Why do so many people like classic rock?!


Question: Are these people serious? What's up with all the AC/DC merchandise? I see more teenage girls wearing AC/DC stuff than anyone else! I grew up listening to AC/DC because that's what my parents listened to, and to be honest, I couldn't stand listening to it!

Now it seems like everyone likes them, even 12 year olds. Am I the only one being truthful or what? I think classic rock sucks. I understand that people who grew up in the 70's and 80's would like classic rock because it was part of their generation, and they probably think music from the 90's and now sucks.

my point is, I think a lot of the younger people who say they like AC/DC and all those other classic rock bands are posers.

AC/DC (LOL, that's not one of my top picks), I love classic rock, I started listening to it a couple of years ago, and it's all I listen to now, I'll have people ask me if I heard a certain song from a new band and I'll stand there clueless cause I don't even know who they're talking about...but I love the whole sound, the lyrics, the perfect guitar solos, the whole vibes I get... I have loads of albums I've bought, not downloaded from the internet like most cheap bastards out there, and I only buy the music, I haven't bought any clothing items to show off... I'm rambling on again, but I don't consider myself a poser, I just love the music.

Because they never listend to REAL ROCK: Funkadelic

Seriously you'll be shocked that this music was happening in the 70's. It will change your perspective on what music is...

Those guys were FAR ILLER than all the other bands in the 70's

FUNK ON!!! THERE IS NOTHING THAT THE PROPER ATTITUDE WON'T RENDER FUNKABLE!!!

ac dc is one of my fave bands. and always will be. if you didn't grow up with it, you may not like it

i agree with you. they wear it because they think it's cool. they are lame-o's.

the teens of today like it b/c they have been brought up by their parents listening to it....there really isn't anything wrong with it...to each his own.

I like classic rock because that's what I grew up with and coincidentally I hate AC/DC. It also happens that I like a lot of current music. After 30 or so years I just got tired of listening to the old stuff all the time, so I started listening to the same radio stations my son listens to. And I have noticed that they will still play AC/DC from time to time, as well as Nirvana and Ozzy.

Well that's a matter of opinion, I personally don't think classic rock sux that was when music was real music, I think it's great that the younger generation is rocking the band names that goes to show the classic rock will never die!!!

Rock ON!!!!

I think that the bands from the 70's and 80's are the only bands that actually know how to play an instrument, and not just hammer out a tune, or play the same 3 cords over and over. The music from that era has to do with a wide array of emotions, so many can relate. I don't think that all the young people out there that say they like AC/DC are posers. Just cause they are young does not mean that they have to follow the main stream and listen to today's top 40. when my daughter was 13 we were listening to AC/DC in the car...she said it was crap, but then 2 days later she took my Cd and was listening to it on her portable player, and dancing around her room. Not a poser there, she just became exposed to something different to her, and decided she liked it.

My dad listened to classic rock and metal, so until recently that was all I listened to... Hehe, I still love Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Led Zep, Def Leppard, Guns N Roses, Van Halen, Aerosmith, Motely Crue, Motorhead... A lot of good rock (a lot of the best rock, too) did come from the 70s and 80s. Recently I got into a lot of punk and some newer rock and electronica (AFI is probably my favorite band now; YES if there are any AFI fans out there, I love other things besides DU), so my music taste has become a little more varied.

But, that is besides the point... People like rock in general now because it is popular, and lately AC/DC has been in style. (Many of the same people buying those bags are the same idiots that would've laughed at you for not liking rap three years ago and crappy pop bands six years ago.) Everything goes in cycles... x.x Yes a lot of people are posers, but some are not... Judge on the person.
