Apologies for missing that the bassist is none other than Chuck Panozzo. Insert bass player jokes here.

It'd be great if you could take a look at Dennis DeYoung's live skills... he's in his 70s and songs as good as he did back then. Great vid, by the way.

My dad took me and my brother to a Styx concert on June 26, 2016. A week later I had bought myself a guitar and was already trying to get a band together. I liked all the modern horrible stuff before that and that concert changed me much for the better and I'm still jamming now and it's really all because of them. Great stuff!!!

Hey Ken, love your enthusiasm with Styx. I'm from Chicago and they are local hometown guy's. Dennis is the ultimate showman who really enjoys his fans. Im glad you feel they are a killer band too. They have been performing together and apart for like 40 years?!'Crazy amount of time. Yes, they have and still had issues with each other but the music remains timeless and the performance s are a 10.

Thanks!!! I missed the video. One of my favorite bands since 12yrs old (I’m a young 50yr old now lol) “paradise theater” (styx) and “Escape” (journey) “On the radio” (Fonna Summer) and “Hi Infidelity” (REO) my very first 4 Lps. GREAT BANDS!! My dad and Step-Dad both were and still very established musicians and when I was 12-14 my step-dad told me ya can’t look down at your guitar and you MUST sing (at least backup) or you’ll get passed up or another guitar player that can. Great advice... I’ve always stayed true to that and even later became a lead song as well even acoustic solo acts (more money). Sorry for the long story. Thanks again!! Ya Rock Ken!!👍🏼

They were an incredible band hands down!!! I remember my Styx’s 4x4 poster that was on my bedroom wall. Shaw/Blades was another moment when really great musicians just made some amazing songs that still stand up today!!! I feel so blessed to have been alive when all of these bands were playing on the radio and rocking all the arenas. My son is 16 and I almost feel sorry for him because he would be hard pressed to find bands today that have all the elements of groups I grew up listening too. True musicians, singers, song writers, that can bring it night after night and with energy that melts you!! Riffs that still to this day are recognized and so iconic. John Bonham “when the levee breaks”, Ted Nugent “Strangle Hold” Motley Crue “Kickstart my Heart”. Just stuff that will never get old and will never happen again. Love your taste in tunes. Keep going please!! Loving it!!!

And Tommy Shaw is fantastic - like you all said they're master musicians. One of my personal favs is "Fooling Yourself" :-)

First rock concert I saw. 1977 Grand Illusion tour. 2 1/2 hours with TWO encores; and the encores were like 3 songs each. It was like the best concert I ever went to. I’ve seen them at least 12 times since. Each and every time they throw down. Good to see that you truly get their goodness. Man in the Wilderness is my favorite Tommy song. They started adding it to their show in the last 5 years or so. The fans appreciated it too.

I'm 50 and have been a guitar player, bassist, and subpar singer since I was a kid. Lately I've found myself looking back at all great bands who were organic and played their asses off like this. I've also found myself gravitating to home recording "artists" and finding that organic vibe again. The cream will rise. I think another great era of real music is brewing as we speak.

When I was in fifth or sixth grade, my dad showed me “Mr. Roboto.” I fell in love with the song and listened to it all the time (I actually choreographed a dance to it and performed it a concerning amount of times). Last September I got to see Styx live... my very first concert! At that time, Styx wasn’t a favorite band of mine. I only knew “Mr. Roboto,” “Renegade,” and other popular hits from my dad and the Greatest Hits CD I had purchased a couple weeks prior. After the concert, I was BEYOND amazed. I started listening to more of their content after and they became a close second to Journey. They are an incredible band, and I am so glad that I can appreciate that now. I think about that concert almost every day. I am pretty sure I cried. Surreal. The way I felt when the band walked on stage was something I had never felt in my entire life. I hope the upcoming Journey concert makes me feel the same way!

Tommy Shaw is currently 66 years young.. that’s 4 years ahead of me, and my goal (with KTVA’s help) is to demonstrate that kind of stage presence. Can we do it?? You bet we can!

