I hope they all know that Vince neil is sitting in for dennis on his vocals

No Vince Neil.He is going on a world tour with the (reunited) Motleys.
Excellent double bill though.

I just ordered my tickets yesterday for Motley Crue with a VH1 Pre-order. I never seen Motley Crue in concert, I'm actually looking forward to seeing them in March. I have to practice my headbanging - LOL

Just listen to Gowan sing he sounds just like Vince Neil
Maybe Vince will try IATW also they can see who sounds the worst.

You might have something there, but I think Gowan sounds more like Freddy Mercury than Vince Neil.

Nope. You both got it wrong. Gowan's true inspiration for the way he sings is found in the "Wizard of Oz." Scene 58: The Munchkins sing.

Freddie Mercury getting it up the shooter maybe
Gowan sings like he's screaming in pain
Yuck

Vince is so much more rock and roll than Lawrence, sounds better than him, and could kick his A$$.

You know, I was never much of a fan of Vince in terms of vocal prowess, but his voice is an absolutely perfect fit for the Motley Crue sound (kind of like Udo with Accept)!

Yes ek, Vince fits what Motley is. Very well said. Lawrence doesn't fit what I know Styx as, but maybe he fits to what Styx is becoming, or has already become.

Whens Dennis DeManilow gonna get of his ass and tour the UK ?....or does wifey not allow that as well ?

DarrenUK, now, now, be nice

Are you planning to see Styx?

Have a great weekend!!

Ime going to 4 of the 6 shows

I paid $1700 in your money to travel to Germany in 2000 to see them at Munich and Nuremburg

No way will i miss these shows.....i got my ticket for Manchester today and ime already 26 rows back....darn starved Brit fans could of waited until i got my ticket...

Darren,
You'll have a good time. It's a great show that highlights the harder side of Styx.

Dennis DeManilow,,,not too far off.
Anyways according to www.pollstar.com Styx got 5 shows in the UK.
ohhh Mandy ohh Tannenbaum.

Having read the posts above and on other sites I was really hoping that Kansas were going to tour the UK as support to Styx.

I already have my ticket for Glasgow Clyde Auditorium and although getting a chance to see Styx in my hometown (having previously seen them in the US) was something to really look forward to and Kansas as support would have been the icing on the cake.

Reading the Kansas official site they have just posted dates for the Kansas European Tour 2005 none of which tie in with Styx dates and indeed they have dates elsewhere. (Dates listed below)

...but, since you don't know the answer to the question he asked, I guess sarcasm will have to do.

you make the mistake of assuming I care about the answer to his question. making insults wrapped in questions deserves sarcasm.

More of a metaphor. He implies DDY is Manilow-esque with his "name" - and I make a similar comparison as to what I think of Mr. Lawrence. My attempt again at the passive agressive.
