At least Styx still tours and let Dennis do his own thing and just accept that that's what's best without splitting the whole band up.

As unfortunate as it is that the band split, at least it didnt totally end the band unlike some bands where they fought until they all hated each other and the band as a whole and never reformed or worked together again. At least tours and does their thing while Dennis tours and does it his way and they both accept it that way without too much negative rivalry.

@234JUDI so sorry:( Peace to you.

@chosenfool If these guys werent idiots, there was room for BOTH of them. Yea, Tommy Shaw rocked. Renegade, Blue Collar Man were awesome. And Babe was NOWHERE near DDY's best. Come Sail Away (1st 2 verses before he sold out) and The Best of Times DESTROY Babe. And I mean.. it's NOT close.
But as I said.. there was room for BOTH. It's called PACING. The 2 distinct sounds was why Styx was so badass.

"--Yeahhh!!!" My best/fave Styx song...I think?

Tommy admits in BTM Rewind that Kilroy Was Here pushed him over the edge, and he was probably heavily self medicated though most of this tour. Him and JY were sick of concept albums/rock operas and just wanted to rock. I like DDY, but those two camps were going in opposite directions, and they were never going to find any common ground. The original five (Tommy, JY, Chucky, John and Dennis) would never play together again after this tour. Shame.

I'll tell you, Tommy Shaw is worthy of respect. In 1970, R Dean Taylor recorded "Indiana Wants Me", and that was seriously lacking in the Testicles department. Mr. Taylor, THIS is how you do it!
@MrMAHBOI1 - If you weren't virtually illiterate, you'd realize that I put quotation marks around the word "hits". (See? I did it again.) I grew up listening to rock radio, not American Top 40. Dennis may have written more hit singles, but Tommy wrote the real shit that got played by rock stations for people who don't cower in fear when they hear anything heavier than the schmaltzy, wimpy DDY ballad, "Babe". Tommy couldn't write anything that sappy and pussified if his life depended on it.
