This says it all

About a year old, but the first time I've seen it and don't think it has ever been posted here. I think this captures pretty well the feelings of many folks.

Toph, let it go man.

Who are these "many folks"? Was there a nationwide poll I missed?

Why? This guy makes some great points.

There are many people on both sides of the fence on this subject. If they were all on one side of the fence then one side would not have anyone coming to their shows.

What fued? There is no fued anymore. Each camp is happy doing things their own way now.
Best to keep it that way.

I'll take it even further. I bet if you conducted a poll among classic rock fans (who were aware/familar with Styx) and asked them, "Would you like to see a reunion between Dennis DeYoung and Tommy Shaw/JY and a tour of the classic Styx lineup?" Well over 90% would say yes.

The guy makes some good points... but it's now ancient history. Why keep bringing up the same old stuff?

I'm an avid DDY fan, but no way in Hell would I want a reunion

Because people have... wait for it..... too much time on their hands

Actually, I think it would be more realistic that the among average "classic rock" fans they don't care or even think about it much. I would say this would be more centered around avid fans of Styx who in one camp or the other. For me at this point it's whats done is done. It's over and obviously each of them has moved on. Some may or may not like it but it is what it is. Having said that, it does not change my opinion of what and how things happened. Any reunion between DDY and the rest of Styx would only be for business\financial reasons at this point. They gave it a go '96 thru '99 and we all know the result. Unfortunately, some of these guys have wounds that will never heal. Very sad but true none the less.

One guy has a wound that will never heal.

There is still a feud,but it's behind the scenes. Doesn't rear it's ugly head in public much anymore. That has been the key the last few years. It always surfaces when they are asked about a reunion in an interview based on the response and counter response of the members.

Doesn't matter at this point. I really doubt their is any "feuding" going on between them. It's clear that they do not even talk to each other at this point.
