Yess, I really like the Metallica cover too.

I think Dancing In The Moonlight is one of my favourite Thin Lizzy songs.

Definitely, it bores the pants off me.

Out On The Tiles is much better.

Or Rock'n'Roll.

Lynyrd Skynyrd. Gary Rossington & Allen Collins on Freebird are immense. and Ronnie's vocals are awesome!

Too right.

It's like Gene Simmons in Kiss, people usually forget Paul, Ace and Pete because Gene takes the limelight.

Angus is pretty cool though!

I can't stand Geddy's voice so I'm not the biggest Rush fan.

Guys the actually society this thread was made for is still pending approval. If it's approved (and i can't see why it shouldn't be; there isnt another classic rock society already) i'l post the link up on here right away. I hope one day we can rival the metalhead society in member numbers :biggrin:

Classic rock for the win!

Stairway To Heaven is a masterpeice.
Aerosmith are the greatest classic rock band. :biggrin:

Why Aerosmith?
When you are saying they are better than the likes of Led zepo, Queen and thin lizzie, well, that's a tall order. What makes them deserve such a title? :tongue:

Steven Tyler has one of the most unique voices in music, plus the band is just pure hard rock and roll and its awesome :biggrin:

.
That said, could we call Guns N' Roses classic rock, in a sense they did do classic rock but arent a classic band but they were amazing. Led Zeppelin are being too sucky about going on tour, I mean it'd sell out almost instantly and they should preform for their life long fans.
Queen was all about Freddie Mercury, I dont think the new band is at all the same quality as it was but I think Brian May was a great guitarist but Jimmy Page was far better :biggrin:

.
Lets not forget Van Halen.....

Brian May is still a great guitarist i'l have you know!
That's why i'm going to see him. And good ol' roger too of course :smile:

Yeah I meant is, didnt mean it like he cant play anymore :biggrin:

.
Also I would regard The Who as classic rock and they really did start rock off in some respects, also Hendrix. SO many but none are as good as U2. (Waits for the U2 hate to come :biggrin:

)
