OMG?? What next? Styx & Orchestra

by **SuiteMadameBlue** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 7:26 am

Thanks for posting that, I actually forgot to check - LOL

I feel better now, thank you

I just thought it was deceiving to fans to post songs that they won't be playing, even though it was the venue. That's the same for all bands and musicians. That's all folks.

Suite was right. Again!

LOL, actually I think this was the very "First Time" that I've been right about anything. Remember my ramblings about the Packers? LOL :roll:

I think this helped them out

Thanks, Mark!

This was just the info given to me, so I'll make the change!

I would think you would want to check the songs you mention as being played by Styx. They haven't played Babe or Show Me the Way since 1999 and I would doubt they will play them again. Replacing them with Renegade and Snowblind may be a better choice. It will save you a lot of grief.

Yes that did

She could have left Lady and Come Sail Away. They still do those.

But it is better now regardless

by **bugsymalone** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 9:32 am

Ya done good, NH!!

Now, they just need to cut and paste that promo info, change the venue name, and use it again, and again, and again........(I need that infinity symbol

).

Not just with Styx, but wouldn't you think once the contracts are signed the management of any band would send the promo information directly to the venue/promoter to use for the website or ticket sales.

I'm telling you, there really isn't much common sense being used in this business - LOL I seriously think I've seen almost everything behind the stage, especially with the wheelings and dealings :shock:

by **styxfanNH** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 10:07 pm

You would think it would be SOP. But I have seen where any organization provides the information and it just ignored or people think that they know what is going on and they just don't.

The funnier part is that she changed the information based on my email and inthe whole scheme of things, who am I to tell them to change their website. I could have told them to put in anything and it looks like they would have put that.

That is funny!! If you knew that was going to happen, it would've been funny to put in different "Dennis" songs to just get me going - LOL But you're not that cruel, or are you? LOL

Your letter was very informative and you did sign "Styx Fan" under your name, so that had to mean something. LOL :shock:

Suite,

I guess the Styxfan in his screen name didn't give it away for ya then. :shock:

I'll just chalk it up to you barely having slept and then dragging yourself out of a warm bed to begin your hard grind of a day here.

Looks like Tommy isn't the only one in need of a solid nights rest. Have some cheese and warm milk and get back in bed.

Scott, LOL!! :lol:

I'm even too tired to change my post. I'm on a few hours of sleep (if any) and I have to get 3 kids ready for school. Since it's snowing, I have to pack all that extra stuff for them to take. You people living in the warmer climates wouldn't know - LOL

Yes, lack of sleep and yes I do feel like Tommy - LOL But I don't go to Starbucks to be energized :shock:

Oh, ack no breakfast cheese for me, ewwwww.

Suite? Tired???? That never happens...concert or no right?

Sounds like you had a great time. Good for you.

LOL, I'M SO TIRED!! My poor friends had to hear that on the drive home, you wouldn't know :wink:

Too bad the concert was far away from you. You would've had a great time. It was a very, very, very great concert. Our seats were so perfect and pretty close, I had such a great view from the aisle. When he came out in those jeans and t-shirt, :shock:

Anyway, kids are going on the bus soon and I'm going back to bed

Yes gonna be 60+ here this p.m. Great shorts and t-shirt running weather. Hey and Zan and Darren have a few latitude lines more on me. It's one of the problems we have to deal with down here. Like putting up christmas lights in the sunshine with a warm breeze hitting you. I am going to the mountains to Ski in two weeks if that makes you feel better, so i will see some snow albeit mostly manmade.

But I have to drive a whole TWO HOURS to get there! :wink:

That is almost as terrible as having to drive a whole 2 1/2 hours to get to Myrtle Beach. Ugh!

Oh well back to getting ready for my 8-3 Panthers this week. The misery never ends I tell ya.

Eh...warm weather...makes you soft. I actually prefer winter. Skiing...I'm sure that will make her feel better....right.

Hey that's normal commute time here in the Windy City. I should know. Took me 2 hours to get to work this morning. LOL

That is almost as terrible as having to drive a whole 2 1/2 hours to get to Myrtle Beach. Ugh!

I prefer the Outer Banks myself

Oh well back to getting ready for my 8-3 Panthers this week. The misery never ends I tell ya.

Growing up with snow, I learned to pack a really good snowball. I can always substitute a popcorn ball. Takes aim....

:lol:

We get the real deal here with the snow, hey and my husband prefers to put up Christmas lights when it's freezing raining outside - LOL I don't go skiing anymore, due to the fact I don't get the chair lifts - LOL, but we do have a little ski hill right in town, 2 minute drive.

But I have to drive a whole TWO HOURS to get there!

2 minutes here

That is almost as terrible as having to drive a whole 2 1/2 hours to get to Myrtle Beach. Ugh!

Okay, that I'm jealous of, you got me there.

Oh well back to getting ready for my 8-3 Panthers this week. The misery never ends I tell ya.

I will be on the Panthers bandwagon for the weekend too :shock:

Here's a picture of part of our backyard I just took a minute ago, I couldn't get the snowflakes coming down. See REAL snow!!

So this is nothing to you, with the snow - LOL

Just suppose to have 3 inches today, that's just the beginning. When we get dumped on, I'll take another picture. Maybe of the front of the house. I'm trying to get my husband to make the house like Christmas Vacation, but he's so afraid of the high electric bill and climbing on the 2nd roof - LOL

I did spray paint the snow green and gold last year, we have crazy Viking Fan neighbors who keep putting up all this Purple crap and Viking crap - LOL We even built our house green, with green shudders and a green roof - LOL Pretty soon we'll have the Green Bay Packers logo on the house - JUST KIDDING

Has anyone suggested therapy for you?

I love snow. Windchill factor...another matter...snow though...totally cool

You did see my purplish Christmas tree on the Styx board right? Complete with Vikings ornaments and my Vikings stocking near by. Menards sells an actual purple tree. I may have to invest for next year

by **SuiteMadameBlue** » Fri Dec 02, 2005 6:17 am

I just checked over there, that tree is BEAUTIFUL!! As for a total purple tree, um I think that person would need therapy - LOL

I used to have a Packer tree before I got married. The kids have their own Packer ornaments. That's about it now. My old upper flat was all Packer stuff, everything was Packers, come to think of it, it was almost creepy - LOL

As for therapy for me, I passed, thankyouverymuch
