Question
Hi Ross -

I'm an old geezer (won't tell you how old).  Just wondering if you can toss me the names (10 or so) of other bands that might be called 'ass-shaking hard rock.'  They can span the mid-70s up to the present day (for example, I'm familiar with Buckcherry).  

Thanks - Mark

Answer
Mark,

Aerosmith did influence Buckcherry. Also, Kid Rock, Guns N' Roses, Pink, Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots, The Black Crowes, Tesla, Billy Squier, Bon Jovi, and Eminem have all been influenced by Aerosmith. There are probably many more but these are the ten that come to my mind.

Thanks,

Ross
