Windham & Steve weigh the moments that launched rock into the mainstream, from Elvis and the Beatles on TV to Woodstock, Michael Jackson’s moonwalk, and the rise of digital streaming. Then we stress-test rock mythology with the “couch test,” deciding which bands would make good house guests.

• Elvis and the Beatles making TV a rock megaphone
• Woodstock as the festival blueprint and its lasting imprint
• MJ’s Motown 25 moonwalk and live spectacle escalation
• Digital music’s access vs ritual tradeoffs
• Bad Company tribute highlights and cover craft
• New supergroup buzz featuring Rucker, Mills, and more
• The couch test for bands: chaos vs courtesy
• From Motley Crue to Hootie: who gets a yes
• KISS side-roads, nostalgia, and pinball lore
• Tease: building the perfect album side of 2011

One idea. Six songs. Infinite possibilities...
