I was at this very show as well, about 15 rows behind Froy. It was an excellent show and tour.


What were the songs that didn't make the DVD.

I remember them doing "Lights" and "Little Suzie" were there anymore?

Er, no. You're thinking of the 1997 tour which was behind GH2 and had "Little Suzie", "Queen of Spades", and "Dear John". The '96 tour - which is what teh DVD is from - didn't have any of that, nor did they play "Lights" on either tour to my recollection.

The reason you're confusing them is that the two tours were very similar overall.

They did Lights in the acoustic set in 96 Little Suzie was in 96 also
On My Way Paradise and Queen were the additions to 97

Later all off to Wisconsin

Froy is correct, they were actually touring in support of GH2 in 1996. I remember hearing Lights played live. Did they ever perform "Light Up" in 1996? or in 1997? They toured promoting 'Return to Paradise' album in 1997.

Now that you mention it, they did a small bit of "Light Up" in the acoustic set in Nashville for RTP. Not much, I think just one chorus. But not "Lights". We got a small chunk of "Man In The Wilderness," too, and it seems like maybe a bit of "Castle Walls."

Actually, I saw the Nashville date of RTP and they did in fact play "Little Suzie" that night. They announced it as their upcoming single.

"Lights" on the other hand, no. Not in Nashville, anyway. Other than "Little Suzie" the Nashville date was identical to the DVD, right down to what they said between songs and everything.

Great, great show.

I'm almost positive they played "Lights" in Milwaukee for that tour

They did it every show I saw in 96 it was just half the tune in the acoustic set.

I didn't see the 1997 tour but I did hear a snippet of "Man in the Wilderness" in 1996. I think they probably did some different things in different cities. I know, spontaneity at a Styx show?! Say it ain't so! LOL.

In Nashville, no "Lights," sadly. That's one of my favorite songs and I can't imagine I would forget that.
