AC/DC and the Juvenile Brilliance of "Big Balls"


April is Testicular Cancer Awareness Month, so the folks over at MEL decided to feature pieces all month about how balls are (and aren't) discussed in our society. This brings me to AC/DC, an Australian band who have made a career out of double entendres and locker-room talk. They are shameless in this regard, especially on a late-1970s song called "Big Balls." I wrote about its history and its strange second life here.
