I wish you all would drop Metallica, Def Leopard, Black Crowes. & Night Ranger. You all talk about ‘rusty’ METALLICA like they are the best group ever!!! B! S!!!!!!!

‘Rusty’METALLICA doesn’t hold a candle to KISS, CHEAP TRICK, TED NUGENT, VAN HALEN w/ DIAMOND DAVE,

I will more metallica in a time span than KISS, CHEAP TRICK, TED NUGENT, or VAN HALEN. There is a change that is NEEDED TO BE MADE!! PLEASE MAKE IT

I love hard rock and I am an AC/DC and Metallica fan, but you hear them a million times a day on terrestrial radio. They need to play them less and what is their obsession with Rush? There are so many great bands out there and tunes. Why do they limit it to the same ten or twelve bands. Satellite radio is supposed to offer an alternative to regular radio and since the Boneyard has returned it basically sounds like a terrestrial radio station with its insane repetition and same few artists. The only time it is enjoyable is when Eddie Trunk is on simply because he has great guests and plays a variety of bands.

I have always had sirius and then I bought my truck which came with xm. I kept my sirius and paid for xm for my truck. It sucked. I actually went and had one of those little radios wired into my truck and have both. XM still sucks. Then XM and sirius merged and xm took over some of the best stations. Buzzsaw was my favorite. The 70s and 80s on sirius was better and xm took over. XM was a bad investment for sirius!

‘Love in an elevator’!!?!…..really!!…come on Boneyard please!
Where is Saxon, Diamond Head, Slayer (liquid metal you can’t understand 98% of the time), Accept, Testament, Raven, Metal Church, Iced Earth, Danzig….i could go on. Boneyard has been disapointing….i will write this Zelner guy to see about playing something truely “hard and heavy”!

If anyone is interested is expressing his/her likes or dislikes about Boneyard here is the email address for Jon Zellner Senior Vice President Music Programming Sirius XM Radio, Jon.Zelner@xmradio.com.

Here is a sample of my email to Mr Zelner:
“April Wine’s “Just Between You and Me” is a song that has absolutely no business being played on a station that claims to play the best hard and heavy classic rock. Take a listen to this song and you tell me if it should be played on Boneyard. Also, I tuned in several times in the evening this week and heard Def Leppard’s “Pour Some Sugar on Me” being played. Now I don’t know how much you know about the classic hard rock genre but these songs are just examples of music that does not, by any stretch of the imagination, fit into the classic hard and heavy category.”

Mr Zellner’s response : “Thanks for the e-mail. Bill. April Wine has actually been in the Boneyard library for many years…might be too poppy. I agree with Def Leppard as well. Will continue to look at it and evolve the channel over time.”

I encourage anyone that is interested in the music Boneyard plays to email feedback to Jon Zellner.

You’re forgetting about Aerosmith. The few times I turned on the Boneyard today I heard yet another Aerosmith tune! I like Aerosmith but there are many other bands to be playing! Ted Nugent again and again too!
Is it a format they follow or do they not have any idea how to mix artists?
What the hell is David Lee Roth (solo career) doing on the Boneyard?

Not sure what station you were listening to but Buzzsaw played a lot of deep tracks from Classic Hard and Heavy artist’s. Boneyard has played the same Dio song all week, “Rock and Roll Children”, which isn’t one of his best songs in my opinion. Any by the way for the record, “Lady Evil” is Black Sabbath. The biggest problem I have with Boneyard is that they claim to be classic hard and heavy rock and the artist’s that are played most often do not represent that genre of music. For example I hear more Cheap Trick, David Lee Roth, Dokken, Def Leppard, Blue Oyster Cult, Van Haggar, and Whitesnake. None of which I consider classic, hard or heavy.
