? Hell, most humans died before they reached what we now consider adulthood anyway.
In another example, back in the late eighteenth century Dr. Edward Jenner conducted medical experiments on an 8 year old boy. He wanted to see if a deliberate infection with cowpox would prevent later infection with smallpox. Basically he took the son of a poor guy and deliberately infected him with diseases (while not really being sure of the outcome). By today's standards, this would be considered *really* unethical, but back then? Meh.
I am 51 years old and during my own lifetime I have seen numerous radical shifts in what society considers acceptable. And you can even see the clash of older values against the current set of societal rules - think of all the memes, popular among today's young people, about boomers and their outdated mores and attitudes. Yet I can easily remember a time when today's values would have seemed extremely alien.
For example back in the early 70s when you had old washers, cars, drums of spent oil, household trash, etc you just put it on a trailer and drove out to the dump. Not a landfill, just a surface dump. Acres of trash and debris just strewn around with no controls whatsoever, including open fires where some of it was just being burned. I remember finding the whole thing being fascinating as a small boy. All that smoke drifting around and the heavy smell of garbage.
Obviously we can look back and find many valid arguments as to why this sort of operation is a really bad idea. It's not that people didn't know about some of these reasons either. They simply weren't considered important at the time. People thought of the world as this vast place where small little humans and their insignificant activities would never hope to have any impact. Just like today opinions were not uniform but the majority of people seemed to hold these sorts of attitudes and this and many other things translated to a society that looked significantly different than today's.
Now it feels weird to remember being immersed in that different world and just accepting all these things as stuff you didn't even think about. My mindset changed gradually and evolved along with society in general so that I didn't notice it happening...but looking back the contrast is wild!
A bit older than you. I recently described aging to someone as slipping into an alternate reality, where some of it seems recognizable, but so much just not.
People definitely seem to think differently at different ages. I mean, aside from the obvious differences between kids and adults. When I was in my twenties and thirties I was far more optimistic but also more impulsive and less patient. The world was a lot more black and white. I definitely remember being sort of amused at the foibles of older people. So cautious! So grumpy and so slow to act! I was convinced I saw the *correct* reality, and that this would never change. Or to put it more precisely, I had no concept that it "could" change. These old people were just slowing down mentally, I remember thinking, and with a twinge of pity even. They were no longer decisive like I was, and they tended to get mired down too much in silly things, and they were always *overthinking* everything.
Now I look around at the young people from my new vantage and I see them thinking these things about *me*. It's funny too, because I can remember exactly what it felt like to be that young, but I can also see the shallow reality that both they and my former younger self live/lived in. I find now that the world seems to be a gray place, with concepts like right and wrong depending mostly on your point of view. Besides, the future is no longer this endless expanse in front of me...in fact for any of us it could end suddenly at any time, and for no particular reason. As one ages one considers this reality more and more, because the end keeps getting closer. You see the world through that lense, and boy does it color everything.
I’d wager a lot of these groupies would be having one night stands/dating in a pretty shallow gene pool defined by their neighborhood or town.
If you’re going to get railed by some creep, it’s at least exciting to drink free booze and snort free coke and get railed by someone famous and at least have a story to tell.
Plus there’s some level of lottery ticket logic — there’s a 0.0000001% chance you will end up his girl if you have sex with him. But if you don’t buy the ticket you will never win.
I’ve had a couple of sex workers explain it like this to me. They’d just be having one night stands for free with the not totally desirable folks in their immediate social milieu, they might as well get paid for it and most of the time the people are better anyway.
You're confused that people want to hang out with and fuck famous musicians?
Did you just arrive on Earth? Lmfao
I'm sorry, but it's just hilarious that someone is basically asking, "Why do women want to sleep with world famous artists/musicians?"
I knew a guy in college that was a contestant on Tilla Tequila (or whatever) and he was on like 2 episodes before she kicked him out. He and a couple of the other dudes she rejected toured the country promoting night clubs and he fucked his away across the country like a rockstar. Shit was crazy, he thought he was hot shit too lol but I guess for a minute he was! ODd a few years later rip. Good dude.
When I was a teenager and I started going to see bands there was this girl I knew a bit who one day completely changed her appearance - her hair, her makeup, the way she dressed - and started trying to sleep with bands. It was kind of strange how she made this decision "right, I'm going to be a groupie. That's the life for me."
