Rockers Styx -- Tommy Shaw, James Young, Todd Sucherman, Lawrence Gowan, Ricky Phillips and Chuck Panozzo -- performed theatrical concerts at the Pearl in the Palms on Friday and Saturday nights, and contributing photographer Tom Donoghue was onsite at the rock show Friday night for his photo gallery.
Styx, in what was advertised as the first concerts west of the Mississippi this year, performed “The Grand Illusion” and “Pieces of Eight” in their entirety. The group doesn’t plan on performing this show next year, so fans from all over the world were treated to an exclusive showcase.
