      Truly a golden era and we were grateful for those that respected pure musicianship. These types of bands gave me such a wonderful childhood. To see them nail it playing live was just the greatest feelings in the world. I’ve seen over 100 concerts from Blue Oyster Cult- Ozzy/Randy Rhodes- Megadeth-YES- STone Temple Pilots- Molly Hatchet- Fleetwood Mac- Iron Maiden - R.J. Dio - Rossington Collins- America- SoundGarden- Def Leppard- Tool- Joan Jett-Alice Cooper- J Geiles- ZZ Top- Foreigner- Judas Priest- Bad Company- Foghat and I could keep good g on and on. I haven’t seen a concert in 3 years but I’m m going to a 3 day rock festival in November. That may seem like a long way off but it’s fine with me as long as they don’t cancel. I really wanted to see Metallica which I finally will but the main band I’m going for is Lamb of God. The Lynyrd Skynyrd band will be on the bill. I’m not too big on a Skynyrd band that doesn’t have Ronnie and Allen but I just want to see Gary cause I don’t think he’ll be around too much longer. I’ve never seen Styx but I’ve always loved them! What a killer band especially in their prime! Thank you God for Rock and Metal 🇺🇸👍🏻🇺🇸❤️

    Styx, in my opinion, has got to be one of the best rock bands of all time. Remember, that is "my" opinion. I was a teenager when they came on the scene. I liked their music secretly because I was a new Christian. Therefore any music like this was evil. That was my opinion then. Styx sang about real issues that effect the lives of real people. There are few bands today who tell it like it is.

    Styx was my first concert... I was about 12 years old. My Dad & stepmom took me, my brother (who was 11), & my sister (who was 5). We stayed in the same hotel as the guys, and got to meet Dennis & JY... I had a huge crush on Tommy back then (I'm 25 now), and was highly disappointed I didn't get to meet him, too. Nice guys.
    And I have to say, although Dennis wasn't Styx, he was such a HUGE part of it that Styx just isnt the same for me anymore. I still listen to older Styx opposed to newer styx.

    I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Shaw, Lawrence on keyboards and the other guys a few moths back. My old friends brother once was a guitarist but had a stroke from alcoholism. They were the kindest souls, taking my friends hand, talking to him. We had backstage passes but they came out and spent about an hour with our group of 6 people. Thank you STYX and TOMMY.

    I'm an old guy too. You just have to admire the brilliance in their work. Love them just like I love Mozart. Genius is genius and it's wonderful to find it in all aspects of music, art, design, speech, teaching, research, writing, and hundreds of amazing things inspired and gifted people do. (All people are gifted and inspired ... it's great to see their gifts discovered and nurtured.) Gotta love You Tube for making them available to us as well.

    When I was twenty this piece entered my mind and swirled around like an unworldly calliope. The twelve string sweetly serenades with meditative strumming. Good vocals harmonize and the slippery-slide synth teases and enchants over rolling drums. Anthem-like singing leads to the energetic ending, with the keyboards doing aural gymnastics. Kind of warbling-like.
