September began with a blast from the past when Styx played the Nebraska State Fair in Lincoln. There were mullets and cutoffs galore at this Labor Day concert. Styx played all of its old favorites like "Renegade" and "Come Sail Away." The band also played some newer songs off its most recent albums. What wasn't played, however, was "Mr. Roboto," the classic, almost joke-driven hit that made people all over the world dance the robot without shame. For a bunch of old dudes, these guys really put on a fun show.

I wouldn't mind seeing Glen's show, that sounds like a great time with great music.

It would've been nice to see Damn Yankees!!

If you ever get a chance to see the Xmas shows, GO! I regret not being closer or independently wealthy, which would allow me to attend every year. They are a whole lot of fun, and for a GREAT cause!

Every review that I've read about his Christmas shows have been GREAT!!

Zan, do you know if he'll be touring at all or doing any shows in the Midwest? I see that he'll be in GA and PA. I wish he'd come to Milwaukee or Chicago. I'd love to see him and Rik Emmett together at the same show. 8)

I went to Glen's show 2 years ago. It was a blast.

UNfortunately funds and a friday only night make it more difficult to get to. But I agree, if you have a way, its a fun show.
