What would you say or do if Styx decided in an effort to move totally away from Dennis, they re-recorded their entire catalog with the current lineup and in the process, stopped producing the original recordings with Dennis on them?

Why do you come up with such useless drivel to talk about?

Questions like these are MEANT to start the same confrontations around here that you supposedly don't like.

Give me a break.

I'd say that would be one heck of an expensive venture on their part. And it would truly increase the value of those items in existance with Dennis on them. While it might gain them awareness, I think that would be a cost they wouldn't recoup in the long run.

Oh yeah - and asshole you who posts "Gowan Sucks" in an entirely new thread is designed to be some kind of deep philosophical discussion. Hippocritical fucktard.

My initial response would be "Repent! Repent!"

Then I'd say let 'em go ahead if they want to spend that kind of money. It really wouldn't matter because the songs would never be the same. Just look at "Lady" versus "Lady 95" both are good, but they are not the same. And really, while their more diehard fans, the "collectors," would more than likely purchase them, I doubt the average fan would. First, songs never sound the same live in concert as they do on the recordings, that's something we all know. And second, I'd imagine a lot of their average fans already have the majority of their music library, from any of the various "live" or "best of" cds that have been released over the last several years. So if 1) they're not going to sound the same and 2) you've already got them on one or more cds, why duplicate your cd library? At least that'd be my philosphy.

OK so I'm rambling today. Chalk it up to the pain meds.

I'm not the one who complains about people criticizing the current joke of a line-up.

And I thought the breaking news post was kinda funny.

Must be my twisted sense of humor.

I would say: These re-recordings would be listed in the comedy CD section, right?


Bugsy

You give people who like Dennis a bad name. Kinda wish you'd go back to the cesspool from which you came.

This is from Andrews review of Big Bang and I couldn't agree more!!!!

"Styx 2005 is stalwarts Shaw, Young and Sucherman, joined by Lawrence Gowan (who surely has earnt his stripes by now) and new boy Ricky Phillips (Bad English, The Babys, Coverdale/Page).
This is not the place for a debate over the line-up – everyone loves Dennis DeYoung, but this is the band as it is now and some would do well to accept that and get on with life"

AMEN!

I wish you would STFU and I find your Jesus picture offensive.

Well, it's all relative now isn't it.

You're whining and crying about my posts but could care less what someone thinks of your Jesus-mocking picture.

Go kill yourself.

You're right... because I *don't* care what anyone thinks of me or anything I say or do... I'm just of the opinion that nut-scrapes like yourself should not be allowed to ride roughshod over forums like you have been. And so... I will choose to stand up and call it like I see it.

Have a superwonderful day.

Whatever duuuude... there have been plenty of times I've refrained only to see you carrot styx nutjobs throw the first bomb.

I just don't let it go.

Apparently, you can't read either because Ash is far from a "Carrot Styx" fan. Of course, I realize that would take some observational skills on your part, which you clearly do not have; as you are nothing more than a barking lunatic.
