Tal (pronounced like Al with a “T” instead of tall like Mikhail Tal), a coworker of mine for the last 14+ years, is a big Styx fan. He’s seen them live quite a few times throughout the years that I’ve known him and has always told me that they put on a great show. Though I’ve been familiar with the band for a long time and liked what I’ve heard, I’ve never really listened to an entire album of theirs, which invariably was a big part of my hesitation to see them live. In listening to them more recently, however, they have a lot more songs than I remember, and I might have to take Tal up on his offer to see them the next time they come around.
