Hey guys I’m on vacation once I get back and the video is up for at least seven days. I’ll put all the names in a lottery wheel and comment back to the winner!

[@RealHomeRecording]

I guess you're not too much of a loser now that you got to hang out with a rock band backstage!

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

CONGRATS TO Logan Blevins and Sergio Vegaz on winning the picks. Reach out to me on facebook or instagram. If they aren't claimed soon I'll draw some more names!

[@seanmcgeeney4570]

A huge big hello from Ireland. I thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed your journey with the guys from the Styx team. I thought your pick giveaway was awesome, and it tickled me, because back in March of 1982 the band I was in at the time, were on tour in the states. One particular day, myself, our drummer, and guitar player took a stroll downtown. We turned a corner and seen a huge billboard. "City Center Theatre, STYX" So what else were men to do but head straight to the Box Office and purchase three tickets for the show that night. You couldn't ask for better, we got tickets for the very front row!! It was the "Kilroy was here tour" I have to say I was absolutely blown away by the show. But getting back to your giveaway, it struck a chord with me, because the night of the show, I managed to get one of JY's picks, a cool red one. At the end of the gig, I got to shake hands with all except Chuck, which broke my heart as being a bass player, I wanted to especially shake HIS hand. I managed to keep JY's pick safely for about thirty five years, but in or around 2019, I went to dig it out to reminisce, something I had done over the years, but could not find it. To say I was devastated would be putting it mildly!! I just had to share that little memory with you 😊 All the guys you spoke with were so lovely, and it was very sweet that they took so much time to chat with you. Truly legends I have to say. When I post this message, I'll discover a load of misspellings, as it's almost 4:30am here, and I'm cross-eyed with tiredness, as I'm just home from gigging. Now I watched your videos earlier today (Or should I say yesterday, but you know yourself, it's still today until I go to bed 😂) Sending you my very best wishes, and blessings from Ireland...... Sean. ☘🤘☘

[@soaringnewengland1970]

@@RecordingStudioLoserHi!! I’m a huge fan of the channel. I’m 12 years old and I love the band Styx. This tour is so cool. I’ve rewatched this and the other Styx videos like 3 times 😂!!! If you ever get backstage with Styx or another band again, make sure to see if I could go in a contest to get something. I’m starting a guitar pick collection…

[@cookie_mix]

Hope you guys enjoy this. It’s our every day and sometimes it’s easy to forget how lucky we are to have this kind of job. Seeing the positive comments on these videos reminds us why we do this. Thank you. Edit: No I don’t want any picks. I know where the stash is. :)

[@dalenaadams7920]

Love all of the Styx crew so much! Thank you so much (and I’ll take the picks 😂♥️)

[@CephBacon]

It's great seeing all this gear and your insights into why you've done things the way you have. Not everyday a show this big gets detailed past "here's all the super expensive gear and my waves plugins on the vocal chain"

[@TheMixClub]

Thanks Man I needed this video. thanks Again.. Stay Safe

[@alvarezgamers]

Wizardry!Thanks for sharing the knowledge. :)

[@buddavenport6928]

Man, The reason I play guitar is Tommy Shaw. He walked out playing Rockin' The Paradise and my life changed forever. I think I have played everyday since that day in Greensboro in 1980-81. My lifelong dream is to one day meet TS and tell him how much he improved the quality of life through music.

[@fredoman1323]

Second comment: this engineer (missed his name) NEEDS HIS OWN PODCAST OR SHOW! My God, he's so interesting to listen to, and so knowledgeable it's amazing. He embodies the statement "I forgot more than you'll ever know."

[@billyrouse4813]

I remember seeing Styx in 1999/2000 on tour with REO Speedwagon and Survivor. Awesome show!

[@DeathMetalGuitar]

Chris Hoff is a ROCKSTAR in is OWN right. WOW that guy's knowledge and experience is sooooo impressive. Thank you!

[@cdnaudioguy]

I really enjoyed your video. I enjoy the behind the scenes videos and yours was very interesting. I’m amazed by all the moving parts and how they all come together in such a short period of time. Thanks for taking us along on your tour.

[@jenibond]

What great video !!!! love to geek out on the gear ! but also the brain behind the stuff

[@basseblyberg8474]

Very cool videos!

[@dspencer1201]

3 Pyx of Styx. It was hearing a kid holding a boombox outside the grocery store playing Renegade in 1980 that made me decide I was going to get a tape player. The rest is history.

[@marcusfrombespokeaudio5372]

Awesome video! Thank you for the long-form walkthough with a bunch of absolute beauties.

