STYX’s Tommy Shaw Posts Year End Update
December 28, 2011, 12 years ago
STYX vocalist/guitarist Tommy Shaw has posted the following update:
“It was truly an amazing year. Some of the highlights: Styx toured with YES, and released Regeneration: Volume II, and did our best to come to a venue close enough so you could come get your Styx fix, Lawrence released and toured behind Return Of The Strange Animal, Todd released Methods And Mechanics II and I finished and released The Great Divide and performed songs from it live at the Grand Ole Opry. Plus we returned to the UK and toured with JOURNEY and FOREIGNER, then we continued on our own to Sweden Rock. Now we're all enjoying some time with our families and friends at home, and the schedules are starting to come together for what looks like another very busy Styx year in 2012. Thank you all for making this possible! Cheers! T Shaw”Shaw's debut bluegrass album, The Great Divide, has made Billboard's top 50 Bluegrass Albums of 2011 list at #27.
