An active 2008 for Styx

Postby styxfanNH » Sun Nov 18, 2007 1:50 pm

This just in from a very reliable source. Styx will be touring with the Scorpions in early 2008. There will be 40 dates for this tour and the tour will be completed before May. I don't know what Styx role will be... opener or headliner or co-headliner.

Following the Scorpions dates there will be another 28 dates with Def Leppard in B markets.

Summer plans are still being firmed up, but that puts some 70+ dates prior to the end of June

That meshes up with what Todd said when I bumped into him at the San Diego airport.

That also leaves the Summer free for the supposed Scorpions/Judas Priest Co-Headlining tour of North America as well..

So if you won't see not one show does this mean you will not see not many?

Didn't get dates only the number of shows. My guess is we will see something official close to the first of the year.

Scorpions did quite well in Toronto,and they will be back.Then ,with Styx and there situation with Toronto,who knows if they will be here.
Scorpions would have to headline ,and with Styx as an under the radar pre-Scorps do, before Scorps do.
It would be great.
I would predict about 10000 for this one here.

I'm just waiting for one of those Spinal Tap-like moments to happen, namely when Stynx schedule two tours simultaneously without realizing it:

JY: "Whaddaya mean we gotta open for the Scorpions tonight in Boston? We're supposed to headline a quintuple bill of Guess Who/Poco/BTO/Starz/Styx in some kid's backyard tonight!!"

Hmmm I guess that would make them an even harder working band than Gov't Mule.

He hasn't had an original thought since high school. Same with a few other posters, who still manage to stick their noses in every thread despite hating current Styx with a passion.

Well.I don't know how you got 2000,

There is about 2 1/2 million people here in Toronto.
There was about 8-9000 at Scorpions show here last summer.
There were about 7000 when Styx played here the last time (Not Casino Rama).
I don't think it is that farfetched to get 10000 for their combined show,but feel free to prove me wrong.

EVERYONE who doesn't like the current incarnation of Styx is a TOTAL asshole! Styx is MUCH better now then they were in 1977. If you don't think so, you're a ballad loving pussy!

"Waiting For Our Time" is MUCH better than any of the pussy ballad shit DDY contributed too. If only they could rerelease songs like Eddie - then they'd really rock!
