So, maybe you don't see blues so much in Styx's music but it is definitely part of Tommy's early music.
And I said - Styx - as a musical group it is our place to reflect the light that is shining on us back onto this place and say - this is where so much great stuff started.
And for REO - they get to play for some Styx fans and then we get to play in front of some REO fans. It helps spread the new music to the following of other bands.
Ten years ago, in 94, we thought maybe nobody would ever care about Styx again.
And in an era where radio stations that are inclined to play Styx music are your classic rock stations and the stations that play current music look at us as dinosaurs - the only way we could reach people with our new music, generally, is to perform live.
Whereas with us - what you hear is what's happening right then and there on the stage - so we don't need no stinking technology.