My mom was a huge STYX fan, as am I and we had so much fan! Tommy was amazing and the show was unforgettable. This is one of my favorite STYX songs, love Tommy Shaw!! He doesn't get enough credit! Even in Damn Yankees, he did amazing. I had this cassette tape and it's a great album! Every time I hear this on the radio, I turn it up to 10!

Somehow I always managed to get front row. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 oh adding an edit..... I'd love to see you critique their song "Crystal Ball". That song meant alot to me. I helped me through a really hard time in my life, and I still think it's their best song. Oh and I have this concert on dvd. It's one of my favorites.

20 times, I'm so jealous...😏 JY gets a bad rap from certain people. But I've heard so many stories about how good he is to his fans. JY once said that because his sister became a paraplegic as a teenager, he learned to appreciate everything he has, and can do. Because she is unable to... JY really is more humble than many believe...

Styx have got to be one of my all-time favorite bands ever! The line-up DeYoung, Shaw, Young, and the Panozzo brothers was the best! Their albums running from Equinox through to Kilroy Was Here have stood the test of time as some of the best music from the late 70s and early 80s. I can plop on their music and drop into fantastic mood. And, personally, I think that Come Sail Away is one of their greatest songs ever. My only regret is that I never got to go see them in concert during their heyday.

Hey Ken it thrills me to see you do this video. The way you describe tommy and this band is how I have felt about them for 45 years. And here’s the thing you may not know about that video you saw. It was the last night of a several month tour. They were probably close to playing their 65th show or thereabouts on the night that show was filmed. That provides even more perspective l!!!! Anyway, thanks for your videos. I love what you do.

I've seen The Who Van Halen and tons and tons of other rock group Steve Miller Lynyrd Skynyrd Etc and styx still the best.

I would be very interested to have to do a reaction to the Styx Since 1999 when Canadian Keyboardist and Singer Lawrence Gowan took over for Dennis DeYoung. I personally like both Dennis and Lawrence as singers , Songwriters and keyboard players. Lawrence Gowan made a huge name for himself in Canada with his solo career before his entrance into STYX

Have seen Lawrence Gowan w Styx about 3 times - unfortunately I find him beyond annoying. Way too overdone, he sort of reminds me of watching a High School air guitar contest. But I put up w him bc Tommy & JY are still so awesome. I was lucky enough to see Styx with all the original members. THIS is how it should be. Wish they would put their differences aside and do one more tour together.

I recognize Dennis's jacket in the clothes. This is the concert in the late 90s that I attended at Great Woods in Massachusetts.

Yes this is Return to Paradise. I saw them in Chicago when I was 9 and cried the whole concert away because I wanted Pat Benatar but she left. Now Styx is one of my favorite bands, and I own this DVD! My kids love it with me

Great band, quality songwriting! Didn't know much about them so discovering them now. Man they kick ass live! Inspiring! Totally up my alley along with 10CC as their slight quirkiness & pop sensibility reminded me of those guys.

I saw Styx on that tour with Kansas opening. Styx was fantastic all around. Steve Walsh was having a rough time of it, which was sad because he had one of my favorite voices of the 70s.

Can't believe I found a Styx fan my age! PLEASE, PLEASE do QUEEN OF SPADES on the PIECES OF EIGHT ALBUM. It's basically the last really rockin tune that DDY did. They are now doing it in thier live shows, and Gowan does a respectful job on the lead vocal. Oh, and don't forget, FOUR TRIPLE PLATINUM ALBUMS IN A ROW, never done before, and never done again! And if you want to hear some more of thier badass riffs, check out, SUITE MADAM BLUE, MAN IN THE WILDERNESS, AND SNOWBLIND. Most are on the concert video your watching now, the RETURN TO PARADISE ALBUM.

I saw Styx live in Billings, MT when I was a teenager....and I wish I could have seen them when I was older. I liked Styx growing up, but I didn't appreciate the quality of music they produced (especially live), but I do now. Good stuff.
