Take the quiz!

The Veteran
You scored 84%!

You've picked up the majority of the classic rock basics. You probably have a classic rock collection and can sing along with most of the songs on your local radio station. This is not the highest score, but it is arguably the best: that subtle combination of impressive knowledge and not being a pretentious geek.


I blame it on the fact that I'm crap at identifying lyrics, and that I know nothing about Neil Young or Jackson Browne. I wanted to be a pretentious geek!

I did better than I thought I would given that I'm mostly a hits person with older groups. I had the same problem you did - lyrics. I guessed on some!

God, I spend too much time listening to music !!! But I love it so much, it's like crack

Rock Star
You scored 92%!
You damn rock star. You know all the basics, and if you got any wrong, I bet it was that stupid Traveling Wilburys question. Your friends are probably intimidated by your knowledge of classic rock and envy your impressive collection. When a classic rock song comes on the radio, you can probably identify it before the vocals kick in most of the time. You probably get good scores on the "maiden name of Clapton's mom" tests, too.

Veteran 84 %....I'm satisfied

Btw, what do y'all think was the greatest lyrical travesty on the last question?

I went with Britney excluding the smoking line from Satisfaction. It bugged me from the moment I bought that album...woops! I wasn't supposed to admit that.

bwaaahahahaha! I actually was thinking "What the hell? He actually bought that?" when I read that.

minneapolisgenius said:

Yes. At one time I had a Britney album. I haven't anymore, but don't think I haven't seriously considered that greatest hits set. I get all school girl giddy when I hear Crazy (Stop Remix).

but c'mon though, nothing could be worse than "I hope I DON'T die before I get old"

I only got Veteran!!!
