Music Magazine Name

Music Magazine Title
Bellow are 3 names I had come up with for my Music magazine, i then asked Friends and Peers to vote on which name sounded best and most appropriate for the Genre of Classic Rock the three names i had developed were:

"The Flyer-V"
"Rock On"
"Sticks and Stones"

the main reasons behind the name "The Flyer-V" was to make the connection of classic rock via the play on words "Flying V" which is a type of guitar, i am hoping that this name will help the reader instantly make the connection between the magazine and classic rock without actually seeing the house style.
the main reasons behind the magazine name "Rock On" is to try and make an instant connection with classic rock, this is most likly the most releavant title for masthead, but with this in mind i believe it is not the best name for my magazine.

the main reason behind the name "Sticks and Stones" is a play on words Drum sticks and Rolling Stones, this is would make the connection between classic rock using the association of the rolling stones and drum sticks. 

Vote Results
1) "The Flyer-V"           -6
2) "Rock On"                -1
3) "Sticks and Stones"   -8

after finding that "Sticks and Stones" was the most popular it was suggested that i drop the "and" and replace it with a plus sign, also while gathering feedback I discovered that all but one person felt that name 2: "Rock On" was appropriate to the genre but was too cheesy. the main reason behind "The Flyer-V" not being the most popular is because it made my magazine seem to much like a flyer and gave the wrong impression of the magazine.
