[QUOTE=ledpoisoning27]I've branch out a lot in the last 4 years i liked classic rock from acid rock to early punk (Velvet Underground, Iggy and the Stoogies) to folk (Bob Dylan) and i like most any bands that can be considered classic rock now of days.[/QUOTE]
I love the Velvet Underground, Iggy and the Stooges, MC5, Patti Smith,
you happen to be one very cool person :D

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]I know. There are clearly exceptions to every rule, of course.[/QUOTE]

It still nicely fits my theory.

[QUOTE=i_am_Jimmy_Page]Hmm,
I just read the first page of this thread again,
who do you think are fore-runners for 'modern' classic rock?
The only bad I can see who isn't emo and doesn't suck are Queens Of The Stone Age,[/QUOTE]
RHCP?

[QUOTE=Livewired]RHCP?[/QUOTE]
Well I dunno,
they're more funk orientated than a lot of Classic Rock,
personally I'd say QOTSA

Well Gov't Mule is the obvious choice on this topic but it was already said.

thanks reps++
I've only gotten into them around in the summer because i moved and all my neighbors are mostly all punk ( i mean real punk, not the emo type) so they told me a would be into these bands and i loved it, we started a band that played that type of music, but are guitarist/singer, got a girlfriend and is always hangs out with her and never wants to practice, he's gone emo. :angry: we got another guitarist but no one can sing, the best singer in are band is now me, but i play drums i really really can't sing and play. :upset:

[QUOTE=Livewired]RHCP?[/QUOTE]
Nah. They they just don't suck.

Soundgarden, Guns N Roses, stuff like that i'd say. Although I really don't know what you mean by modern classic rock.

I never got into Zeppelin, I don't think I ever will either.

I started out liking Queen, then instead of Queen I liked mellow stuff which led me to Traveling Wilburys...and then I just went crazy from there.

i like the Hives

I hope someone posts before me so I don't do the horrid double-post...but I was gonna say I think most jam-bands are "modern classic rock" because of their influences. And as you all have said I agree Gov't Mule would take the cake...Black Crowes kinda pops up in my head too.

Anyone recommend me some Stooges albums. I only have Raw Power.

when i first got into classic rock, i like the heavier stuff such as Zeppelin because beofre i like classic rock i was into punk, such as Ramones, Clash, etc. But over the last two years i have beening liking a lot more mellow stuff.

The Stooges
Fun House

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Anyone recommend me some Stooges albums. I only have Raw Power.[/QUOTE]
thats reminds me, Woodstock you said in the 'trade albums over AIM' that you could give me that album, can you still you that to me?

Ooh, I came from liking ****ty rap, to The Roots then to liking rock. I never was/will be into heavy/punk stuff.

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]The Stooges
Fun House[/QUOTE]
Thanks

No problem.

There's also a live DVD ("Iggy and the Stooges Live in Detroit, 2003")

[QUOTE=Jam2Me]Ooh, I came from liking ****ty rap, to The Roots then to liking rock. I never was/will be into heavy/punk stuff.[/QUOTE]
yeah their has been a lot of punk influences on my music it seems. i never liked much of rap, except of some 80's rap like Public Enemy, which are alright.

[QUOTE=Jam2Me]Ooh, I came from liking ****ty rap, to The Roots then to liking rock. I never was/will be into heavy/punk stuff.[/QUOTE]

I was never too keen on The Roots, actually. They strike me as being kinda "meh".

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]No problem.

If you've heard of The Stooges album, Metallic KO, I was impressed to find out my Dad was at the concert it was recorded at. It was The Stooges' last live show.

Did not know that.

If I had rep left to give I would rep++ for that.

He said he got so much Iggy-sweat and beer thrown on him. What an honor.

[QUOTE=Jam2Me]I never will be into heavy/punk stuff.[/QUOTE]


never say never

[QUOTE=BillCosby]never say never[/QUOTE]
yeah man, i used to hate bands that screamed like shadows fall, now i love them, and of course i love classic rock

How come we never talk about Zappa in here? :upset:

[QUOTE=magicbus]How come we never talk about Zappa in here? :upset:[/QUOTE]
Hot Rats is awesome. I hear good things about Apostrophe, but I haven't heard it.

[QUOTE=magicbus]How come we never talk about Zappa in here? :upset:[/QUOTE]


I guess he's a pretty good mod.


haha joke

I never saw what was so fascinating about The Stooges.

Now The MC5, there's a good band.

[QUOTE=magicbus]How come we never talk about Zappa in here? :upset:[/QUOTE]
Beats me. Zappa is an excellent musician, but a little wierd. Steve Vai started his career off with Zappa
