Roaring guitars and thundering drums are music to Terry Longhway's ears.

An oh-so-cool and confident bass player backing a smooth-stepping singer is a sight Eugene Strobe wants to see.

To borrow a lick and lyric from the Rolling Stones, it's only rock 'n' roll, but they like it.

No, wait ... they love it. And now this raised-on-radio duo is itching to turn the next generation on to what they consider the best music ever made.

Welcome to Michigan's first Paul Green School of Rock Music, where a whole lot a shakin' will soon be going on inside the walls of an unassuming building on tranquil Walnut Street in downtown Rochester.

Paul Green's school comes to Rochester

ROCHESTER - It's been a long time since Rochester rock 'n' rolled, and following up on the lyrics of a Led Zeppelin tune, the city will get it back now that the Paul Green School of Rock Music is moving in.

The school is enrolling aspiring musicians ages 7-17, said chief music officer for the Rochester School of Rock Terry Longhway. The company's first Michigan location aims to be filled with young people capturing the forces of past rock 'n' roll gods akin to the Doors, Pink Floyd, Van Halen, the Beatles and Frank Zappa.

The classics of these music moguls will be used as the curriculum to teach students in the performance-based program guitar, drums, keyboard, bass and vocals.
