OK. Rush is a kick-a** band, but when I say this is Rush people are like who? I even know people who have never heard of Stairway to heaven/ Led Zeppelin. and if I mention the Who/ The Guess Who people not only get them confused but have no Idea about them either. I am 15 but love classic rock and no one my age (except 1 or 2 people) have any idea what I am talking about. I mean not hearing of Led Zeppelin?!?!?!?

w00t!! amen!! I love it too and im 13!! I even have conversataions with my teachers about classic rock. Its kinda fun. I have lots of friends who love it to who i hang out with. Some classic rock would be alwys be nice, but we do have lots of it so far. What we need is not to expand on any bands already in the game but get new ones
I mean, weres the 60s stuff, the Pink Floyd, the Led Zepp, the Van Halen, the Eagles, the Skyntrd, the Allmans, the Clapton. Theres so much were missing.

It's inevitable, really, especially for an average person your age. Back in 19coughHACKcough when I was 15, somebody could have mentioned Link Wray or Les Paul (hint: early guitar legends), and I would have said, "Huh? Who dey? Where's my U2 and REM??" Fortunately, most people develop a better appreciation of the older stuff as they get, well, older.
Good for you for bucking the trend and learning you can appreciate good music regardless of its age.It's all right. Everything will work out fine.
It's all right. We're going to the end of the line!

Oh yeah, I dont like Link Wray because he pioneered the thing that is the most annoying thing about todays music - Power Chords!

Diss the power chord all you want, but it has fueled some bona fide rock classics.
Without the power chord, we wouldn't have "Iron Man" or "Smoke on the Water" or a good chunk of the punk catalog.It's all right. Everything will work out fine.
