Not a major success at all.
Ok. I've heard of Pink Floyd. But I couldn't name a member of the band. Same with Def Leppard or AC/DC or Heart or Red Hot Chili Peppers or the not-Gwen Stefani members of No Doubt, and most other bands I've heard of. And I don't meant to suggest that unless I've heard of them a band or person hasn't had great success, that isn't true at all. There are thousands of incredibly successful musical artists I've never heard of.

If you want to have success and for me to know your name, you better put it in the band's name to have much of a chance.

And if you played me tracks of Dark Side of the Moon*, I'm sure I'd recognize the music but wouldn't be able to tell you who was playing it. Is that song with the children singing part of that album?


*On a middle school field trip we saw the Pink Floyd light show thing at OMSI in Portland, Oregon (the old one by the zoo) but I snuck out about 10 minutes into it so I could go see the interesting stuff.

Nope. You're thinking of The Wall, which is another monster hit album for them. You may have heard of the movie...

Morrigoon - don't feel too bad. The vast majority of the acts are lesser known, and on purpose. The few top bands bring you in but it's the surprise new acts that make Coachella a true experience.
