Do not lump me in with them please, and it's because the other side is just as good as rolling out the insults and mis-information once Toph and Froy get going on their little jollies against the band. All bets are off and any good topics end up dying off with insults from both sides, it's to the point I just mostly lurk here because there really isn't anything going on from either Dennis or the current Styx anyways.
I think that was what I was getting at as well. Again, I admit to being a periodic whiner, and yes, I've bashed JY. I have never said anything negative that I can remember about TS. Rather, I have a great deal of respect for him. I love some of his non-Styx work. Nor, have I ever opined about Chuck and his situation. It's the music that collection of individuals, with DDY, that is the reason there are any Styx fans.
I agree with you - I read up a few times a week, just to see what's cookin' (which is usually nothing), but only post on the rare occasion I've seen enough of the continuous reaming of those who simply don't appreciate the current version, or the self-righteous, self-proclaimed "troll" police. There is simply nothing else noteworthy at this point. The current tour isn't illiciting any conversation at all....and why would it, with it's same 10 song set list as the past 12 years. I would take new music with this configuration. Again, Carrot album wasn't too bad in my book.
I'm praying that David Gilmour gets in the mood to do something new. Waters is coming to Philly again - I saw the show last year, but just can't justify coming up with the $500 to see it again.
