Speaking of 80s songs, when did they start appearing on "Classic" rock stations anyway? I seem to recall that in the Detroit area it was around '99/2000 that I first started hearing them. I may be off.

I've always heard some of the 80's stuff on classic rock stations which I started listening to more in the mid 90s when I got tired of grunge and wannabe punk(Green Day - puke) 24/7. Tom Petty, Rolling Stones, Ted Nugent, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Bruce Springsteen and Van Halen were common. "Fred Bear" was probably the most played song and that came out in 89.

I did feel old though when I heard Motley Crue, Metallica, Guns N Roses, and the Black Crowes(90s) on the classic rock stations.

It's fine by me.
