[Optical]

I noticed that it might be that after I posted but thought 'hey, if somebody else gets it, I don't really care'.

On that note, since I can't think of anything, open floor.

Member: ABBA, Queen, Elvis Presley, Billy Joel, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Elton John, AC/DC
Non-Member: Madness, The Scorpions, Rihanna, Shihad

 

[Nintz]

I would say bands active during the 70s, but for Scorpions.

Then there was possibly personal changes, yet ABBA had none and AC/DC did.

Lifespans are drastically different as well, with The Beatles' very short (physical) career, and the long ones such as Queen. No continuity there.

Maybe...

I don't know. More guesses.
