More like you were too lazy to dig outside of your parents' anemic and uninspired record collection or turn off KZOK. Not saying it's all bad, but "classic" status in "rock" music can be easily and rightfully extended to bands/releases from the 90's and beyond. And ditch the Led Zeppelin shirt. That mess is tired and about as definitive as having eating food and watching sports for hobbies.
Iron Maiden, Motorhead and Black Sabbath are not classic rock, since they receive little to no play on stations designated to play such music (ironically, because they probably rock too hard for the wuss-demographic who make up the majority of radio's audience). That's right. Black Sabbath are not classic rock. You might occasionally hear "Iron Man" and "Paranoid" on the airwaves, but that's it - which is criminal considering the plethora of raditude that band produced (Dio years included).
So when someone asks you if you like classic rock, tell 'em Dave Wood says "to hell with you and your misnomers."
