I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.

Nah, most people seem to find Gen X weird and cute. Everyone hates millennials the most. Even millennials hate millennials.

Smh classic rock used to be boomer-era. In a few years it'll encompass green day and then I'll know for sure that I am old

My local classic rock radio station played Welcome To The Black Parade.

It's truly over, bros.

Green Day was the only band I know of that voluntarily hitched itself to the chud attempt to start "Metalgate" after G*mergate took off. disgost

EDIT: I originally remarked about Green Day not being metal but I saw the genre struggle session in the rest of the threat and retracted that part. I personally get lost in the sauce when pedants fret about what is "core" or whatever so I'd rather just stick with the part about how disgusting it was to hear about Green Day doing that for chud clout.
