It is a great venue, but put it all in context. As I've said, they are both more equal than most people want to give credit for.


that was from can't stop rocking or whatever it was called i think


Either way, it was a package tour.

The Beacon in NYC for the GI/Po8 show is arguably the largest non-state fair/free event/concert venue they've played on their own in nearly 10 years. I believe the last time they played NYC it was Roseland.


Did DDY ever do a Package tour??


Does it really matter if he did or didn't? In fact there are many singers/musicians/bands that have declined to do package tours for a variety of reasons.

Does anyone on here actually knows what goes on behind the scene for these "package tours"? It's worth it to some bands/musicians and not to others.

Who cares, really! Sheesh!

You going to see the Po8/GI shows? I'm thinking about going to see the one here in Nashville. Likely against my better judgement because I still can't get past Larry's voice..... but the Ryman is a great place to see a show, and there are a lot of songs they will do that I'd love to hear live.


Hi Ash :)

I was offered free tickets for the Waukegan, IL show, not sure if I'm going. I personally can't get past Larry's voice either for these songs or the harmonies that aren't there for these albums. IMO However, I would like to hear/see Tommy sing his songs.


FREE TICKETS? Who you sleepin with ?

Robin Gibb, actually.

Whole different thing. Night of the Proms is not the same as a package tour here. It's those artists doing a smaller number of songs backed by an orchestra. It's huge. It's not like getting a couple of bands and playing the sheds.

Dennis has done a few double bills and such, but no package tours on the scale of what Styx has done really for any tour. He just does the weekend thing basically which would preclude him from doing something like that anyway.

masque wrote:he would in a freaking heartbeat if it were offered to him.

I'm sure it has been. That said, I doubt he would. He doesn't want to be on the road all summer (for example). Those tours are like 40 dates and not just weekends. It's been his choice not to do that after leaving Styx. In his opinion it's clearly the right decision for him. Fans may disagree, though.


that's when he played boat on the river
