Shout outs to Oregon for Thin Lizzy. God they are SO good it is unbelievable.

(though, Rush are my favorite band, and them being on this is much less surprising than Thin Lizzy. Though I probably wouldn't have guessed Utah for them.)

(I also live in North Carolina. idk if Doobie Brothers would've been my first guess but they'd be like a top 3 one.)

Can't believe Utah has it right for once, but it also kinda makes sense.

Also was not expecting Beatles for Nevada. Must've talked to a lot of Vegas hipsters.

No way they were options as Washington would be completely different.

In the 90s 70s popular rock bands were definitely considered classic rock

Scorpions have a song called Arizona. I imagine that skyrocketed its popularity.

Or now that I think about it, you might be right and research was erroneously done to include scorpions of other meanings

Its weird because some of these bands were already classic rock when I was a young kid (born in 76) and yet others like GNR and Metallica are from my youth and it weirds me out seeing them as classic rock even though yes Im aware that was a long time ago now. Its still such a weird thing to wrap my brain around.

Also Im shocked The Eagles wouldnt be plastered on here. They are one of the most successful and iconic bands ever and absolutely at the top of nearly every classic rock list.

I would actually say Creedence for Louisiana and The Grateful Dead for Colorado. Fleetwood Mac is definitely very accurate, though.

Also, as a Missourian I'm sad to say that if Van Halen is accurate, it's for the Hagar era. Missouri fucking loves Sammy Hagar.

Unless there's a source explicitly cited in the image, I just assume that all of these maps are made up.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I mean, this is a list that has for example CCR, Ramones, Rush, Chicago, and Metallica. None of which sound remotely like the others

Nirvana would not be some outlier sound-wise

Scorpions, eh? I can see it. They get played quite a bit out here. Just about every place of business I've ever walked into here either has Rock You Like a Hurricane, Still Loving You, No One Like You, or all three in their background music playlist.

Also WTF at Washington and Florida actually having good taste. Mad props to Oregon for the lone Thin Lizzy representation, likewise for Hawaii with Santana. Ironic that California's favorite is a band that originated in New York.

Also LOL @ Rhode Island holding it down as the lone Black Sabbath rep. Rock on you tiny state ass havin' MFs.

Yeah, I'm calling bullshit on "Guns 'n Roses" getting more search hits in Kansas than "Kansas" which is also the name of a reasonably well-known classic rock band from the state. If Pennsylvania and New Jersey get "the Eagles" because of the NFL team, then Kansas should get its namesake band.

Jersey got Bon Jovi, who is second only to Frank Sinatra in our music pantheon.
