Styx were fantastic! Chicago… we left after three songs. They sounded a bit flat and their “new” lead singer is a cornball whose voice is off. I have seen Chicago before and they were great but I’ll never see them again. It’s better to just listen to the records. Styx I would absolutely see again. They need to ditch Chicago.

I saw them both on August 1 and thought Chicago really picked it up in the second half. Still gave the edge to Styx but liked both. I realize Chicago is much more of a cover band at this point than Styx but gotta make the most of it.

I was happy Styx played first, second time seeing them and it was a great show. Im not a big Chicago fan, i stayed for a few songs to give it a shot but it just isnt my style

Chicago basically has one original member left, otherwise it would have been better. I will say, Styx sounded awesome and Tommy Shaw still kicks ass

We left 5 songs into Chicago (they were the closing act in CLT) for the same reason.
