no worries Paul. you're just old. i bet most kids looking at this list are thinking who the eff is Urge Overkill? Hinder is god awful terrible but have sold millions of records (think Nickelback). Buckcherry are ok though, in a classic era Aerosmith kinda way. regardless, the rock stage has had the worst lineups of any stage for years now. doesn't appear that anything has changed.

Well, I guess I'm officially out of touch. Or I don't know what current rock & roll consists of. The only band I've heard of amongst all these headliners is Urge Overkill.

One year ago and five years ago look exactly the same in my head, so trying to pick out highlights specific to this past year is just a little daunting. Nevertheless, it`s been a heck of a year, and I`ve come up with a pretty solid list of my personal favorite things of 2011.
