Dennis DeYoung of Styx performs Blue Collar Man Woodstock Fair 6 Sep 2010

LOL DD thinks he is still relevant? Give me a break. Everything about this video sucks. Gowan and Styx will play rings around this bunch of losers. Tone of the guitar sucks (unless you were playing some Ozzy stuff, guess it would be passable). I guess about 12 Jack and Cokes will make it listenable. Let me drink about 20 more!!!

well well...this is a disgrace. As a former DDY fanatic, I can be totally objective. This sounds like a band that runs the east coast circuit just for kicks and giggles. Dennis looks ridiculous and why is there an identical keyboard on the other side of the stage??And to the bitter taxed too much guy below, maybe you should thank Obama for making this concert impossible for you to attend. He did you a favor. Now when you get your refund check, check out a REAL keyboard player...Saint Lawrence G~

This does not sound even close to Tommy Shaw. I really dislike this version of the song.

[jamesskb]

@StyxNut95 I agree. Have seen the band legally known as "Styx"numerous times since 1999 and this sucks. DeYoung had his chance to stay, but when he told the band he toured on his terms, and it was "his way or the highway," they took the highway and I am glad they did. Gowan, who is a much better showman and will play rings around DeYoung on a keyboard, was a great replacement. I've heard the same ole tired vocal argument regarding DD & LG for years. I will stick with LG & company!! JMO!!!

Is that Tammy Faye?

All of Dennis's fans need to realize: He dug his own grave with Styx. JY, Tommy, Chuck, and John all hated "Kilroy". They resented becoming bit players, and realized that their core (rock) audience had stopped listening to the band because of "Kilroy". They were right. "Kilroy" was the reason I stopped buying and listening. Dennis, however would not listen to them. They went their own ways. But when a re-union was attempted later, Dennis backed out. When they went without him, he sued them.

I am sorry. Glen Burtnik is no Tommy Shaw. In Styx, Tommy, JY, and Chuck are still there. And they don't play "Mr Roboto"!

Amazing!!!! Tommy Shaw and James Young...eat your heart out. These guys deserve to carry the name of STYX. Dennis DeYoung is STYX!!! I just saw them last week at Pabst Theater in Milwaukee. It's called THE MUSIC OF STYX. I closed my eyes from time to time during the show and I felt like I'm listening to the original Styx band. Guys...you need to go see the show! They're on tour right now.

[MQuiteContrary1973]

Oh, come on. And what's with the JY look-alike/wannabe? Saw JY/Tommy/Lawrence in VA this past October and they were phenomenal. This doesn't come close.

[taxingme2much]

Gowan isn't too bad. But it should be Dennis and JY and Tommy. It's such a shame that they all can't just get a long. DDY is great on keys here and gets this fair a rockin'. i was supposed to go to this, but was short on funds thanks to the Obama economy and how he's screwing the middle class. Anyway, great version here, but no Tommy.

[cwwmediadude]

Barbie Doll wife has to leave the stage, please. These guys Rock ! Gowan blows pig balls !

[TheGrandMarkE]

Video lead the audio!

[spiglator]

Right, because no one has heard of Woodstock. As for Gowan, he does not even try to hold the note on Suite Madame Blue. Dennis can still hold it for 23 seconds, just like before. I agree, Tommy is one of a kind. JY, can't sing, and he can be replaced by so many different guitarists it's not funny. By the way, JY is the only one holding up a reunion.

[spiglator]

Awesome, Tommy and JY are you watching this?

[TommyRockingShaw]

@spiglator

No. They were too busy kicking major ass at a real concert. Awesome? For real? This is such a joke! What is there to be jealous of? The crappy guy who wants to be Tommy, or the Sammy Hagar wannabe that is supposed to be JY? Dennis needs to stick to his songs, because he can do them. These guys can't even come close to pulling off Tommy or JY. And for the record, Gowan does a great DDY. Better than DDY could NOW. Not then. NOW.

[spiglator]

@TommyRockingShaw Honestly, I don't think anyone really wants to be like Sammy Hagar. lol. Take care my friend, I'm sure we agree on many more things than we disagree on. We both are Styx fans!

[mrroboto5785]

This is bad ass. THIS is Styx!!
