Like my dad always tells me, I am a born-again 60s-80s child.
I love rock n roll. If it comes from the 60s, 70s, or 80s, I’m listening to it. I am a huge, huge, huge Aerosmith fan. How can you resist Steven Tyler’s lyrical genius-ness with the combination of Joe Perry’s amazing skills on the guitar and good looks? You can’t, in my opinion.
Another favorite combination of mine would have to be cattle shows and classic rock. Nothing gets you pumped up for a cattle show like a good Van Halen song or AC/DC. Whenever I hear someone’s stereo blasting any good classic rock song I will slowly gravitate toward their stall. Here’s a pic of my dream stereo system to have at a cattle show:
It’s sad to say, but I listen to the local (York, PA…) classic rock station more than I do the country station. Our country station just has way too many commercial breaks, and they overplay all the new cookie cutter stuff that is way too common. I am also a classic country fan – Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton… you get it. I could listen to Johnny Cash all day. When I visited the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, it reminded me once again of why I love old time country music. It can’t be beat by any of the new stuff, no matter what you say. When I was in Nashville I had already made up my mind that I wanted to live there one day. I loved the town, and adding in the fact that the town was classic honky-tonk down to the roots, I had to be there.
But for now, I’ll keep rocking out here in little ol’ Maryland.
Your Marylander 70s child,
Taylor
