I take umbrage at them being called "classic rock." Classic rock is, to me, a specific genre of rock music from the 60s–80s, and it has a particular style and sound.

Throwing Green Day and Linkin Park in with the Eagles and Fleetwood Mac just makes the word "classic" meaningless.

I've got some bad news: in the '80s we had classic rock and it didn't include '80s music.

Yeah to me Classic Rock is 60's and 70's. Classic Rock is a genre not classic rock, rock which is classic, classic meaning it has stood the test of time. Linkin Park may be classic at this point, but they're not Classic Rock.
