STYX TO ROCK HORSESHOE CASINO & HOTEL
An event you don’t want to miss – Friday, April 10
(Bossier City, La.) - Horseshoe Casino & Hotel will bring legendary rock band, Styx, in concert on Friday, April 10 to the Riverdome.
Since the 70’s, Styx has been hailed as one of the greatest arena rock bands of all time, and now, Horseshoe guests will experience their progressive rock tunes in a special performance. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets on sale for $50 & $60 and seating is reserved. Purchase tickets at www.riverdome.com, 888-512-SHOW (7469) or the Horseshoe Gift Horse® Gift Shop. Patrons must be age 21 or older to attend.
Some bands, from their very creation, are destined for stardom, and one would be hard pressed to argue that Styx – taking their name from Greek mythology – was one of the premier bands of the 1970s, even setting history as the first band to have four back-to-back triple platinum albums.
Styx would reunite in 1990 with their latest effort "Show Me The Way", but the reunion proved short as the band members instead opted for solo careers. Six years later, the group would reunite for a tour, minus John Panozzo who died in July 1996. Todd Sucherman replaced Panozzo, and the tour was a smashing success by all accounts. In fact, securing Styx concert tickets was a challenge for fans as all shows sold out in minutes.
Styx followed their reunion tour with the live album "Return To Paradise" in 1997, and the band was introduced to a whole new generation when their songs were used in such popular shows as "South Park" and "Freaks and Geeks". Styx went on to release several more albums, including "Cyclorama" (2003), "Come Sail Away: The Styx Anthology" (2004), and "The Complete Wooden Nickel Recordings" (2006). (Styx official website)
