I like Iron Maiden a lot. One reason I like them is because they are a metal band and they have layered guitars. Plus there music is riff orientated.My favorite songs by them are (Run to the hills), (The number of the beast), (Iron Maiden), and (Aces High).
I can't wait till we start learning about 70's rock. There's a lot of bands I like that originated in the 70's. Pink Floyd, ACDC, Rush, Led Zeppelin. Out of all of those bands ACDC is my favorite. They have a lot of classic songs.

There's a band a friend of mine recommended to me called Black Country Communion. They've only been around a few years and only have 1 or 2 albums. I don't know if they're good or not but I'm going to download one of they're albums and try them out.

I thought that was insane how the drummer of THE WHO stuck actual dynamite in the drums. I mean he could've killed someone. I'm surprised the band didn't kick him out after that. I would've been furious if I was in a band and that happened. Also what was even more stupid was how he dove into an empty pool. Was he on drugs?

I started listening to a band called three days grace. They're pretty good and I recommend listening to them. My favorite songs by them are break, never to late, and lets start a riot.

I like the beatles better then the rolling stones. The reason why is because they have more hit songs then the rolling stones plus I think John Lennons voice better then Mick Jaggers. Though the rolling stones are one my favorite classic rock bands.

I went to see Roger Waters (the wall) last summer. It was a great concert. What made it really good is Roger Waters made the concert sound almost exactly like the album. Also it had really good props and a good light show. It was second best concert I've ever been to (best was ACDC).
I liked the documentary about the Beatles. I was surprised that at the time the Beatles hairstyles were considered outrageously long where now if a rock band grew their as long as the Beatles their hair would actually be considered short. Another thing that was weird was how crazy people were going everywhere they went.

I thought it was funny how a lot of the bands that you told us about were psychotic. Like Jerry Lee Lewis married his 12 year niece and he was a murderer also. Plus Elvis Presley was dating a girl named Priscilla before she was even 18, and I can't remember the name of the band this was ,but the one that I thought was the most bizarre was the band manager that fell in love with one of the band members mom had a kid and then got married to his mom and became his step dad.
My favorite type of rock is grunge. A lot of the reason I like it is because my dad listens to that kind of music a lot so I'm familiar with a wide variety of grunge bands. Another reason why I like grunge is because I like how the music is very uptempo and sounds kind of like hard rock and heavy metal.  One thing that I thing is strange is how during the 90's a lot of people in grunge bands started taking heroin. Like Kurt Cobain committed suicide because of an addiction to heroin. The singer from Alice in Chains died because of an overdose of heroin, and the singer from Sound Garden use to be hooked on heroin but then quit. I guess the reason rockers were on heroin was because it was just a popular drug in the 90's. My favorite bands are Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, and Sound Garden.
