This might have been the greatest night of my life.

Ted Nugent takes the stage at 7:00 and who is with him? DEREK ST HOLMES! Belted out a bunch of classics the way they were meant to be heard. Just What The Dr Ordered, Stormtroopin', Hey Baby, Stranglehold with those distinctive lead vocals.

REO Speedwagon still truly one of the greatest bands in history. They played all the hits and a few songs I never thought I would hear like Son Of A Poor Man. Ended with Ridin' The Storm Out. During Keep On Lovin' You, that was me and my ex-wife's song, tears started streaming down my face, remembering only the good times.

Styx finished the night out sounding better than ever. Tommy Shaw, Dennis De Young and James Young trading off lead vocals throughout the night. Dennis De Young truly one of rock's great frontman, with the revolving keyboards, seems to keep getting younger and younger.

My only problem with the show was the really short sets. With tix at a hundred bucks and a non-work day they should have just started it real early and let everyone play 2 hours. My heart probably would have exploded about halfway thru REO but it would have been well worth the risk.

Did Styx play Fooling Yourself (Angry Young Man)?

I still remember the Grand Illusion tour show I saw.

Wait, is Dennis de Young back in the band?

Their website doesn't even mention Dennis deYoung....you sure he was in the band? He left a long time ago.

Did Styx play Fooling Yourself (Angry Young Man)?

Yes! Unfortunately they didn't play Mr Roboto which was very disappointing.
