Wow, I can't belive I missed this thread! Well, duh, Styx. Too bad I missed the Styx debate. There could have been 3 contestants for biggest Styx fan! I am obsessed with Styx as you all know by now. Albums? I have too many to name. Concerts? They're all too far away. Too bad, I'm dieing to see them!

Classic rock is from the early '60s to '79, not to the early '90s, so much of your list is wrong. xp

Harvested Sorrow Classic rock is from the early '60s to '79, not to the early '90s, so much of your list is wrong. xp well thats two peoples opinion right?... I know 20 people who have agreed with me... and there are people who agree with you... but hell... no one out there knows what classic rock REALLY is... so .... why guess? I mean... I can logically see it not to be ANY bands through the 90's... rolleyes ... but you ATLEAST have to go to 1988.... because.... those 80's rock bands are too old to be considered new age rock... and.... by the way... If I still went by your date, only 23 of those bands aren't classic rock (going by your dates).... so whats with "SO MUCH OF YOUR LIST IS WRONG"??? confused ........ thats 23 BANDS outta 200... well... ive had this argument with many people... and I dont wanna do it again... sad

I believe that Classic rock has a certain feel to it, different than any other genre of music. You can just feel it, it's hard to explain....though, that's just my opinion. So many opinions. Just please don't call 'Guns 'N' Roses' Classic Rock....

And something not being "new" rock doesn't mean it's classic rock, that was a certain period in time that cannot be touched. xp As for much of your list was wrong...sorry, I just sorta skimmed through there, due to how huge it was. My mistake.

Just please don't call 'Guns 'N' Roses' Classic Rock.... Yea... I mean.. I can see Guns N' Roses not being Classic rock... I could just call them an "Old" rock band... but...... COMON... Def Leppard? Ozzy? Pat Benatar? Bon Jovi? You cant tell me that all that old hairband stuff isnt classic rock... eek ... Its true that Classic Rock does have a certain "feel" to it... but what people dont understand is that not ALL classic rock sounds the same... as the years go by, the sounds are gonna change... confused I mean... The Beatles were an early 60's group while AC/DC started in the mid 70's... Two VERY different sounds... but they are both classic rock.... right? confused So, 80's rock can be considered classic... just because the sound might be different, doesnt mean it isnt old and doesnt mean that it didnt mold rock into what it is today...
