(Some Of) The Kids Are Alright

Rolling Stone is reporting that the sacred flame of classic rock is being actively replenished by enlightened teens discovering the true shit: Floyd, Zep, the Who, Hendrix, etc., and to this fellow I call this good fucking news. To hell with wanker emo rock (yeah I'm talking to you Death Cab for Cutie!), hip hop (unless your talking underground hip hop- where it belongs), and rap metal- the kids need a grounding in the basics and I'm glad they're getting it, and buying electric guitars themselves. Get back to the garage kids! Kick out the jams! Give us Americans something to come together and rock to! Be rock stars goddamnit- reach for the gold ring!
