listening to Alexrainbird music on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke5P...8&spfreload=10 new artists, kind of homogenous sounds. the AF firewall will allow it.

I listen to the 60s on 6 and 70s on 7 on Sirius. Occasionally the 80s on 8 but generally not.
Modern rock stinks and get off my lawn.

I use spotify and stream alternative. It works well for me as today's alternative will be future classics. Old rock is old and I've heard it all before. I like old cars but not old music so much.

You do realize that a ton of classic rock is over fifty years old. 50 years! Now, when you were 22, what was fifty year old music? Did you hear it anywhere?
I was dragged to a Steve Miller/ Peter Frampton concert last summer. (I liked her, otherwise). Both were 70. But, the crowd! Holy mackerel. There were wheelchairs and walkers, I kid you not. Most people looked like hell. So, don't despair, soon this classic rock thing will die off, much like the doo wop music I used to hear on WCBS radio in NYC in my youth, simply because it's audience will pass. Love doo wop, though. Miss it. If you want good radio with new stuff, find a college or listener supported station.

Anyway, my point is there is a ton of young blood out there that hasn't been tainted by the music industry. Harder to source, but interesting - and worthwhile. I still get lost in Pink Floyd, YES, Muddy Waters, Genesis, Zep, The Who, Nirvana, The Cure, Black Flag, GI, Husker DU, but sometimes a new genre finds its way over - like Nightwish, Within Temptation, Epica, Slipknot, Disturbed, Pantera, Opeth, and now Jinjer... |

I stream KEXP out of Seattle. It's radio that plays things you will never hear elsewhere, while playing some wonderful familiar music and great live tracks.

A high schooler in the 80s classic rock was old and boring then and mostly tedious today. Admittedly Riot Fest is as close to a classic punk rock festival as exists today, but at least a third of the bands are new. It's honestly the new bands I go for. IMO Classic Rock aficionados would be more tolerable if there was interest in the sound rather than holding up ancient bands as a gold standard. </rant> Exhibit A: Clutch is making classic rock and it's good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4ABpbxIPFI |

And almost all their shows are archived. WFMU from Jersey also archives their stuff.
