Styx is hitting the road with REO Speedwagon and .38 Special.
Classic rock fans will have an opportunity to tap into a recession-relieving concert with the 2009 Can't Stop Rockin' tour, featuring REO Speedwagon, Styx and 38 Special. Ticket prices will be available for as low as $13.50 in most markets.
Presented by VH! Classic and Rock Band, the tour begins May 13 in Albuquerque, N.M. In acknowledgement of the tour, Styx and REO Speedwagon teamed up to record a new single, “Can’t Stop Rockin’,” co-written by REO Speedwagon’s Kevin Cronin and Styx’s Tommy Shaw. “Can’t Stop Rockin’” makes its radio debut in March and will be available for download.
In a prepared statement, Shaw called the tour a 'rock 'n roll stimulus package." REO and Styx toured together nine years ago on the Arch Allies tour. Tickets will be on sale through a variety of outlets, including Ticketmaster, tickets.com and livenation.com, depending on the date. American Express early onsales opportunities will be available for most tour dates.
The tour has also teamed up with I Love All Access, a division of Front Line Management, to offer a variety of VIP ticket packages. REO are managed by Front Line, Styx by Alliance Artists, and 38 by Vector Management. All three acts are booked by Creative Artists Agency.
