what do you guys think a cool triple bill tour would be?

I would say Styx, King Crimson, ELP

or a cool double would be Styx and Rush

For Me Styx The Hooters and Tiny Tim

Styx has already been opener for Rush in 1976 and Tommy opened for them in 87 on the Hold Your Fire tour.

yeah, but this would be a real co-headline thing.

Its not even The Real Styx is a cover band

I never said they needed them. It would be great. Two amazing live bands in one night.
It is Styx. Get over it. I bet you're some little fat guy with circle glasses that sits on his computer all day hating on things he doesn't have a clue about. If you met your hated Jy in person you wouldn't be able to say one thing to him you'd be so nervous.

Not saying I wouldn't be first in line for that ticket, but I'd also be sad that we wouldn't get three hours of Rush, if you got an hour and half from each that's only half the time they played this last tour, that's a lot of music to cut out. But we would get a longer Styx set if they weren't on a triple bill.. tough call, not that anyone would ever have to make it.

^Instant sollution: new Woodstock!

Just an all day experience of bands like Styx, Rush, and other bands of the like playing for hours each!


Nah, that probably wouldn't work in this day and age.

Styx can open for Triumph.

1 amazing band and spinal tap
I met JY many times big deal

No thanks
I have waited to long for Triumph don't want ot ruined
Styx is now a leach band
Who ever they can leach off of they are right there to do it

So froy, are Styx leaching of Reo and .38 Special, or those to leaching off of Styx?

Or is it just one big symbiotic mechanism where they are leaching off of eachother?

Hmmm I think overall the Rush fans would not like Styx, thats just a general comment, granted there are fans of both out there. I have seen Rush many times and Its hard to put your finger on it, but the crowds are different.

Damn Yankees - 90 min
Styx - 75 min
Night Ranger - 60 min


Styx - 90 min.
Night Ranger - 75 min.
Shaw Blades - 45 min

Rush - 120 min
Styx - 60 min

Foo Fighters - 120 min
Styx - 60 min

Bon Jovi - 120 min
Styx - 60 min
Glen Burtnik - 20 min

Styx - 90 min with Styx/DDY/GB medley at end of show
Dennis De Young 60 min
Glen Burtnik 20 min

April Wine
Loverboy
Triumph
DDY - They love him in Canada
Nickleback

That would be a GREAT festival show!!

You haven't seen April Wine or Loverboy live recently have you?? Snoozefest!

Even Nickelback has started to become stale live (they sure where when I saw them in 07, in their home province!)

I'm still awaiting the Triumph reunion.. looks like it won't happen afterall..

Tell us the truth.. are YOU the little fat guy with round glasses? A portly Harry Potter fan? It's ok...

yeah. I am actually. I do believe that question was for Froy though. He has also not answered, because he probably is.

Having actually seen photos of Froy myself, it is YOU who would be in for the surprise. He doesn't fit the stereotype, but I'll let him choose to prove or disprove that for himself. But do be careful if he challenges you to a picture posting contest.

I think that's a great idea. Let's see you guys duke it out with your photo's. We'll all vote on who's the nerdiest.
I think Mr JY Roboto and Nightbull should join in on this too.
It'll be like a Star Trek convention...

Or, we can just have Zan post more pics of herself, maybe a past Halloween costume? Maybe a French maid kind of thing?
alright...I know I'm crossing a line here. I apologize ladies...
