My very first rock concert was Styx's Kilroy Was Here Tour in 1983. I was 14. My mom let me go with my friend, also 14, and his older sister who was like 23 at the time. My mom thought the sister would be responsible for us minors at the concert. So we went, and my friend's sister hooked up with her boyfriend and they had different seats, and left us on our own. It was an amazing concert. After the show, we could not find my friend's sister, and walked around the venue for about 1 hour or so, until we found my friend sister, who was quite drunk with her boyfriend, also wasted. He drove himself away, but the sister was too drunk to even get behind the wheel. My friend was a lot bigger and looked older, so he took it upon himself to drive us home. He did like 55 on the freeway LOL. Good times and memories

I'm a big Gowan fan (his solo music) but anytime an iconic band (like Styx) gets a replacement singer it just has that cover band feel. Same with Journey and Foreigner. And there's some bands that have that same cover band vibe when other irreplaceable members are gone. Like KISS and The Rolling Stones.

The band couldn’t believe one guy was going play in front of them and then watched this guy they had never heard of work the crowd like a master. When the rest of the band parted ways with Dennis the first guy they thought of to take his place was Gowan. I think it’s been like 25 years now.

He's a little like me. You can see it! He's moving the camera well. He's got good shots. He's stable. He's a little like me. I remember playing this on the radio. When it came out.. It was Great!
