True, grew up in a neighborhood about 3 miles away from my wife's old
neighborhood. Unless you count Tommy Shaw as a real memeber of Styx.
Believe Tommy hails from Alabama..."Go Tide!"
Ah the conceptual stuff was ok, I like this band and used to own several
pieces of vinyl, at least 8, get it?
Can we all work together and find a band universally despised on this list?
We gotta rip somebody...anybody...what about Boston? Motley Crue? LA Gunns?
C'mon folks think about it.
