View Full Version : Confession
Not only did my wife and I go to Best Buy (sorry, Norm), but I picked up Dio's Greatest Hits because it was only $7.99. Rainbow in the Dark and Last in Line rock. :O
Slightly off-topic, my daughter's boyfriend's reason for not knowing who sings Carry On My Wayward Son (they were playing Guitar Hero II), "I don't listen to Oldies." :mad:

I have an odd need, all of a sudden, to go play Guitar Hero.

Your daughter's boyfriend should be castrated...
...that is all.
how is Carry On My Wayward Son not an "oldie"?
surely it's "classic rock" at least

My grandmother listens to oldies, not me. Whippersnappers. :mad:

There is no shame in buying Dio's Greatest Hits. Rock on, Doc.
That reminds me, Pick of Destiny is on my Netflix list, but I don't think it's actually been released yet.

Prince should have done a Holy Diver cover at XLI instead of Proud Mary.

You're welcome.

Why do you let your daughter date losers?

Kinda what I was wondering. Poor parenting, I guess.

"Holy Diver, you've been down too long in the purple sea..."
Oldies are 50's and before. Classic rock is anything 60's-79. Right?
You're welcome.
No. You're welcome. Your percentage of $7.99 is on the way. :)

Oldies = 50's to mid 60's
Classic Rock = late 60's to mid 70's
Rock = late 70's to the beginning of the Grunge period
Everything after that is fractionalized and has a sub-genre.

Well you have punk, goth, and emo after Kurt Cobain died. Very little of it is any good, mostly because nobody tries to play guitar.

Punk was late 70's morphing into New Wave as the pop version of punk in the early 80's. The 90's had post-punk and those others fit into the fractionalized period after the advent of grunge.

Guitar Hero tells you who the song is by. He can't read. Why do you hate illiterates? ;)

I made them try to tell me from the playlist, before it shows who it's "made famous by". :)
Or, he may be illiterate. I should really be more sensitive to the needs of others.