Wow...what a great bunch of guys..all handshakes etc..

[@PhantomBeatsMM]

I’m learning so much from your videos. I’m just starting out and all of this stuff is super exiting to me! I can’t imagine what it would feel like to own one of the picks… Greetings from Berlin 🎸

[@caseylockwood5512]

So cool they let you guys do this. This series has been incredibly insightful, it really is staggering, the amount of effort, coordination, brain power, and sheer technology goes into these modern performances. So many moving parts that you don't see on the stage, or think about. Really gives you a new appreciation for live music.

[@ChocolatePuppies]

Would absolutely love a pick!!! Tommy is my favorite!! Thank you for sharing the experience with us so amazing to see

[@HundredDollarVideo]

I love seeing this kind of stuff! I am fortunate to play in an act that has 1/1000th of what this set up is, so I am absolutely fascinated by what these guys are doing from moment to moment with an act like this. We make minimal adjustments in the night.. I can't even imagine having adjustments in real time like this, both FOH and from the techs. Amazing!

[@christopherjackson5696]

Very cool !! Love to see how every musician has there own “Guy” taking care of them, certainly organized chaos!!

[@tradewinds-wb4kn]

That was a lot of fun. Always wondered what is behind the big wall and running a show for 3 bands? Wow. Good job and work with the camera as well.

[@mobiletoonz]

loving this video, as someone who does roadie work (on a much smaller scale) I love seeing everything behind the scenes. Totally geeking out as well. OH and Id love the picks !

[@MarinerEarendil]

I want the picks. Tomy is my favorite! Love the videos man, they are really great. Can't wait for the next. Cheers from Greece.

[@rklinebays]

Love this video! I’ve been a Styx fan since I was a little kid (Tommy!) I also use to work at Sound Stage in Nashville back in the day (so I know just enough to follow along) - this was really cool & fascinating! Thank you!

[@alpenglow4243]

You owe it to yourself to see Styx live someday. Fantastic!

I WANT THE PICKS , dang, so cool and so very jealous! I learned to play keys by listening to the 96’ double cassette Return to Paradise album. I’ve since seen these guys five times and hoping to catch this tour!

[@roberthowell4549]

Give me the pick! Great video. Always cool to see what’s really going on.

This was absolutely fantastic 👏🏾 I want the picks.... please 🙏🏾

[@peehandshihtzu]

I want the picks! Tommy Shaw is the man! This video series is truly and unbelievably amazing! Thank You and them for sharing the experience! :)

[@wildmustangart1577]

This is Awesome. Styx was my very first concert ever on my 17th Birthday in 1981 at McNichols Arena in Denver. - and I last saw them at Red Rocks (as a Professional Concert Photographer) in 2016 with the Colorado Symphony. Phenomenal! ... and Tommy made for some really amazing images. Great to see them still at it!!

[@TheCampnFool]

Such a legend of a band. When I heard crystal ball and suite madam blue I was hooked. Oh, and yeah, I'd love to have the picks.

[@blevhead]

This is the coolest video ever!! Styx is my sons favorite band, he is currently their number one listener on Spotify. He is 22 and completely obsessed with the band. We were fortunate to get to see this tour in Rogers Arkansas. Great show!!! Now to get to see how its all done is so amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. I would love the picks to give to my son. No matter who you choose, just know that your channel has a new fan! Thanks again for sharing.

[@DUSTINBARTRUM]

Definitely glad I subscribed to this channel

[@zerokoolTV]

Damn I mean damnnnnnnnn. You know aside from any band, I admire all the gear and behind the scene stuff. These guys are the true artist in my book. I dont even know what the heck they talking about. Much respect to all those engineers man. Keep rocking.

[@AJPMUSIC_OFFICIAL]

Another great video. Interesting the contrast between the different rigs. I wonder if modern bands will ever match these style if set ups and volume of crew. These guys are clearly in the know and its important to get that information before it becomes lost.

[@MySecretSpotrecording]

Circus people are funny!!! LOL!! Great video again!! What a great team Styx has!!! Bravo!!

[@magicdudegary]

Thanks so much for asking questions and being the kids I no the candy shop for that fresh discovery kind of vibe! I’d love a pick if possible :D thank you!

I want the pics!!! And Tommy is my fave!!

[@aeonikus1]

Amazing content, this whole series on STYX it's a gold. Although camera work is shaky, you could work on that, except that it was great!

