Not old Green Day, that annoying Walk Alone song. This is a travesty!

Like people don't get bombarded enough by this crap on every other station on the dial.

It's totally out of left field. Q104 is usually a pretty good station. They'll occasionally play old Nirvana and Pearl Jam, but this? Why this???

*cries*

But seriously, if Pink Floyd made a new song yesterday, and it was played on a classic rock station, would you cry about it? Green Day is old school, I'm very sad to say. I remember having the Dookie album and getting Nimrod when it came out. That was like 8 years ago.

I think a song should have to be at LEAST 15 years old to get played on a classic rock station... maybe even 20.
And Green Day is not old school.

Except for Morrissey, who was made popular in the 80s, 90s music sucks. Absolutely sucks. Words cannot describe it.

80s British music pwns all.

The Black Crowes were classic rock when they first came out. They were great, but they were channeling early Stones when they came out.

If Green Day was played, maybe they're trying to expand from a classic rock station to a regular rock station.
