Cello rock is a genre of music characterized by the use of cellos and other stringed instruments such as violin and viola to create a sound, beat, and texture similar to that of familiar rock music, but distinctly reshaped by the unique timbres and more traditional genres of the cello (in particular) and other stringed instruments used. The cellos and other stringed instruments are often electronically amplified and/or electronically modified. They are often combined with other elements typical of rock music such as rock-style vocals and rock-style drumming.

Rock is a genre that has evolved tremendously in the 20th and 21st centuries. Originally created from blues and jazz from African Americans. Elvis adopted that and turned it into something more.
Rock had it's big contributation during the 60's and 70's leading up to 80's rock. During the 80's many bands had extreme success. Near the end of the 80's and in the 90's is commonly called "The End of Rock" where, people said Rock n' Roll had died and bands just weren't the same. But every generation has it's own music, and modern rockers say today's rock is still alive and well.
At the turn of the millenium, rock began evolving even more and had some commercial success, but was battling over success with rap and pop music. Around 2002 - 2007, punk and emo bands were highly popular among the rock loving teenagers, although then it was called pop, and was highly looked down upon among other types of rockers, it became more accepted among them as well when rap and pop took over. There are still rock bands having success today, such as Linkin Park, Nickelback, Coldplay, and Avril Lavigne.
Rock music has had a long and great history and it hasn't died, only evolved. Just like humanity, we never died, we simply evolved from apes. Rock music will never die and I will always listen to rock. Also everyone stop complaining that rap and pop sucks. It's not all about sex, drugs, bitches and money.
"I love rock music of all types."
"Rock music isn't dead, it's only different!"

One of Disney's worst movies ever for 5 specific reasons:
1. A overly predictable and cliched plot taking too much from High School Musical.
2. Cliched stereotypes like the blonde diva, the burnette outsider, and the cute but cocky pop star who is spoiled but changes.
3. No real rock music (there's is a universal form of Rock music that just guitar solos and how loud it is.) but bubblegum pop and lip-synching and worst of all, no instrument playing.
4. The great way to mask the realities of rock music (mostly sex and drugs, but that generic) to make sure their target audience are safe using the Jonas Brothers and unoriginal stars.
5. Disney has finally losing its originality and growing on greed and plot formulas from their past shows and movies.
If you want to see a real rock and roll movie see "Rock & Rule" or better yet "Almost Famous". Avoid it like the plague. Don't fall into the band wagon.

A collection of hits from various genres and bands from the 60s, 70s and 80s, generally played on classic rock stations. It is a distinctly American phenomenon (that is, other countries do not have classic rock stations per say) and generally features North American and British/Irish bands.
Pink Floyd's album, "Dark Side of the Moon," is part of the classic rock canon. Their earlier albums, such as "Meddle," are not.

A word abbreviated from Progressively Hard-as-a-Rock, which also is loosely translates to Progressive Rock. This genre of music, as well as bands dedicated to it, is known for its tendency to give listeners the most intense orgasms known to humankind. Musicians who play prog are thought to be Trans-dimensional Gods from another world, who have a zenith of skill higher than any other being in existence, whether it be of imagination or reality.
Some are examples of Prog Rock are as follows: Rush, the unearthly projective illusion of raw musical skill; Dream Theater, the offspring of Rush, whom are considered above all others in complexity; Pink Floyd, the acid trip you'll never forget, complete with the only side effects being longer and more intense orgasms; Porcupine Tree, the ominous shadow of pure musical pleasure. Please remember these four super-organism colonies are an obscenely minuscule fraction of the entire entity that is the Progressive Realm.

The term coined by the greatest band on earth, Tenacious D, as an exercise maneuver so exhilerating, it can increase your rock performance and stamina. The exercise is so complicated (has been known to cause minor spinal damage), it has yet to be performed in public by the band nor have the instructions been disclosed.
"Are you willing to make the commitment to deep-knee Rock Squats. Seven or Eight at a time...in a row!" -Jack Black, Tenacious D

Something so great it will blow your socks off.
Unbelievably, amazingly, indescribably not entirely unlike an orgasm but much cleaner and a lot less work involved.
Coined by William G Burns III in the book, "English Idioms, Sayings and Slang" by Wayne Magnuson.
