Well, I've been told classic rock ends at '79. That's a while before grunge began in full.

[QUOTE=rock not roll]Classic rock is by far the best kind of music.

Why did I have to be born in the late 80s? :upset: I'll never get to see Zeppelin in concert.[/QUOTE]
I feel your pain. :upset: :upset: I LOVE Led Zeppelin, and I, too, was born in the late 80s. The weird thing is neither of my parents are Zep fans. :angry: I like some modern rock too, but probably not as much as the classic bands.

Favorite classic bands:
Led Zeppelin
The Who
Scorpions
The Beatles
AC/DC
Metallica
Iron Maiden
Black Sabbath
Aerosmith
Motley Crue
Elvis Presley

Van Halen is th ebest band ever, the things that man can do are amazing!

Van halen is the best rock band ever, the things thnat man can do while he is smoking a cigerette are amazing!

man we've had a bunch of new members in here since i came on yesterday...

poundcake...if you plan on visiting this site regularly, i suggest you don't make two posts saying the exact same thing. especially about van halen.

yesterday me and my guitar teacher were playing some bluegrass songs, and he was playing harmony. i told him i started listening to the grateful dead and i noticed they do a lot of harmony with some good bluegrass roots, and he told me he used to be the hugest deadhead. i knew he was a fan of bluegrass and folk,as well as some blues, but i didn't know he liked the dead. he said he saw a few of their shows in the early seventies and they were his favourite live band.


and addicted2myguitar: i wouldn't really consider Metallica classic rock, i dont care if you are a fan of theirs, but this isnt the right thread to discuss them. motley crue is pushing the limit as well.

Way to keep those noobs in line.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to thickasabrick again.

sorry.

need some help
 

Hi there !

I hope somebody can help me..
Am searching for a song from the '60-'70s. I dont know from who the song is,but i know one thing from the lyric :

Whooooooooooooooohhh jah... Whoohooooooooooooooohhh jah !

Thats all i know.Its not mutch information,sorry.
( Ohw yeah,its a singer,a male.. )

Sorry about my english,am from Belgium..

Euhm,not really,sorry.. Its a sort of classic rock,like Jimmi Hendrix.

John Lennon died 24 years ago today try to play only John Lennon\Beatles to respect the greatest musical mind the world has seen. :upset:

John Lennon Forever.

My teacher brought that up today, and then this little bi[b][i][/i][/b]tch kid started talking about his "knowledge" of classic music. What it boiled down to was that he "hates when people call Twisted Sister one hit wonders", he's so excited that Motely Crue is getting back together, he hates Pink Floyd and "acid rock" (which I don't really consider them anyways), and he thinks Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and John Lennon are all overrated. I was so enraged I could not concentrate on class for the rest of the hour. I hope I see him in the parking lot after school. I really want to hit him with a bat.

what do you mean? you mean i should start repping people? or that i should try to have a good reputation before i put other people down? im very confused.

i hate getting in arguments over music at school. it isn't bad on the internet, because you can show links to sites to show your facts, but if the internet/any resources arent handy, they can pass off all kinds of s[COLOR=White]h[/COLOR]it as facts.

i may have mentioned this before, but one time we were discussing Stairway to Heaven in english, and one kid said "didn't van halen write stairway?" and i kinda half flipped out on him. and then the teacher said "calm down jeff! led zeppelin didn't write it anyway...it was the other guy."

im not sure if she thought led zeppelin was a member of the band, or who the other guy was supposed to be, but i sure was angry because i really couldnt argue back.

nope,not immigrant song,but thanx for helping me !

The saddest thing I've noticed is that it's slowly become more acceptable to like [I]hair metal[/I], which was an abomination in the 80's and still sucks just as bad today.

ya that's true. there were bands i find enjoyable, like van halen and guns n roses,def leppard maybe. but things like Warrent, RATT, i can't even think of anymore but you know what i mean. they totally over-cheesified rock.

hey steff stick around and chat, what bands are you into? do you play any instruments?

*listinig to "I am Walrus".Is respecting John*

thickasabrick voted stairway. Sad day :(

[QUOTE=Schyma000]John Lennon died 24 years ago today try to play only John Lennon\Beatles to respect the greatest musical mind the world has seen. :upset:

Im gunna quote this all day.

[QUOTE=Schyma000]thickasabrick voted stairway. Sad day :([/QUOTE]

da[COLOR=White]m[/COLOR]n straight. i think the choices up there sucked though. even the crappiest metal song could make it to the top ten just because all the metalheads would rather vote for it than a good rock song.
everyones afraid to vote for stairway because they will be called a noob, or a fanboy or something.

i was very torn between the two Floyd songs, so i figured Stairway would solve those problems. Face it, it is a good song.

whats the deal with Supertramp?

they seemed to be like a pop band who wrote unbeleivably great songs, and were great musicians. i have a few of their albums, my favourite is probably crime of the century, or breakfast in america. i realize calling them a pop band may have been a little pompous, but its true...if you listen to their albums, they had way more pop songs than rock songs. yet they were still a huge band in the seventies rock scene.

i think they are a great band. anyone else like them? anyone totally disagree with what i said?

Hit your teacher.

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Hit your teacher.[/QUOTE]

i'd hit her alright...just not in the way you want me to. (HOT TEACHER)

good god, we got this afternoon off of school, so i wanted to go check out some Records to buy. At one oclock my brother got home with the car (we share one) and i asked him if he needed it anymore. he said he needed it to go out for lunch. he didn't come back with it until right now, (3:30 where i live). now i have to drive like a madman to make it before the store closes.

i will inform you guys on what i bought when i come back. stay tuned.

Today is the 24th anniversary of John Lennon's death, but on a ligher note, it's also Gregg Allman's 57th birthday. Just wanted to point that out.

RIP John and Happy Birthday Gregg.

Its a day of celebration and mourning.

Oh and happy birthday to Gregg and that guy in my avatar thats to cool for X mas.

[QUOTE]oh and i finally read badmoons featured artist on the Grateful Dead. I dunno how long ago he did that, but i just read it. its good. anyone who hasnt read it should check it out. (Other Music)[/QUOTE]

I can actually prove some of the facts on that wrong. A lot of the older sources I use to read about Jerry Garcia and The Grateful did were wrong. Soory :upset:

[QUOTE]Have you heard the live at the royal albert hall Album with him on it then?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, pretty good album :)

[QUOTE=HeavyRiva]Well, I've been told classic rock ends at '79. That's a while before grunge began in full.[/QUOTE]

I think classic rock ends in the early 80's. Some of Floyd, Rush, ect. was released in the 80's.

I just got "Who's Next" but would've liked "Freewheelin Bob" much more

Happy Birthday to Jim Morrison!

Happy Birthday to all! My respects to Lennon.

[QUOTE=magicbus]Happy Birthday to Jim Morrison![/QUOTE]

Man Im glad someone noticed. :)

/me listens to Hallowed Be Thy Name in Lennon's honor....oh wait....
/me listens to Imagine next

I ordered Happy Trails from Amazon. I hope it's good.

That was a funny story, maybe you should attack him in classic rock themed way. ie. hit him with flaming guitar or something.

I was gonna go with steel bat, but flaming guitar is much more symbolic. I'll do that tomorrow.
