"classic rock" fic?
Anyone know a good place to go for classic-rock-related fic?  Especially one with rare pairings of the slashy variety?

(Surely someone out there has written Genesis slash.  I mean, besides the few people in the single moribund community on LJ.  I'm desperate.  Hell, I'd read Phil Collins/Ray Wilson slash at this point. D:)

Try Rockfic. I recently came across classicrockcock and basically remembered it because of its awesome name. :) And there might be something for you at Fanworks Finder, though I'm not sure and haven't checked.

I was going to pimp both of the above as well - classicrockcock is tons of fun and we are always looking for more new writers and readers. Oddball stuff definitely encouraged. Same with RockFic - I've been pimping hard to get more classicrock fic writers to join up there. Admittedly there's not a LOT yet but classic rock categories are available and readers are waiting for new fic :)

Now you make me want to write that Yes fic after all.

(The research would take me back to junior high though, and I have to ask myself if that's really worth it... Hmmm...)

try xmas_rocks on LJ too - it's a band fic secret santa. There's everything from Beatles to Velvet Underground to Bowie to modern stuff.

There was someone who used to post some awesome Pink Floyd and Who stuff at rareslash on LJ. I'm blanking out on his name right now, plus I'm on my way to work, but if you far enough back in the archives you should find it. (If you haven't seen it and can't find it let me know and I'll look myself.)

And there's some stuff at Yuletide: www.yuletidetreasure.org but I'm not sure how much or for what bands.

(Genesis... I'd read that...)

was it the ratman? His stuff was awesome, but I think most of it got locked down at some point :( He also used to have stuff at RockFic but deleted it from there for some reason. Woe.

There's not much at yuletide as I recall (unless there was more posted this year; I haven't checked). But the Rolling Stones story there last year was AWESOME.

Glad I'm not the only one!

Uhm, IDk what your fandoms are but can I pimp my own LJ comms- glam_lolz and glamfic- there's some stuff in both though glam_lolz really only has crack. Then we have whipitonmejim which is Velvet Underground lolz and fic.

sidewinder on here has some classic rock related comms, and I also second the xmas_rocks recs.

Well, I started working on my own fic out of pure frustration, so you'll probably see it before next X-mas. :3

Ha, well, join! We seriously need members. Most VU fans just steal our icons and then go off to other websites saying we´re terrible and John Cale hates us. WHICH IS TRUE, but we already knew that and it´s not a very productive attitude.

Also, may I give you a hint and say I will love you forever if you write Phil Collins/Adam Ant?

Oh yes, exactly! I could write Adam Ant but not Phil Collins :(

If you wrote the Adam Ant, I could probably write the Phil Collins! Unfortunately, I know very little about Mr. Ant. XD

(I can't say I've ever paired Phil with anyone, but I'm in a "what the hell" kind of mood. Hahaha!)

Hahaha, awesome! I'm good with writing Adam Ant, wrote him paired with Snape once, it turned out well. Seeing as you joined g_l, I'll friend you and we'll have to sort something out (omfg pairing collaboration of doom!)!

oh man if only I could find someone to write Ringo Starr/Marc Bolan with my life would be complete!

I still desperately need to write Adam Ant/Stewart Copeland after this hideous hot mess of a video. Seriously, I mean, pirates and bondage and dinosaurs, oh my!

Also glam_lolz is major crack. Why is glam so cracky? (In the best possible way, mind you?)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THAT VIDEO OMG

That is fucking sensational. I have to show that to my friend. He will die of an aneurysm caused by AWESOME when he sees that.

oh lord, can't open that video here at work, but I already love it. It's the logical next step after Summers/Ayers.

LOLOLOL glam is the crackiest music genre. I think it's because it's a parody genre anyway, so it's lolz by definition. Then they're all delusional and can't dress themselves, and all shag each other and then go straight and deny it and fight, so on the whole it's pretty much the definition of crack before we even get to it.

Because we make fun of him, and also call him gay.

Sadly not. I completely support Roxy Music orgy fic though. IDK, once I get five minutes of spare time I'll go and see if I can write some. I am stuck on Eno poking Cale with a stick, anyway.

Oh jeez *waves* here I was responding to this thread and not realizing it was you (of course!:D) So of course I've pimped nothing you probably haven't already heard about from me on lj.

Isn't [info]kittenmommy a Genesis fan? She may know of some things.

Yes, I'm a Genesis fan. But Genesis slash breaks my brain and makes me cry.

I've GAFFed a couple of the fics on the Genesis LJ, much to the displeasure of the loon person who runs the place. In fact, she even dedicated a badfic to me. Blarrrgh.

That's OK. I'm kind of getting used to it. The cough syrup and alcohol helps.

PS. I really can't complain about RPF, because I haven't a leg to stand on. If you've ever wondered what Doctor Who would be like if it were combined with Genesis, wonder no more.

I have no excuse regrets.

I briefly worked on a final installment that would've taken place after Last of The Time Lords, but my muse abandoned me. Perhaps some day I will finish it!

I'll suggest Accused of Love, a Tom Petty/Bob Dylan comm, but I'm not sure if that's the kind of classic rock you're looking for.