[@lildrumma86]

I was at this show. Everything sounded flawless

[@mikeinthefastlane8370]

I'll take the bait! Those picks are cool!JY has always been my favorite. Have all his solo albums & have seen the band live several since 1991.

[@MarkAllenStone]

I want those picks! Awesome video series!!! I shared them in my audio nerd group…. Thanks for what you do! My favourite Stix player is Todd Sucherman… I’m still a drummer at heart… even though I own more guitars 🎸 than drums…. Lol 😂

[@marilynsmith2702]

I just saw Styx last weekend in Tampa. They were awesome! This was the 6th time I've seen them. Reo and Loverboy sounded awesome as well. Great show!! I WANT A PICK 😀

[@celticfury2666]

I want the picks Tommy Shaw is my favorite member and the story of how he joined Styx is awesome. I got to see them on my birthday in 2017 in Atlanta coincidentally also with REO and Don Felder. It was the best show I'd seen in years. Thanks so much for making this video, I'm a studio producer now, but spent much of my life doing live sound in clubs (one of which I owned) We had a lot to do in that realm, but, it's mind boggling seeing what these guys went thru. Thanks again RD

[@KyleDabour]

awesome video!! Styx is incredible!!! JY is my favorite member of Styx

[@sandyballa152]

I think that was the best gear review I have ever seen. I dont think the average concert goer is aware of the amount of equipment & technology not to mention the hard work that goes into putting on a production of this magnitude. It was very interesting to me being a muscian myself how bands are getting away from stage sound & sending a direct signal to the front of the house. I would love to have those guitar pics your giving away Tommy Shaw & JY. These two are my favorite & looking forward to more content.

[@tedbyrum5165]

Love the backstage look, it’s great to see all the work that folks do to make the rock and roll circus happen! Oh yeah I want a pick! Lol Tommy Shaw

[@nagapamp]

Def Todd! One of the greatest rock drummers today! Great videos man!

[@deanolson3804]

I've been lucky enough to see them in the 70's, 80,s, 90's, 2000, and so on unfortunately not this year, I'm still hopeful. What a band, what a history.

[@traceysmith-brunelle8817]

Thank you for the epic backstage look into Styx's world. I would like one of the guitar pics - James "JY" Young is my favorite guitarist; he has some of the most awesome Stratocasters in today's music industry.

[@dougsowell]

Wow, that was awesome. Saw Styx a few years ago. They are real pros that don't get enough credit in the industry.

[@loganblevins1021]

As my dad mentioned just a few comments down, I've been a huge styx fan all 22 years of my life thus far! I'm pretty proud to say I'm one of their top listeners on spotify and have gotten the privilege to see them 4 times in my life, twice in the past 2 years. No show on the planet compares to theirs and thank you for giving us an inside look into the people and equipment that makes those shows possible, you've gained a new fan! And I would love to have any of the picks to add as the Cornerstone (no pun intended) of my Styx Collection!!

[@RecordingStudioLoser]

[@nathanhickey2430]

I saw Styx the First time in the early 70's at a free concert one afternoon at AR Tech . We didn't have any idea who they were but we quickly learned!!!

[@daleplatino]

Thank you

[@robertpurdy4452]

I saw them last July 4th in Dubuque, IA from the second row right in front of Tommy. Styx was my first concert in 1981 (Salt Lake City) and Tommy was playing his Explorer and I have been an Explorer fan since and finally got a lefty one in 2017. When Tommy brought out the Explorer in Dubuque I gasped so loud he heard me and I let him know I have one because of him. During the next song and since I was in the second row he looked at me and tossed me a pick...my life is complete now.

[@roberthowell4549]

The average concert goer has no clue all the work that goes into making a single show happen. This work begins months in advance of the actual tour. I have worked in the production side for over 30 years and every artist and rig is different. Sometimes the artist really doesn’t know how his own rig works but there is always someone who knows it inside and out, these people truly make the show happen day after day. Send me the picks…love the video.

[@Nimion2]

I want the picks. Sweet seeing what went into the Indy show..I was there! Hope you have more video, maybe of Libby and the lighting. JY is the man. I make my case: Midnight Ride(early career), Snowblind(midcareer) and Trouble at The Big Show(recent career). Thank you crew for an awesome evening in Noblesville!

