  • Styx Live at the Red Robinson Show Theatre
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE OCTOBER 18, 2011 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS STYX LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4 Coquitlam, BC – Spawned from a suburban Chicago basement in the early 70’s, Styx would eventually transform into the virtual arena rock prototype by the late 70’s and into the 80’s due to a fondness for big rockers and soaring power ballads. Their self-titled debut album was released in 1972 followed by Styx II, The Serpent Is Rising and Man of Miracles. And while the albums helped them to build a substantial following locally, Styx failed to break through to the mainstream until a track from their second album, "Lady" started to get substantial airplay in 1974. After the song was issued as a single nationwide, it quickly shot to #6 on the singles chart as Styx II was certified gold. Guitarist Tommy Shaw then joined in 1975 and proved to be the missing piece of the puzzle for the band as most of their subsequent releases throughout the late 70’s earned at least platinum certification and produced such hit singles as "Come Sail Away", "Renegade", "Blue Collar Man" and "Fooling Yourself”. Styx then became one of North America’s top rock acts due to such big hit singles as "Too Much Time on My Hands". It also marked the first time in history that a band released four consecutive triple-platinum albums. A career-encompassing live album, Caught in the Act was issued in 1984 before Styx went on hiatus with the majority of its members pursuing solo projects throughout the remainder of the decade.