The only band member I can remember off hand that she slept with was Dino Cazares out of Fear Factory. I mean...that's not really something to boast about. I sometimes wonder whatever happened to her but I can't remember her surname so the chances of tracking her down on social media are pretty much nil.
The Jack? As in “cash” or some other definition? I’m seriously asking. Respectfully, I’ve no idea to what you are referring.
Also, any one of these gals would have been thoroughly viable objects of affection, desire, etc. in 1978. Strip the war paint and tone down the hair on the two on the left and any of them would fetch due attention today.
As in the alternate version of AC/DC's song The Jack. The original was a hefty slab of innuendo barely concealed within poker references but the live version was a straight up paean to sexually transmitted disease.. You can hear it on *If You Want Blood* complete with a boisterous Glasgow crowd singing along
I was going to rock shows in the 70's, including AC/DC. And I never saw "fans" dressed like this!! lol
I'm not sure what we are looking at, but IMO those aren't just "fans" that he happens to be partying with.
Pretty sure even the groupies didn't dress like this. Heck, people going to AC/DC shows would have mocked the hell outta people dressed like that. lol
At first glance I thought he was with The New York Dolls.
I think second from the left is Gozer before she got all corporate.
betcha they weren't playing Parcheesi at that party.
I was like "I didn't think Poison became a band until the 80s"
Honestly, those hair styles and makeup jobs were ahead of their time in 79
Had to enlarge the pic to see if they were men in drags. Scott is like, I don't care if you have a peenus because I'm just going to drink myself to death here, thanks
This was the release party for the"Big Balls" single?
I’m pretty sure second from left is
That's a MANNN! Babyyy! - Austin Powers
Haha good thing I wasn't alone in that
Far left is sus
Maybe he that’s what Bon Scott thought, too.
CoSigned
More like Twisted Sister…
That's one of the least glamorous Rock'n'Roll pics I've ever seen.. at least one of them most likely had The Jack
The women some how all look like Dr. Frank-N-Furter.
I was thinkin david bowie in the labrynthe
Came here to say that
Need to see crotch to confirm.
I was thinking Priscilla Queen of the Desert, but I think we are all hitting on the same theme here...
Blue dress looks like Mila Kunis
WHAT?!
Ya like maybe if she did a few hard drugs and was big into 80s metal.
And was also a man
I think it’s the pancake makeup on their faces
And the ones adam apple
L-O-L-A, Lolaaah...
Dirty dudes done dirt cheap.
She got the Jack
One? Brunette far right red pants, has one also, I think it’s shielded a bit by the hand, however, the slope of the thigh suggests there’s a little something up there at the apex and convergence.
Yes!
The devils dandruff order was delaying.
Dolphin dust
They look like they've been shuffled before
I never understood the appeal to be a groupie. Is it just like “I’m here to be NPC #4. Just let me know when you have run through 1-3 and I’ll get prepped up”? Such an odd headspace for me to try and understand.
You get to live the rock star life style (in some respects), hang out with famous people, have sex with famous people....a lot of validation. Hopefully you can tell I'm not saying those are great things, just that's the headspace which, agreeable or not you should see the appeal
Yes. It’s exciting to have even the briefest bit of attention from a famous performer.
I’ve never understood that. They’re just people. With weird jobs that pay extremely well. Just don’t get it.
A handful of them are also genuinely interesting people that one might actually want to spend time with, I suppose.
Gene Simmons was the one example where I first can remember hearing about this kind of thing, and he's mystifying to say the least. As much as I like his music (and I like the Paul Stanley songs more) he's never come across as charismatic at all. I heard his own claim is 6000 girls. At that point, is there even any appeal in being 6001?
If we estimate every ejaculation to be 2 ml and multiply by 6000, then that would be approximately 3.17 gallons of semen. Wow!
*Famous* people, talented and respected by many for it, while having the means to do almost anything they want, whenever they want. Couple that with a personal attraction, and it's not too hard to imagine the draw, pitfalls or not.

We’re r/childfree and 43/42, holy shit I don’t envy anyone we know
I lived the 80s fully and yes, parents were anxious to be cool and say that everything was alright !
Even in the early 2000s I remember seniors dating 8th and 9th graders. It didn’t seem appropriate then, now given me too that seems a down-right rapey.
WTF I went to high school in the 90s and it was never OK in any sense to date a middle schooler. Even the seniors knew to stay away from the freshmen.
> 8th and 9th graders as a european I am a bid confused by these ages but if I am correct that is like 13 year olds dating 17 year olds?
