A gloomy rainy day turned into the perfect night for rock and roll in Kansas City. Don Felder, Foreigner, and Styx played to a near sell-out crowd at the beautiful Starlight Theatre. It was 4 hours of great classic rock and roll.<\/p>\n

Don Felder and his band opened the show, playing many of the the most loved Eagles songs. The moment he went on stage the crowd was on their feet and you could hear the crowd singing along with nearly every song. Felder played a cut from his new album Road To Forever<\/em>, \u201cYou Don’t Have Me.\u201d The music and lyrics are relevant and it did not sound like a recycled Eagles tune. To the crowds delight, Tommy Shaw and Todd Sucherman joined Don on stage for \u201cHotel California.\u201d The only down side was that the set was too short.<\/p>\n

Foreigner brought their high energy to the stage and again the crowd was on their feet. I\u2019ve heard many people say that it\u2019s not Foreigner without Lou Gramm, but Kelly Hanson is a great singer and performer in his own right. It is still the music of Foreigner and they sounded great as always. The crowd was on their feet the entire set. A nice surprise was Carrolton Missouri High School choir joining them on stage for \u201cI want to know what love is.\u201d You could see the joy on their faces as they sang the chorus.<\/p>\n

The set list and stage set up made Styx performance a welcome change from the predictable set list of past KC shows. It was great to hear \u201cCrystal Ball\u201d on this show, a song missing from their last two Starlight shows. “SuperStars” from the Grand Illusion<\/em> album was also performed for the first time in Kansas City according to JY. Styx is definitely at the top of their game and as long as they are touring, you can bet I\u2019ll be there.<\/p>\n
