Styx with special guest Cheap Trick, Ozarks Amphitheater
Styx was phenomenal. There is just not enough concert time for them to play every song I wanted to hear. Miss America, Man in the Wilderness and Castle Walls were absent but seriously, you’d need a 4 hour concert to satisfy their vast library.
Sorry to say, I was a bit disappointed with Cheap Trick. This was the first time I’ve seen them live and the energy was lacking (my wife commented that the lead singer was sitting down for a stretch!) Also, and maybe intentional, the sound was not as crisp and clean as I would like. They played Dream Police early on and even though we all knew it was the song they were playing, it almost didn’t sound like it. Maybe they had an off night, blame it on the rain, I don’t know. I have to say though, Styx made it worthwhile.
