[QUOTE=peawea601]im always one to break away from the crowd and thats why i first started playing guitar,to be different. [/QUOTE]

Playing guitar to be different? You do realize that at some point in time almost every male between the ages of 13 and 17 has considered playing guitar.

And I already taught him Back in Black and Hells Bells, thanks for the reply thought!

I hate business, screw business.

The worst is the fact that people play guitar (or any other instrument but not as much) to be cool. It gets to the point where it's just annoying.

(all the smilies were to break up the large text)
no i never realized that, i only know two kids my age (im 16) that play its mostly older poeple around here.
other cool AC/DC songs to try: big gun, dirty deeds, shook me all night long

Teach the kid Highway to Hell.

I have the Absolute Best of Eric Burdon and the Animals.:cool:

About half of the guys in my school play guitar. However, none of them bother to be good at it, so all they can play is screamo crap. I'm one of three (no exaggeration) guitarists out of the 100 or so that play that can play a decent solo.

[QUOTE=peawea601]i used to listen to rap. :upset:
i got so sick of that ****[/QUOTE]

I stopped reading after that.

I wanted to play guitar immediately after hearing "Little Wing" for the first time. I got inspired.

There are many guitarists in my school who are much faster than me, because they are into the whole "practice scales for 2 hours a day" type of thing, whereas I just like to jam and write my own music. But there is one guitarist in my school that I would actually bow down to. He's amazing. He teaches guitar in the same school I do, although I got the job because my guitar teacher runs the school, he got the job through word of mouth. He's probably the best guitarist in Regina under the age of twenty, he has mastered just about all types of music.

And I was considering teaching my student Highway To Hell, just because it's easy, and he could probably end up learning the solo, You Shook Me All Night Long as well...that's a fun solo for beginners.

There was this kid playing an acoustic guitar during lunch period today. He was just doing it to get attention, and I wanted to go smash it over his head. But, I wouldn't have enough money to repay him.

It would've been worth it.

Classic rock is cool, so is Booker T. Anyone like any of the players in the Blues Brothers Band. Mine would be Steve Cropper and Duck Dunn. Both are great musicians.

[QUOTE=xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx]Does anyone have Fresh Cream? I never hear anything about it.[/QUOTE]

Fresh Cream is great. It's hard to top Disraeli Gears and Wheels of Fire, but I think it's just as good, but in a different way. It's got more of a raw bluesy sound to it.

There are a lot of kids like that here. There are these two kids that walk around with their guitars for no reason.

my friend did that one day. but then i realized it was halloween and he was elvis

[QUOTE=Freddie9]my friend did that one day. but then i realized it was halloween and he was elvis[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty sure neither of them were Elvis.

Hey would old 50's rock like Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry count as classic rock?

Bob Dylan. I have 15 of his albums.

EDIT: My friend is going to let me burn [I]Love and Theft[/I] onto my laptop, so that makes 15.

9 or 10 neil young related albums

12 Beatles albums

and thanks lunch for noticing my post before

Well, I had just added to my Grateful Dead family collection. So the total count is 30 albums.

So today at school this (chubby\nice) girl came up to me and said "Can I see your CD's?" "Sure" I said so I let her see them she fliped though all of them pointed to PATGOD and she said "Pink Floyd...cool....didnt they just come out with a new album?" "Well...not that Im aware of." I said "You know that one with triangle on it?"

^This has disturbed me...(not that she wants to get in paints) but that Classic Rock is starting to creep back out into popularity. I see tons of Floyd, Beatles, LS and Led Zeppelin shirts and these names are starting to become popular again. It brings a question. Will Classic Rock influence our generation of music? Can this be a bad thing?

I am aware this is similer to the 1st post of this thread but Im not questioning CR's popularity and Im not just stating it eithert Im just asking: Will Classic Rock influence our generation of music?

I've been thinking about breaking down the writing patterns (rhyme schemes, concepts, etc) of avarious Grateful Dead or Phish albums. May turn out to be something interesting

I don't think classic rock is become influential again so much as it has become trendy.
