Styx singer/guitarist Tommy Shaw provided his personal feedback on the joint outing. “In my early days of live performing I had several mentors who were kind enough to let me join in and play with them despite not being able to read charts,” Shaw mentioned. “Rod Henley, Ricky Parsons, Bobby and Larry Moore, Eddie Wohlford, Wimpy Jones, Country Boy Eddie and others gave me a shot. And I am thankful for that. By the time Chicago released their first album, I had enough experience to begin learning their amazing music on my own. Now, the idea of Styx touring with Chicago is a major thrill all on its own. We can’t wait to spend the summer with them!”
