STYX, Ted Nugent & REO Speedwagon / Midwest Rock-N-Roll Express Tour

Rock Legends Join Forces for One Show in Big Flats, NY


Friday, July 6th, Rock Legends STYX – REO Speedwagon and Ted Nugent join forces for one incredible show on the Summer Stage at Tag’s, Route 352, Big Flats, NY.

STYX – Tommy Shaw, James “JY” Young, Lawrence Gowan, Todd Sucherman and Ricky Phillips (along with the occasional surprise appearance of original bassist Chuck Panozzo), have performed more live since ’99 than all of the previous years of its career combined. Two Super-Bowl appearances, Pollstar Box Office chart-topping tours with Def Leppard, Journey, Boston, REO Speedwagon, Bad Company (to name a few), two more studio albums and no end in sight, STYX continues to conquer the planet, one venue at a time.
Styx hits include: “Lady”, “Come Sail Away,” “Fooling Yourself,” “Blue Collar Man,” “Renegade,” “Too Much Time On My Hands,” and many others.

Formed in 1967, signed in 1971 and fronted by iconic vocalist Kevin Cronin since 1972, REO Speedwagon has – for decades – been a confounding blend of consistency and change. They rode in station wagons, going from tiny gigs to even tinier gigs, just to get the REO name out there. Later they rode the top of the charts with a RIAA certified 22 million albums sold in the U.S. and 40 million sold around the globe, with a string of gold and platinum records and international hit singles. The 9-times certified Hi Infidelity remains a high water mark for rock bands.
REO Speedwagon’s hits include: “Ridin The Storm Out,” “Keep On Loving You,” “Take It On The Run,” “Can’t Fight This Feeling,” “Keep The Fire Burnin,” “Roll With The Changes,” and many more.

Ted Nugent aka the “Nuge,” “The Motor City Madman,” and the most recently “Uncle Ted” is a guitarist from Detroit, Michigan, originally gaining fame as a member of the Amboy Dukes, and recently gaining fame (and notoriety) for his support for hunting and conservative political views. Some of his best known songs include “Stranglehold,” “Free For All,” “Dog Eat Dog,” “Wang Dang Sweet Poontang,” “Cat Scratch Fever,” “Motor City Madman,” “Great White Buffalo,” and “Wango Tango.” Nugent gained acclaim for his raucous, intense live music, and still tours frequently today.
Attracting attention for his outspoken statements on issues ranging from gun politics to biodiversity, Nugent has been a regular guest on such programs like Larry King, Howard Stern, and Politically Incorrect.