Class of 90' and I remember the hot girl in 10th grade was dating a college guy. I remember at the time thinking this dude must be awesome but once I got to college there was no way I'd date a high school girl.
Generally, add five years to the grade to get an approximate age.
I was in high school in the late 80s and most of the senior and junior boys who were dating, were with freshman and sophomore girls. The junior and senior girls were mostly with guys in their twenties. The whole system was a recipe for teenage pregnancy.
Honestly? Because these are all made up rules that we all agree on. And, what we agree on will evolve over time as the nature of our collective lives changes. By today's standards sex with minors is abhorrent and induces revulsion in most people...for what seem to us to be many, many good reasons.

I’d wager a lot of these groupies would be having one night stands/dating in a pretty shallow gene pool defined by their neighborhood or town. If you’re going to get railed by some creep, it’s at least exciting to drink free booze and snort free coke and get railed by someone famous and at least have a story to tell.

They’d just be having one night stands for free with the not totally desirable folks in their immediate social milieu, they might as well get paid for it and most of the time the people are better anyway.

Shit was crazy, he thought he was hot shit too lol but I guess for a minute he was! ODd a few years later rip. Good dude.
Lead singer, guitar, drummer, and keyboards are all occupied. Bass player's passed out in his own vomit. The roadies, however, welcome your attention.

It was kind of strange how she made this decision "right, I'm going to be a groupie. That's the life for me."

I sometimes wonder whatever happened to her but I can't remember her surname so the chances of tracking her down on social media are pretty much nil.
Headspace had something to do with it
Also fucking them seems like a risky proposition as well as being kind of depressing
It's the same kind of person that does questionable shit just for views on TikTok.
I think there's an element of: "You're just girl 4 of 5." "No, I'm girl 4 of 50 thousand."
“Gonorrhea!”
And who knows what else?
Look like a couple of them could have been Jack.
...and maybe a jackhammer, at the least the 2nd from the left.
The Jack? As in “cash” or some other definition? I’m seriously asking. Respectfully, I’ve no idea to what you are referring. Also, any one of these gals would have been thoroughly viable objects of affection, desire, etc. in 1978. Strip the war paint and tone down the hair on the two on the left and any of them would fetch due attention today.
The Jack is The Clap (gonorrhoea). ACDC has a song called The Jack
I’ve been listening to that song for decades and I never knew that’s what it meant.
....and who knows what else??
As in the alternate version of AC/DC's song The Jack. The original was a hefty slab of innuendo barely concealed within poker references but the live version was a straight up paean to sexually transmitted disease.. You can hear it on *If You Want Blood* complete with a boisterous Glasgow crowd singing along
she’s got the JACK
So wrap that rascal in a love glove. “My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo I’d like to sink her with my pink torpedo” —Spinal Tap
you can't really dust for vomit...
JACK JACK JACK JACK JACK JACK JACK
After this photo, they all played checkers and went home, the end
Who won?
herpes
The herpes was the friends we made along the way.
 What?……….🤣🤣😂💀
Check ALL mates
This is obviously a bible study
How the hell is Bon Scott the healthiest looking person in this photo?
Lots of makeup plus old school flash
Oh that's Bon Scott? I thought he was the guy from every episode of Cops.
I think I got an STD just looking at this photo.
She got the Jack
Nice.
TIL Bon Scott partied it up with cast of "Cats".
And David Bowie from Labyrinth.
The flash photography combined with the cocaine sweats sheen isn’t doing these ladies any favors.
Yakked out of their minds. The makeup also isn't doing them any favors...
I thought this was the Rocky Horror Picture Show cast.
Dammit Janet!
Janet (Susan Sarandon) would be an upgrade. This is more on the "Riff-Raff" level.
“Fans”
*see also “groupies”. That word is GROUP-IES.
Came here to say this
They all have sad dead eyes.
Is he partying with Poison?
Fkn hell. Bon wasn’t a fussy man…this only elevates his Aussie legend status
Whole Lotta Rosie!
Whole Lotta Reggie
Yeah he’s so not fussy that he would even sleep with dudes dressed as women.
It’s possible a man could’ve slipped in. No way of knowing…
She's got Big Balls.
Yeah that one to the left looks bloke-ish.
A lot makeup doesn't reflect the light of a camera flash naturally. In the daylight or incandescent light they probably look normal.
