parabellumStyx is going to unite us with music
You'd think old geezer's like these guys would be a bit less naive in their decrepitude, but no, they're going to unite the world with their music. Hoo boy.

BamaJeepsterThey are fooling themselves if they believe this grand illusion.

Hmm, it's just crazy enough to have no effect.

“I think in any given time, it’s always important for there to be a music that brings people together,” guitarist Tommy Shaw told Fox News hinting at the current political climate. “And we’ve always really prided ourselves in that. We’re all inclusive, all welcoming and it’s always just about the music. And the music is a great uniter. This particular summer, we’re reuniting with our friends whom we’ve toured with in the past. And a lot of these songs are a part of the great American classic songbook.”
James “JY” Young said part of their goal is to bring together fans with varying political views.
“I would add that the music is the universal language,” Young said. “I know we have fans on the far right; we have fans on the far left… We’re a force to bringing people together and having rational dialogue going forward.”
AT least they are smart enough not to go out of their way to piss off half of their potential audience.
"Hey, we'll take money from both sides of this divide!"
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Boo.
Best of luck to them though, although I think it won't have the effect that they hope.

ScoutmasterSo no one thinks Trump and Hillary could be best friends if only they would go to a Styx concert?

jbcummingsThe first 3 words of the article probably explain much of this.

bcereussMore power to them. I don't think this will amount to much (surprise!), but I am still a fan (always have been, despite the naysayers), mostly of their original lineup.
