And as for the newer guys, I have read your comments bout older music and you know more bout older groups than you have let on. So look forward to quizzes bout the classics this time around. Till then come on guys there are 6 Styx answers (points) up for grabs.

By the way HS: you have plenty of “Cool” Cred left with me. Which combined with $1.25 will get you a cuppa at a “cheap” place.
