Just writing, you don’t have to write the whole thing at one time,” he said. “Like [Styx producer] Will [Evankovich] and I, we’ve been writing songs together for, you know, for 10, 15 years. And when we get one that we like, Will’s a lot more organized than I am, but he’ll put it on a hard drive. And so we had amassed a whole bunch of songs.”Shaw explained how real-life experiences impacted the in-progress album. “You’re writing about your experiences in your life and things that you love and enjoy, or things that were hard to go through and that sort of thing,” he said. “So you’re just really just writing a book in little sections like that. And we’ve got a pretty good one going here.”Following their short Vegas run, Styx will embark on a lengthy summer tour with Kevin Cronin of REO Speedwagon and former Eagles guitarist Don Felder. The 40-date trek runs from May 28 to Aug. 24.Watch Styx Perform ‘The Best of Times’ on 1/24/25 in Las VegasStyx, 1/24/25, Venetian Theatre, Las Vegas Set List1. “The Grand Illusion”2. “Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man)”3. “Superstars”4. “Come Sail Away”5. “Miss America”6. “Man in the Wilderness”7. “Castle Walls”8. “The Grand Finale”9. “Rockin’ the Paradise”10. “Too Much Time on My Hands”11. “Lady”12. “Lorelei”13. “Crash of the Crown”14. “The Best of Times”15. “Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)”16. “Mr. Roboto”17. “Renegade”Styx Albums Ranked Come sail away as we rank Styx’s albums, from worst to best.Gallery Credit: UCR Staff
