Impressive
by Fan from Sk on 2024-05-21Credit Union Place - SummersideRating: 5 out of 5I can’t say I was a huge fan of Styx through the 80’s-90’s. Knew the songs. Liked a few of them. Then I saw them play live in Saskatoon in 2021 or 22? They were super tight, polished and delivered like old vets. Most noticeably is the appreciation for their fans. Gowan and JY especially. New kid Will as well. Interaction with the fans was impressive. Gowan is really great fit and is a 100% true entertainer. His regular eye contact and interaction with fans during performances is top notch. Truthfully…. Biggest reason I just went half way across the country to see two shows in Moncton and summerside. Moncton casino management try to stop fans in the front row was standing or approaching the stage which is sad and stupid. Musicians and entertainers use energy from their crowd to deliver a higher calibre show. If I’m happy after a concert, I may stick around and drop a few bucks on the tables or slots. Sad casino management don’t realize this. Larry (Lawrence) Gowan’s youngest brother Terry has taken on the bass duties for Styx and has fit in nicely, was his first two shows. Good call! Good player. Tommy Shaw is an amazing player, JY, Gowan and the impeccable solid tasty drumming from Todd S…. New adds are good players …. Solid show…. Great sound….. polished …. Legends. Highly recommend. Ps…. Thanks for the picks TY and Gowan. Made this fan’s evening a bit sweeter!
