Dennis Deyoung and Pat Benatar

[Archetype]

i also remember reading that pat wasn't very happy opening for styx back in 97. not sure why, i think it had to do with the fact she doesn't consider herself an "opening act"- or maybe she just isn't a styx fan. ::shrug::

Then why did the dumb bitch agree to do it? Oh, probably because it offered more money than headlining on her own.

I seem to remember back in 1997 DDY had a problem with Pat when she was on tour with Styx

I seem to recall she was making fun of Styx in some fashion during or after the '97 tour. Something about Styx stuck in the '80's with the big hair and using a ton of hairspray.

If Pat's so evil, why is Dennis touring with her? Wasn't it Dennis who was saying how he likes not having to deal with promoters or larger arenas anymore? Why open for Neil and Pat if the last time out was so unpleasant?

looks like this is a one shot deal. not a tour.

looks like this is a one shot deal. not a tour.

If that's the case then Pat or DDY may not have had anything to do with it. The fest may have just booked them both separate.

Hmmm.

July 15 · 7:30pm - 10:30pm

Pier Six Pavilion, Baltimore, MD

With a list of hits that include "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", "Love is a Battlefield", "We Belong" and "Heartbreaker", its safe to say no one may have rocked the 80s harder than Pat Benatar. Know for big power chords, tough sexuality, and powerful vocals, Benatar's music makes for a perfect way to spend an evening outside at Pier Six – her show last year was amongst our favorites and we are excited she is coming back July 15th!

Joining her on the bill is former Styx frontman Dennis DeYoung, the voice behind the hits “The Grand Illusion", "Lady", "Come Sail Away", "Mr. Roboto" and "Babe." Expect an evening of hits after hits.
