Wow and i thought it was just me!
 

Hi.
I read your forums and realized,"Hey, That's me! Every song on my playlists are older than me too!(BTW i'm 14)I am a very avid classic rock lover. Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Rush and so on. I am also appaled by the rise of rap's popularity. To me, it is nothing but talking to an offbeat. What a waste of a good LP. Anyway, I just wanted to reply to your letter and let you know that you're not the only one. :thumb:

[QUOTE=badmoon349]^Bob Marley - Burnin'

The Grateful Dead - Workingman's Dead

That's what I'd add, in your case.[/QUOTE]

My dad was quite the dead head in his day. I'll get that too. Thanks.

Good to talk to another classic rock love but you can't just disreguard all rap music. What about the old stuff like Jurasic 5, tupac, run dmc, N.W.A, Beastie boys wtc... Ihate that new mtv junk all about drugs and sex and partys but the old stuff was good before the genre lots it's way. You can't be so closed minded.

;) The Who Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are all in my top 5 favorite bands.

I live in detroit michigan. igrew up on classic rock i started listening to pink floyd then to zeppelin yes seger and **** like that i would have to say at fraser high im the only one who likes classic rock. i would say that me and my two cousins are the only teenager fans of classic rock in southeast michigan im glad that i found other fans of it i thought it was diying out :thumb:

[QUOTE=B0nz0]so are there any other classic rock fans out there, and even if ur not, have u been noticing somewhat of a revival in interest for that sort of music?[/QUOTE]

I've been a classic rock fan all my life (though I'm only 23 :)) i have seen Uriah Heep in action like 8 times, and I met and became friends with one of their former frontmen. Subsequently I have started a fanclub for him, check it out @ [url]http://www.johnlawtonbandclan.be[/url]

[QUOTE=B0nz0]^they have yet to prove to me they don't suck and gain my respect. and their one song is not up to classic rock standards...[/QUOTE]

I live in england and the darkness' album has been out for quite a while. You should listen to it if you like classic rock.but the solo's are all the same and I am very bored of them!

My favourite classic rock bands are...
Led-Zep
The Who
The Jimi Hendrix Experience
and many many others

i don't know any of ian anderson's solo stuff. but i just got Who's Next. now that's a great cd. if any of u have the new one with the added songs, they have a second version of behind blue eyes, which i find to be better than the original. give it a listen.

Baba O'reilly is da.............:cool:. And Behind blue eyes if one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard, lousy limp biskit :angry:

Yeah what's worse, is that most kids here think it's 'such a beautiful song' but don't even know that the songs wasn't by Limp Bizkit. fu[SIZE=2]c[/SIZE]kers

Well i might as well make my way back over the yonder
Way back upon the hills
Lord i might as well go back over the yonder
Way back over the yonder cross the hill
Cause if my baby dont love me no more
I know her sister will

Haha genius, im in a Hendrix-loving mood right now

Led Zeppelin are my favourite band even thugh they broke up 9 years before I was born. I only need one more album to there original collection and that's "presence".

I haven't really heard any of The Who and it's a shame because people say they're really good.

I love the darkness i reckon there hilarious. They have brung classic rock back in even though they don't fit right into the classic rock scene if you get what i'm saying.

I've got a band at school and we do a lot of Zeppelin covers even Stairway To Heaven and Moby Dick (including the drum solo).

Classic Rock is back in fashion trust me i should know i'm 15 i've told everyone at school listen to Zeppelin, listen to Zeppelin, but their all caught up in the rap scene aand it's irritating me.

I also love Queen, AC/DC, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton and of course Dire Straits.


Zeppelin rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rock On!!!!

Being a huge fan and knowing all their albums quite well, I'd say [I]Who's Next[/I] is one of my least favorite. Don't get me wrong, it's still great, but doesn't have a great meaning. Like [I]Tommy[/I], it's gives a fabulous story, and is actually about the problems Pete Townsend was having. Very similiar to varous other Who albums. So what I'm trying to say is that it's great, yet overrated in my opinion. It's like a greatest hits album.

[QUOTE]dude, eric clapton and cream are one and the same, you are a classic rock poser my friend [/QUOTE]

Excuse me, my friend, you believe that The Dead Kennedys are Classic Rock. I think we all know who the poser is.

the ramones, the dead kennedys, the knack, oingo boingo he said CLASSIC ROCK all those bands are 80s punk or new wave bands

[QUOTE=nrapyrodrumr]dude, eric clapton and cream are one and the same, you are a classic rock poser my friend[/QUOTE]

Cream was a band that Eric Clapton was in. Eric Clapton later went solo and had completely different songs.

N00b.

Alot of those are punk and we have talked about lynyrd skynyrd alot. You didn't read the whole thread so how could you know? You also replyed to a post of mine on the first page. Wtf man just go away.

Classic rock days till the eighties is when the best musicians were. Now all modern music sux, especially emo posers like good charlet and simple plan, rap and heavy metal crap. Jimmy Page from Led Zepplin, Angus Young from Ac Dc, John Bonmon, Jimmy HEndrix Clapton, and NEil PEart were some of the best musicians. In my opinion, teh only good bands these days are the ones that started in the 80s like Chilli Peppers, Aerosmith, Rush, and AcDc. i listened to the "best" songs on the radio, none of them required any talent. Death to good charlette!!!
