I usually listen to this channel only when Eddie Trunk is on.
(Monday's 6pm-10pm est)

I gave it a try tonight and may split time with this channel and Hair Nation when I am in the mood for this type of music. I like it.

4 of 5 stars

When I was younger, this is the channel I would be listening to 24/7/365. But now that I'm older, I don't listen to Hard Rock quite as much. It's nice to hear some of my favorite songs that I grew up listening to...

The chatter seems to be kept to a minimum. The music selection seems very good. Not too many songs that I've never heard. That's a plus in my book...

4 out of 5 Starts. I think I'll make this a preset!...

I read the channel description and thought to myself "self, why are you not listening to this channel?" So I did this morning, and I loved it. I too would have been listening to this 24/7/365 back in my youth, but not so much now. I am planning on moving this to a permanent pre-set where Liquid Metal after Mandatory Metallica is gone. Four stars

Started out strong following the AC/DC takeover. That lasted a couple of weeks, then the repetition set in. They play some B-side type cuts, but those are often repeated. Some bands that were played on Buzzsaw (often too much at times) rarely show up on Boneyard. It has gone from a high preset to one on the 2nd band in a short period. I check in every once in a while to see if things are improving. Like many other Sirius stations, the programming seems lazy.

I listened to this channel last night. When I was living in the 80s I loved hard rock. This was the stuff I remember listening too. I enjoyed hearing them again but I can't see myself doing a steady diet of this anymore. The cuts they play on ClassicRewind seem to be enough for me these days. While the station certainly does what it advertizes (I didn't listen long enough to qualify the repatition if any), and I do not dislike the channel, I do not like it enough to bump off one of my presets. I will give it 3 stars.

This channel filled in for Buzzsaw on my presets after the channel merger. It's heavier than Buzzsaw ever was... less Rewind stuff like Bob Seger and Pat Benatar. And this is the way I prefer it, I just miss some of the Buzzsaw DJ's and programming. I'll keep this one as a preset next to Hair Nation, when I want to rock!

 

[Jleimer]

This is my second favorite channel for listening to rare tracks from classic rock artists behind Deep Tracks and I like it , however they dont play the newer stuff from those artists like AC DC and others which makes them lose 2 stars for it 3 out of 5.

Great channel for those that love hard rock.

It's not always the case for me, but I do enjoy this channel.

4 stars!

Why are they playing "Patience" by Guns N' Roses on Boneyard?!?

It's a really good song, but definitely not a rockin' Boneyard song! :banghead:

I went camping last night and upon playing beanbag toss, this was the channel my non-satellite radio friends picked. They loved the channel! It was a good channel to tune into while playing this game.
