CHICAGO (AP) - With the conclusion of the Def Leppard/Foreigner/Styx tonight, Styx guitarist James "JY" Young sat backstage with reporters and fans. While some of the band members were relaxing on couches, JY started haranguing the road crew about getting things packed up...for their next tour!

"Let's go guys! We got 30 minutes to sit on our keisters before we gotta drive to LA to open up for Winger." JY bellowed. Fellow guitarist Tommy Shaw reluctantly said goodbye to six blonde (and aging) groupies and boarded the bus for the trip to LA, while alleged singer Larry Gowan was busy tossing telephone poles in between quaffing pints of Guinness, then had to be forced onto the bus by three roadies.

Bassist Chuck Panozzo shambled over to the bus, but stopped by to mention "Oh by the way...I'm gay" before skipping up the bus stairs. Drummer Todd Sucherman was seen shaking his head repeatedly while being the last to board the tour bus.

We got 30 minutes to sit on our keisters before we gotta drive to LA to open up for Winger

I thought it was Willy Nelson

Btw.. you forgot to mention Ricky .. lol


AND Chuck didn't play on the last few dates of this tour, he had previous commitments in California.

So There

THIRTY minutes!!?? OH, no, no NO!! That will never do!!
They will lose all the momentum they have built up!!

Bugsy

Good stuff! thanks for the laugh! I love this band and can't see them enough, but I even have to admit maybe its time for them to take some time off . Let the guys do some other projects.

Is the show they are opening for Winger at Baloonfest ?

You forgot to add that the original keyboardist was doing a free show at the Bronco Inn in Omaha.
