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.

Let's agree: Carry on Wayward Son is the best classic rock song. Like all good classic rock it also falls on the proggy side of things.

The guitar players in Kansas were cool. They couldn't afford guitar straps so they stole horse halters and used those.

Nope. Punk came around for a reason.

Have to disagree. "Rock Band" killed that one for me.
