It was Dennis who delayed Tommy getting back into Styx, not the other way around.
Dennis had to finish his album and then he was willing to get Styx back together. Tommy lied (shock!) and told Styx he was going back with them and then a week before recording is supposed to start on what became Edge, let's them know that he has taken another gig elsewhere.
You are either A) of DeYoung decent, or B) completely full of shit, or C) all of the above.
No maam you are wrong...and definitely should choose answer B.
Read the Grand Delusion to get you out of your delusion..
Steve A. Jones - " There was a whole different deal where Tommy wanted to be in it, and he was quoted in the papers as saying it was about to happen. Meanwhile, I think he had represented it some other way to Dennis, and finally Dennis got aggravated and said, 'Well, we'll put the band together and Tommy can choose whether he wants to be in it or not.' I just know that they were talking with him and somehow he had not represented his true position, is a diplomatic way of putting it. He was still negotiating to be in the band when he COULDN'T be in the band. That he was just...I think "stringing them along" would be a little harsh, but that is what it sounded like to me." [shock - Tommy lies again!].
The members of Styx reached a tentative deal regarding the reunion and Dennis called Tommy in Los Angeles to tell him to get ready to come to CHicago to start pre-production on a new Styx record.
The call actually came on the first day of Damn Yankees's recording its debut album...
Sorry Toph, but you are WRONG. Look at the bolded line from your quote. You don't think DDY knew that? And Dennis not only said he needed to finish his new Album, he also need to tour and do promotional work for it. Strangely, on Damn Yankees first day of recording, which should have been during DDY's promotional schedule, all of a sudden Styx had to be back together. Oh and let's not forget that Tommy was the only one to refuse to allow DDY to have all credits and rights at that time. Believe what you will, I was around then and knew members in both camps pretty well.
Oh, sure...right! I'll believe some dude posting on an internet board vs. the author of a published book who spent hours and hours researching it and talking to the key players that were involved. But wait, you "were around then and knew members in both camps pretty well." Thanks for straightening me out there, bud.[/quote/.
Hey Topher.
You are exactly what I'm lookin for.
I wrote a book about how to make your first MILL.
It is called 'How to make your first MILLL.'.
What you do is the next time you go to a motel ,you pick up the bible which will be somewhere in your room,if it has not been stolen.
If that is the case you ask for another room because the icemachine is making to much noise,and hopefully there wil be one in there.
Now this is where it gets interesting.
You take the first 2 letters in said book and invest in the first stock option starting with those said letters,in the company you first come across.
Is this clear?
Then a month later you invest in the next 2 letters in said book.
Easy?
Sure it is.
Now the bible was written by somebody I forget who,,,.
But it was written so it must be true.....
My book was written and it took a long time so it must be true.
I am willing to share my wealth,but you must buy my book.
39;99 and you will be wealthy.
No money back guarantee.
Talking about tees.
I almost had a hole in one.
But that was a week ago,,,,,,,,,
zzzzzzzz