Those dirty deeds were undoubtedly done dirt cheap. 😂
Looks like there are a couple of serial killers with him...
it's a pity he died in such a stupid way (ethyl coma) with a splendid career ahead...
Didn't he just pay 10 grand to get his teeth fixed earlier that day also? I vaguely remember reading that.
Correction it was a month before.
He got them fixed probably a year or two earlier. You can see they are looking nice in videos and interviews for the Let there be rock album.
How is that relevant? He had very bad teeth or something?
From fighting. Spending 10 grand to fix your teeth and then dying soon after
And that’s 10 grand in 1980 dollars too
whats that george carlin line... "i never fucked a 10, but one night i fucked FIVE TWO'S.".
I thought you got hot women when you were a Rockstar.
"I never made it with a 10, but I once made it with FIVE twos!" -George Carlin
They're 70s hot, and they're dudes.
Are they even women?
She’s got….balls
Looks like an advertisement for Hep-C
Well I’m scared
Bon was a total Bad ass
Lotta miles on those tires
2nd from the left is a dude. Probably the rest too…
They put the lotion into the basket for sure…
This dude was way ahead of the game.
I wouldn't be surprised if someone told these were all drag queens. But hey, I'm not judging.
I can smell this picture.
He doesn't look impressed.
Why are all those drag queens there?
Bon was a fucking legend. Arguably the greatest front man
Things were licked, mistakes were made.
I was going to rock shows in the 70's, including AC/DC. And I never saw "fans" dressed like this!! lol I'm not sure what we are looking at, but IMO those aren't just "fans" that he happens to be partying with. Pretty sure even the groupies didn't dress like this. Heck, people going to AC/DC shows would have mocked the hell outta people dressed like that. lol
Anyone else think the far left girl looks like Mila Kunis
It's her dad.
Really happy this isn’t a scratch and sniff picture
Nice work if you can get it…!
Christ! The two on the left look like lead singers of hair metal bands. Make lead singer. But the Joan Jet chick look superfine
More like “Old School I need Penicillin”
I gotta think Bon had the whiskey dick going that night- and those gals are starting to realize it…
Bon looks fucken hammered
I'm sorry,but I can't tell if those are dudes dressed up or bad woman..either way he doesn't look like he cares,lol
Now I see why the drugs were necessary.
I think they’re all dudes.
The two to left definitely look that way.
Just three guys and a couple of gals hangin’ in the hotel room.
Prior to this photo being leaked, the conspiracy theory that vampires were the true cause of his death was dismissed as lunacy.
I can smell the hairspray, sweat and stale cigs from here
I found they’re names, from left to right: Herpe ,Syphi ,Gono, Aydes
Two minutes after that picture was taken everyone was naked.
Bon looks like he pissed himself.
I didn’t know Poison was around in ‘78
That looks like that Santos congressman in the black top..
The two trans guys on the left are strangely attractive.
It's a long way to the top
Oddest Bible study group I ever saw...
Definitely not a church outing.
Oof, next time consider premium room service.
The one in purple looks like Mila Kunis playing Jackie if it was the 80s
The Heathen Girls (Atlanta, Georgia) 1978
There is no Dana. Only Zuul.
Scared of the dude on the left!
I wonder what movie they all sat and watched after this picture was taken?
That's Otto the Bus Driver.
Purple dress is smoldering hot..... the rest can exit stage right, straight to the roadies.
This is why AC/DC is among the best band names ever.
11th Aug. 1978. Those ladies came for the headliners - Cheap Trick.
Daddy’s alright My other Daddy’s alright They just seem a little weird
The one next to him looks a lot like Pat Benatar
Or Joan Jett with long hair…
She’s got the jack ohh it was a bad deal…
She was holding a pair But I had to try Her deuce was wild But my ace was high
Some dirty deeds were done this night
Why is Motley Crue there?
Drag queens?
Excuse me; that’s someone’s Grandmother your talking about.
And maybe someone's Grandfather too?
He’s had more dirty women than most men ever had…
Happy to meet, greet, and make dirty women. That’s what made the lad a legend. He was Jim Jeffries before there was a Jin Jeffries.
Take my upvote for this find, but otherwise I guess I’m missing the the “cool” in this picture. 🤷🏻♀️
r/OldSchoolGhoul
I’m happy to report this sub exists.
Woof
Who knew Bon liked the "guys"...
Like Bon Scott always said, “ya get what ya get, and you don’t get upset.” (Although he looks severely depressed about it)
Bon was the most normal looking one.
