I think the only music your doppelganger Pammy Jean EVER listens to in the car is the "Return to Paradise" live CD, and I was thoroughly enjoying it last week. My ma and I have our clapping during "Too Much Time On My Hands" down to perfection- and someday will crash a car doing it on the freeway.

-H (<---- probably the only 22-yr. old on the planet who can claim A) having seen Styx live SIX times and B) having a crush on Tommy Shaw)

Top five:
U2, The Pretenders, Blondie, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (and then Fleetwood Mac)

Also love:
No Doubt, Garbage, Led Zeppelin, Guns N Roses, The Eagles, Joe Walsh, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Jefferson Airplane, Heart, The Strokes, The White Stripes, Portishead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Warren Zevon, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Jet, The Who, Bruce Springsteen, Jackson Browne, The Rolling Stones, REM, Berlin, The Ramones, Pearl Jam, Blues Traveler, Matchbox Twenty, Goo Goo Dolls, Carole King, Traffic, Alice Cooper, Neil Young, Alanis Morrisette, The Black Crowes, etc.

2. Heart
3. Paul Simon
4. CCR
5. Bad Company

H, you're up to six times now? You have me beat as I'm at 5. But you know I retired after they gave Dennis the boot. Even though he's a whiner, Styx just isn't Styx without him.

KC radio plays a lot of Styx, much more than Phoenix. I've heard Too Much Time on My Hands dozens of times in the short time I've been back here. LOVE that hand-clapping part.

I've only seen them once with Dennis, on the Return to Paradise tour. I don't mind no Dennis. He icks me. He's so sanctimonious. He's on TV and stuff all the time up here in Chicago. His songs have never been my favorites, I've always liked the J.Y. & Tommy stuff better, so I don't mind him not being around. Ugh- I even remember seeing Styx play at Station Casino (Ameristar, now, where I lost $40 on the slots last week). Styx at a casino. LOLOLOL.

I heard "Renegade" twice on the Fox while I was there!

Kate, did you hear about the supposed Black Crowes reunion? I'm psyched if it happens.

Well, if my vinyl and CD collection means anything, next to FM and Stevie, I have more Zeppelin albums than any other group...

Other all-time faves:

Tom Petty
The Beatles
Sting (with or without the Police - Dream of the Blue Turtles is a masterpiece, imo)
The Stones
Heart
George Clinton/Parliament ('cause I need the funk)
James Brown (see comment above)
The Red Hot Chili Peppers (first few albums are the best, but I still like all of 'em)
The B-52's (another soundtrack of my life band)
Lots and lots of others I can't think of at the moment...

And Styx was my second concert! The Grand Illusion tour, yeah, yeah, I'm old! :p
