For me the "garage" has always referred to a
DIY approach.  So, really, any type of music
can have a "garage" style, and when you think
about it almost all bands start as "garage"
bands. 

I add:
That's what I always thought: that a garage band would have a rough DIY 
sound. But it looks like if it sounds too sweet it's not garage band 
anymore.

The VH1 special (or was it MTV? -- whatever!) started referencing the 
Beatles, Ramones, anyone and everyone; that's why I said it was confusing. 
But yes, if you look at it like it's anything that Little Steve says is 
garage, then than makes it clear. The main point seemed to be guys (or 
girls) with guitars and maybe a farfisa organ.

But the real important question is whether ga-RAGE becomes GA-rage in the 
U.K.  Doesn't sound so tough that way!
