I am rock. I rock harder than anyone I know. I am klnown for my rock. I will rock you. I will rock out to undefined and never before attained heights of self rock.
I am rock n roll. I love the blues and the swing and the jazz and the ROLL so I am rock n roll.
I am punk rock in the gay faux beatnik way as aell as in the doc marten in yr face way and in the fuck you fuck you way and I am also hardcore in the noise way for I so love the rock that I gave my only begotten son for sacrifice so we could all rock carefree.

I say no more

I'd say I'm a rock person cause rock 'n' roll sounds more like elvis or something.

Rock Over London,
Rock On Chicago.
Timex takes a licking but keeps on ticking.

Rock or Rock'n'Roll? I'm more soft rock/new wave.

Rock 'n' roll was for my grandparents.

Rock was for my parents.

This is what I get:

i think of just about anything that isn't pop or hip-hop, reggae, etc., as rock. i agree with the fact that when i hear the words "rockn'roll" i think of the old "she loves you" era beatles and elvis, but i think at the root of it sonic youth is a rockn'roll band as well. maybe not the 'n'roll part, but rock none the less. anything with heavy guitars can qualify for me. i could care less about all the subgenres. grunge is rock. most indie is rock, except the whiny stuff (is that what this "emo" i keep hearing about is? i haven't a clue)

if i had to qualify who i am as either rockn'roll or rock, my subgenre would be the "i fucking rock" subgenre.

To answer the question.........I am neither rock and roll, nor rock....
I think I have a much higher self opinion of myself than to label myself as a 'rock' person, or a 'rock and roll' person.
I am an amazingly awesome person.......and that's all I can really say.

Savage Clone 02.24.2007 09:57 PM

Diesel is more "rock an' yaar."

noumenal 02.24.2007 10:15 PM

sorry dude

it's not real though, I don't think

when I first joined the old board I got in trouble with that pic

I never realized how a litle pic of fake shit could offend so much

ZEROpumpkins 02.24.2007 10:22 PM

Kinda of an odd question. I kinda see what you are saying.

terminal pharmacy 02.25.2007 12:18 AM

roll - especially with poppy seeds and mustard

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 02.25.2007 01:39 PM

I think I'm more Rock and Roll.

Rock just makes me think of really lame music. When someone says they listen to rock I immediately start to think they are lame. If someone says "I love Rock and Roll" you atleast know they have some passion.

On that note, I've wanted to make a genre name that encompasses the word roll but not rock.

"What kind of music do you play?"
"I play noise roll"

Come on, isn't that awesome?

GeneticKiss 02.25.2007 10:31 PM

I am not afraid to say I am ROCK.........as a term, "rock 'n' roll" just sounds like old people trying to be hip.

max 02.25.2007 10:39 PM

i am a person.

Yeah, and Myspace doesn't even have "rock 'n' roll" as a genre, just plain old "rock". How are we meant to deal with these things? Just proves how ROCK Myspace really is and how rock 'n' roll it really isn't.

*logs into myspace*

demonrail666 02.26.2007 12:25 AM

If Myspace was a musical genre it'd probably be Emo, judging from all the 'look-at-me-i'm-significant-but-marginalised' sites on it.

Norma J 02.26.2007 12:30 AM

Screw the poppy emo! Poppy's meant for smokin'...
