In Concert: Styx The concert season rolled into full swing with the arriv.il of Styx, that group from Chicago that used () play at everyone ' s high school dances . They ' ve since graduated to bigger and better things, and proved this to the crowd gathered in the ACC on October 4th. Opening the evening was Ian Hunter, who ' s brand of rock pleased the audience, especially with such songs as his tribute to the Golden Age of Rock and Roll . Also a definite favorite was Cleveland Rocks , where 1 everyone had the chance to participate- in chanting several phrases (along with the ever-popular Disco Sucks ). An encore was demanded, and Hunter came back with All the Young Dudes , which had been made popular in his Mott the Moople days. Then the stage ' was set for the Grand Illusion - Styx. They performed some of their old favorite ' s, like Lady , Fooling Yourself , and Sweet Madame Blue ' , and introduced the audience to a few songs such as Babe , from their new Cornerstone album. A drum solo highlighted Renegade , and Styx then ended the show with Come Sail Away . The excitement of the evening had the crowd calling for an encore-, and Styx responded with a song that paid tribute- to the queen of the Unite-el States - Miss America .
