The Return of Crystal Ball
We debuted Crystal Ball in Montreal and the reaction to August's version was spectacular. So in the set it shall remain. This may turn out to be my favorite song August sings in the show, not to mention the guitar solo. The classic Styx repertoire is now complete.
Thanks to the people of Chicago who made this show at the Arcada in St. Charles another sell out.

Triumphant return to Toronto's historic Massey Hall. Not the best sound given where the person was standing but hell the love of the audience for this song still amazes me. The first headline show we did in Canada was at Massey Hall in 1976. Thanks Toronto.

Hey everybody,
This just popped up and thought you might get a kick out of it.
Me Tony and Andy chat about forming a power trio and doing Rush covers.
Andy was so chatty we could hardly shut him up and I told Tony how I always preferred his voice to Franks which explains his grin. I think I went one more time for a charity event. Overall my view on clubs mirrors Groucho's who once said, "I've got a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it". Or "I would never want to belong to a club that would have me as a member".
Cheers, ddy

I was up in Montreal this past weekend appearing on two TV
shows, En Direct which is like This Is Your Life
and Belle Et Bum which is a music program both of which are
live. Live TV for music is like tight rope walking especially
in this circumstance where I rehearsed that day with two different bands
and two different arrangements
of the songs. The guy Joselito Michaud whose life was being
featured told the producers I was his favorite vocalist so they flew me
up there in secret
as a surprise guest. At the end of the first show we got
into a car and went directly to the Belle et Bum show. All in all not bad.
God Bless Quebec.
Cheers, ddy
Oscar Dreams
Watching the Oscars last night was like a dagger in my heart.
Once again overlooked for my performance in The Perfect Man.
Oh sure Daniel Day Lewis had fake ears, a slouch, whiney voice and a
big hat
but lets' see him act and manage that Roboto head. Maybe
next year.
Seth McFarlane began his career with radio bits, one of which
referred to me as a disguised disgruntled caller on a radio talk show
complaining about Kiss. When the host recognizes my voice he calls me
a high pitched voice bastard. Funny stuff. He has graduated to insulting
real celebrities. The last song broke the show biz rule of better one
song to little than one song too much.
No way would Hollywood let Lincoln win after all he was a
Republican The movie was good but a tad reverential. It was Lincoln though.
Figures Argo would win after all the Hollywood community
is the hero. I liked Argo.
I am watching Silver Linings Playbook tonight.
Zero Dark Thirty was also very good but committed the sin
of not ruling out torture completely. Ms Bigelow please take a seat with
Mr. Eastwood.
Jessica Chastain is different in every role. Check out The
Help.
Music was the highlight. Shirley Bassey nailed it. Jennifer
Hudson was great though I have never liked that song, Les Miz kids were
good too. Adele whom I love seemed like her voice may have been giving
her problems and Norah Jones whom I also like was out of her element.
Hugh Jackman should have gotten a special award for doing
two things at once - acting and singing.
Impossible to compare Lewis and Jackman they are two different
animals. If Lincoln had sung Dixie instead of having the band play it...
well maybe then.
Didn't see the other movies and don't know that I will.
I love the movies and the Academy Awards but by the time
it was over I had to shave again,
Cheers, ddy
Check it out at 7:33 then watch the whole thing. Come Sail
Away gets 20 million hits with the help of DC Shoes and Ken
Scott. 20 million holy cow.

Hey everybody,
Here are some pics from our concert on Freemont Street in Las Vegas hope you like them.
Me and the band have had one heck of a year so far and were heading into our busiest July ever.
The word has spread about this band and this show which as I have said before gives Styx fans the songs and concert they have been waiting for. We have been selling out left and right which let's us know we've set the right course. You know the one for the virgin sea. Or as someone asked me recently what's a vergency.
The city of Las Vegas estimated the crowd at 2 million but that of course includes casino skimming and 1.9 million comps, oh and all the people from the canceled Sigfreid and Roy show and spill over from the Pacquiao fight. Those people were fighting mad.
This past week we played an acoustic show for radio station KHITS in Chicago on Navy Pier. The show sold out in less than 36 hours. The setting at the pier was priceless, with the lake and the skyline in full view on a perfect night. The station played The Best of Times and Mr. Roboto along with the usual suspects daily for nearly 2 months promoting the show. Thanks to Todd Cavanaugh and Eddie and Jobo for all the airplay and kind words.
Cheers, ddy
