It seems like "Styx" is now officially 2 guys, one of whom (Tommy Shaw) isn't even an original member. How does that constitute a "band"?
Styx is now, as always, FIVE guys, or six, if you decide that Chuck is still with the band (as he is). And they are the most entertaining act I've ever seen. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken the time or trouble to see them ten times on this tour.
I listened to Styx in juinor high like everyone else of my generation, but the idea of a show with a bunch of hired nobodies playing the parts of the band members just doesn't interest me at all.....Tommy Shaw should stick with Damn Yankees and end this joke of a band.
"hired nobodies" - Is that how you choose to refer to such people as Todd Sucherman, Glen Burtnik, and Lawrence Gowan?? I only wish I could be such a "nobody". And furthermore, I wish I could be as entertaining as I have found this group to be. Andrew, is that how you feel about these people?? If so, I'm very disappointed. You've been very supportive of these talented men in the past.
What happened?