[@stevekannes89]

I’d really love Tommy Shaws pick! Being a gigging guitar player, I can fully appreciate what these engineers go thru on the road! Thank you

[@mikebottiaux5850]

I worked with Loretta Lynn back in the early eighties, equipment has certainly improved! Great video👍

[@scottritshie105]

Awesome video and cool to see the rig! This really hits home for me because I was Styx' social media manager for 2 years (Oct 2016 - Oct 2018). I worked a lot with Todd, who was always very gracious to do fan Q/A videos for me. It was a blast posting to 1.7M followers on Facebook and coming up with fun things to engage the band and fans in together. As a pro keyboard player, it was also awesome hanging with Lawrence on a couple of occasions and talking keyboard tech... he's an extremely generous, real, brilliant gentleman. I got excited when they talked about Todd remoting in on Crash of the Crown during Covid, which he also did on The Mission well before Covid. I have some original cell phone video footage of Mission recordings in Nashville on March 24, 2016, where Todd was remote recording on "The Outpost" and "Greater Good." Tommy, his wife, Will and the other crew were watching as Todd (in TX) recorded in real-time over the other tracks. I have a fun memory from back in June, 2017, where Styx and REO played at what was then called Verizon Amphitheater in Alpharetta, GA. I somehow found myself at a table in the green room with Ricky to my right, Mike Mettler (music journalist and long-time friend of the band) to my left, and Dave Amato (REO guitarist) to Ricky's right. Since Ricky was in The Babys in the early 80's, I broke the ice by pulling out my iPhone, cueing up a piano in Garage Band and playing the intro to "Isn't It Time," the Babys' 1977 hit that I absolutely loved as a kid. Ricky and Dave both found it quite amusing that I could play that on such a tiny keyboard. It was kinda cool connecting with 2 legends of rock for a tiny moment in time. Speaking of that, Styx is timeless! The Mission is without a doubt one of the best albums from any classic rock band, IMHO. Keep up the great videos!!!!

[@ELtee555]

I've been a Styx fan since 1977. I've seen them 12 or 15 times starting in 78. I saw the Kilroy show before things happened. In '96 I saw them with Todd for the first time. It's hard to believe that the new drummer has been with them all these years. I was a soundman for a local band in the late 70's for a few years and one of the things I always admired about Styx was a clean stage. Back then the stage monitors were under the floor and they always hid the guitar amps on stage. I made that a priority in our stage setups. They were one of the first bands with wireless guitar rigs and even back then I think the techs did the effect switching. They used to have spotlight operators positioned on the corners of the overhead rigging and they would know all of the song to properly light and follow the action. Back in those days Tommy, and JY would run back and forth on the stage while playing. It was very impressive. They move less today but I see Tommy's desire to run during many of his more recent performances. JY has always been my favorite member because of his confidence on stage so many years ago. Once he appears, he shines with confidence and his smile shows how much he enjoys being there. One of the things that I liked as a soundman working with that small band back in the day was the fact that they were also pros when it came to performing. Never mind what they did earlier that day, or even five minutes before showtime, when they hit the first note they nailed it. The only thing that mattered, like Tommy said, somebody might be hearing it for the first time live and you owe it to them to deliver. Since I worked with a band like that, I knew it was another reason why I liked the Styx approach to live performances. I spread the Styx story to any young person willing to listen because there are many lessons to be learned from a band, a family, a crew, and even the fans that have been in my Styx experience. The songs are great with such depth and meaning and the performances are top notch every time I see them.

[@fredoman1323]

I'm a fan of the band for so long that I listened to them with Curolewski. But I learned more about music (and what it takes to make it) from watching this video than I have in my 52 years. Anyway, hell yes, I want a pick, preferably Tommy's. His songs got me through some tough teen years and all I hope is to someday return the favor with at least the opportunity to tell him thank you.

[@shootthemoon9357]

I want the picks! 😝

[@wc4lif]

Amazing video

[@ohu8one221]

I love STYX but there may be some else who really wants the picks more than I do I play their music so that works for me. Really great walk through. Loved the G1, G2 and G3 connectors. didn't even know they made them, but it seems way easier to makeup. Also, I have DaVinci already but the trial probably an older version, what would you recommend for a video editor I can collaborate with my band members using their iPhones and pulling everyone into a divided single screen. We have been recording remotely and I want to collage them all on one screen and sync them of us playing. I subscribed as well thank you for all the hard work getting this out to everyone and sharing it.

[@johnglagola9870]

Used to see these guys show up at DJ’s Rock and Roll music store in Cicero IL. They would close the store and shop around. I was also told JY was taught guitar there. I remember Pops (the owner) and John the salesman. Such great guys. The Styx band was cool too. It was exciting times as a young musician. I’m glad they are still rocking. Put me down if you still are giving the guitar picks. I’d totally appreciate them!!!
