Question 1 Whatever happened to Glen Burtnik or what is he up to now? I enjoyed his writing on Edge Of the Century, and his performance in Styx from 99-03 and later with DDY live.

Question 2 is why doesn't Styx perform Mr. Roboto more live in concert? Isn't that one of their bigger songs?

There are numerous threads on this Styx board about Glen and about your second question. Just scroll back through and you will find out plenty.

1. Glen is still touring with the road show Cats as RumTumTugger and he occasionally jumps with the " Flying Elvii" parachute group.

2. Since Toyota purchased the rights to Mr. Roboto back in 1984 they are unable to perform it live without permission.
