Calling all classic rock whores
« on: October 08, 2009, 08:43:01 PM »
I'm a huge fan of classic rock. Just wondering who else can join me. ;)

I like everything from the 70's up to the big hair bands of the 80's.

What's your favourite song/band?

I don't really get into classic rock. More into the early/mid-nineties alternative/grunge stuff.


Which, I guess, could be considered classic rock now.

Given the fact that we're not that far off from 2010, you're probably right. ;)

Favourite bands?

Hmmm...


Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Hum, Cake, Pearl Jam, etc.


Also like a lot of the newer rock like Chevelle, Seether, Revis, etc.


...and a lot of stuff inbetween. 80s and 90s gangster rap, Rat Pack, bagpipe music, 80s pop.

Music is my obsession. I listen to everything but death metal and punk. Everything else is on my list. 8) Right now I'm on a classic rock kick but it changes depending on my mood.

I'm obsessive about making playlists. I make them according to mood/experience. It's how I cope/think/chill/process. ;)

What program do you use?


How about live music? That's one of the things I love about Minneapolis. Lots of music fests and good bands to see. I saw Seven Mary Three and Spin Doctors a couple years ago, and Alice in Chains a couple years ago. Awesome shows.

I use iTunes. It keeps everything I buy in check along with everything that I don't download. ;)

I'm in the process of starting a blog to keep track of my playlists because I had a second generation iPod and the hard drive crashed so I lost my lists and given that it's my obsession I had a meltdown over it. :P

So I figure I need to organize it through an outside source. Of course, other people could probably not care less, but whatever. ;)

Love seeing bands live. It gives me a huge rush. Lately I've seen Cyndi Lauper, The Cliks, Indigo Girls, Finger Eleven (friends of mine), Elton John, Billy Joel, and a bunch of jazz bands. I've seen a lot of bands live. It's my favourite thing to do but I don't have anyone to go with here so I don't go as much as I want to.

I always wondered why they made their best album after he died.  Its cause for the first time, Angus and co actually put some effort in.  I love hearing the passion in the build up of Hells Bells.

I had a typo. Love the 60's too. I'm trying to figure out why I thought I should start  a thread about this while I had my second glass of wine last night. :lol:

Why not punk?  :(  What about post-punk?
