_Laurie_ Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I saw Styx and REO waaaaaay back in the 70's and then again a couple of years ago...They sounded great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Saw Styx and REO two summers ago and got to sing on stage with them. Styx was awesome. REO sucked. But I guess if you were actually an REO fan you might enjoy them, so I'm not really the best judge there, because I just don't like their music to begin with. But yeah, Styx rocked. In the most awesomely cheesy way possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah when I saw Styx they definitely outplayed REO..and Styx was opening for them...Styx played much longer too...REO was okay too...the lead singer talked waaaaaay too much..and I was a little disappointed that they didn't play Golden Country..that is one of my favorites by them...oh well..

Lucky Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 REO was never the same after Gary Richrath left. Cronin left to his own devices wasn't a good thing ... the band turned sappy. But in their heyday ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkstones Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 REO did a couple songs I like -- Take It On The Run and Keep On Loving You, but other than that, I could take 'em or leave 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
