Ten years ago, in 94, we thought maybe nobody would ever care about Styx again.

So, maybe you don't see blues so much in Styx's music but it is definitely part of Tommy's early music.

I don't quite have the energy for extra curricular activities. I have to pace myself a little bit more.

They're kind of baby steps. We haven't made any measurable impact on the mortality rate or survival of this disease.

And in an era where radio stations that are inclined to play Styx music are your classic rock stations and the stations that play current music look at us as dinosaurs - the only way we could reach people with our new music, generally, is to perform live.

Originality is another criterion of aesthetic value. We may formulate an originality principle, according to which highly valuable works of art provide hitherto unavailable insights.... Notice that, although originality is a necessary condition of high aesthetic value, it is far from a sufficient condition. Many original works have little or no aesthetic value. An artwork may present a novel but uninteresting perspective, or one that is original but wrong.

And I said - Styx - as a musical group it is our place to reflect the light that is shining on us back onto this place and say - this is where so much great stuff started.
