alls I gots is time...

This is a travesty. I know this might be a mildly controversial issue, but we need to talk about the definition of Classic Rock.

To me, and I know there might be people who disagree, but Classic Rock is a PERIOD SPECIFIC genre of music. The specific period it encompasses is the 60s and 70s of the 1900 persuasion. It does not evolve like "Oldies" inevitably will.

Clarification:

CLASSIC ROCK -
Rolling Stones
Led Zeppelin
The Who
Pink Floyd
Queen
Allman Brothers, etc.

NOT CLASSIC ROCK -
Stone Temple Pilots
REM
U2
Guns N' Roses
Bon Jovi

Don't get me wrong, I like U2. That doesn't make them Classic Rock. 92.5, I'm disappointed in you.

I'm with you on this one. I think 92.5 is trying to keep up with 93.3.

Hmmm, so where does AC/DC fit?

AC/DC doesn't deserve to fit in anywhere! Ugh!
