Get the Classic Rock mug.Classic Rock is undoubtedly one of the greatest genres of music this planet has ever seen. Classic Rock includes:
Cream, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, KISS, New York Dolls, Aerosmith, Queen, Sammy Hagar, Montrose and Ted Nugent. It does not- I repeat- does NOT include Mötley Crüe, Guns N' Roses or Metallica as some of these ass holes seem to think.

Stupid fuck: Dude, stop listening to that shit and listen to some Classic Rock like Metallica!
(I, then, beat SF's face in with a Queen record)
Me: No, dipshit, THAT'S classic rock.

Get the classic rock mug.An umbrela term for a large aray of guitar-driven music; much of the music falling under the term come from vastly different time periods and much of it have very little in common. This allows groups such as the Sex Pistols and The Beatles to be held in the same context. An example of confusion this term perpetrates is that Steely Dan and Boston are the same genre. This sort of confusion continues into infinity. Any guitar-led band from 1965 to 1989 has probably been considered "classic rock" on a few occasions.
Joseph: "Say, Mel, I hear the kids are calling Guns 'n' Roses 'classic rock' these days."
Melatrophine: "They call Bob Dylan and Neil Young 'classic rock,' too.
Joseph: "I must say, thay makes no sence at all."

Get the classic rock mug.A person who loves the musical genre classic rock, which includes bands such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Doors, ACDC, and The Who. They are uninterested in modern music. Sometimes, they are of the opinion that any new music is terrible, in other cases they admit that some of it is good, it just doesn't interest them. Often times they find themselves pretending to love the new alternative band their friend is showing them while wishing they were at home listening to The White Album. Many classic rock junkies are afraid to admit they are indeed a classic rock junkie for fear of being called narrow-minded.

Get the classic rock junkie mug.A collection of hits from various genres and bands from the 60s, 70s and 80s, generally played on classic rock stations. It is a distinctly American phenomenon (that is, other countries do not have classic rock stations per say) and generally features North American and British/Irish bands.
Pink Floyd's album, "Dark Side of the Moon," is part of the classic rock canon. Their earlier albums, such as "Meddle," are not.
