Have I started posting into a secret society ? I thought this was a message board about Styx. Froys posts dont bother me, I do have a life, I just dont get the constant bad mouthing. Please enlighten me, am I missing something from the dim and distant past of this board.
As for me? Oh and God should be capitalized. My point was that if you're gonna "battle" with Froy, you better bring a lunch. He is relentless and it's pointless to call him out. If you don't "get" the constant bad mouthing as you so put it... then don't read it. We're all entitled to our opinion whether people agree or not. And the message board is about Styx... thank you so much for reminding us. Some of us prefer DDY over Gowan. Some of us can't enjoy a DDY penned song performed by someone who sings in the wrong key. It wouldn't bother me if he sang his own stuff or even his songs off of Big Bang Theory. He's also fine as a background vocalist, but that's it. DDY is simply irreplaceable.
First of all, as others have said, he is not singing "off key". You just don't like his voice. Whatever.
Second....DDY HAS been replaced. He may be irreplaceable to YOU, in YOUR opinion....but the fact is he HAS been replaced, whether you like it or not.
People agreeing or disagreeing about the above is not the problem. The problem is some people just can't get over the fact that DDY will never be a part of Styx again and have to bitch and moan about it relentlessly. THAT is what is going on.
None of you whiners wants to talk about the music of Styx, or even Dennis. You whiners start a thread about "Paradise" and it lasts about 5 posts. You start a "Lets bitch about Styx ticket sales" and it goes on forever because you can't shut the fuck up about the Styx bitching.
Well, thanks for responding totobob... I didn't realize it was you. I said wrong key, not off key. He is singing in a key, just not the right one for the song and Styx apparently doesn't now how to change the key they play in to complement his voice. Instead they drop songs from the setlist... my advice, drop the rest. The songs will never work. It would make more sense if Tommy sang the DDY songs in the setlist. He already sings most of them anyways.
What are you talking about? Are you saying Gowan steps down the songs but the rest of the band doesn't? That's just not true.
Oh, and we'll bitch and whine to our hearts content.
Of course you will. That's all you guys know how to do.
It's funny though that it pisses you off and kinda sad. We talk about the music of Styx plenty.
Not 'pissed off' at all. And, it's an absolute lie to say you post about the music of Styx plenty. This forum hardly talks about the music of Styx AT ALL.
If we do start a thread dealing with DDY or his tie in Styx then we have people like yourself come in and do some of your own bitching and whining. It goes both ways and it has. Hey Pot, I'm Kettle... how ya doin'?
Again, that's a lie. Who fucked up the Paradise thread? It is NOT a two way street. I think a few people here just salivate waiting for any thread about Styx so they can act like assholes and post the same old bullshit to derail the thread. You are full of shit if you say you can't see that.
