There are many problems with Styx starting with their name. Now if it'd been River Styx they'd have been a totally different band and I would be playing them right now.

Harry, getting back to the subject you brought up earlier, it was clear what direction the band wanted to go, regardless of what they chose to call themselves. Only until their label decided to hand them a more lucrative deal did the band go into a new direction.

yeah i stumbled upon it, pretty strong eh? thank you for listening
Avatar 9:54pm
David Shortell:

'Twas 1996, it says here: mermen.net...
The area was quite different then. A Merman asked the crowd how many of them lived in town. When few if anybody affirmed, he replied that's what he thought. They dedicated their last song to the "decayed ghost town that is Asbury Park" or something like that.
The Saint's owners previously owned T-Bird's Cafe on Main Street. Could that be where the Plimsouls played?
