Classic rock through modern rock song suggestions


I'm putting together a playlist for my upcoming 17th annual "just the boys" weekend. It involves drinking, sitting by a lake, drinking, some boating and fishing, drinking, and maybe some cornhole. We will also be drinking.
Music makes everything better, IMO, and a good playlist is not to be taken lightly. I'd like recommendations for music that fits this criteria. Not too hard, not too soft. Something that plays in the background that you can jam along to and compliment the chill atmosphere, but never overwhelm it. I'd appreciate any recommendations.
