"Classic"?

My son is going to be 9 in November, which doesn't exactly trigger my feelings of youth. I am only 32 but I had a disturbing experience recently flipping on the local classic rock station only to hear songs from when I was in high school. Since when is Guns N' Roses' "Paradise City" classic rock? I would question categorizing anything by Queensryche, Skid Row or Whitesnake as classic. The Beatles are on the oldies station now. That used to be what I considered as classic. It is only a matter of time before we'll hear "Whole Lotta Love" in the dentist's waiting room. We're getting dangerously close to needing a new category. Perhaps "primitive rock" or "antediluvian hits"?
