Bono, I can understand not liking but the music is awesome.

I'm not kidding, many students at my high school didn't like them.
All hair metal.

I'd replace that with emo music, although emo music is not classic. :P
Before you judge "emo"(I do hate that term), try Rites of Spring, Circle Takes the Square and anything from Thursday before their most recent albums. Thats the good stuff.

I was debating asking why you disliked Motley Crue, but then I figured yeah I can see why some wouldnt like them due to Vince's voice. I am not one of those people though.

all Thursday albums are good in my opinion common existence gets real good towards the end

People can say that about any genre. The thing about emo music is that emo is a conception, not a genre. Really, any genre could be emo, but it just happens that a lot of alternative rock/ pop/ "the stuff that killed rock n' roll" is emo in conception.

Well, I just don't like how they complain on how much they hate their lives and hear about cutting themselves, though. Although, some punk is okay.

Emotional and emotional hardcore punk are two different things though. Xasthur is emotional, though he plays black metal and is thus emotional black metal, however the testosterone filled metal community replaced that with depressive black metal, even though it's actually emo (and I LIKE Xasthur btw.)
That being said I'm fine with emo music, but I do not like hardcore punk.

"Emo" is short for "emotional hardcore", and originated from hardcore punk; good sir. Metal can not be emo.

Drone music developed from doom metal, but there are many people (both metal and non metal) who don't consider drone music metal at all. And who's to say the emotional concept can't be adapted from hardcore to metal?
And if you will only settle with emo being a sub of hardcore, then I'm sure anyone who dislikes hardcore would respectfully dislike hardcore with a different emotional concept.

Emo is not just an emotional twist on another genre; it is a unique styIe of its own. Of course many people who don't like hardcore won't like emo; very few people enjoy poutine but not french fries. Poutine is a food that rooted from french fries, but is still unique.
I don't think either of those are considered classic rock...but, whatever. Anyway, while I love classic rock, I can't stand Van Halen. Eddie is a great guitarist, just can't get into the songs anymore.

I've just never really heard of them considered classic rock artists. Though, I'm really not sure what constitutes a CR band in the first place.

I've never really understood the yearly constraints on classic rock. Some of the defining albums for the "genre" were released in the 80's, though most see it as the period from the 60's to '79.

I can't keep up. I'd never pick U2 nor Motley Crue as cIassic.:?

Yes, I also consider hair/glam metal bands to be classic, and they sound "classic" to me. Stuff like Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Poison, Motley Crue, etc.
