Several bands that ruled rock radio through the 1980s will team up to launch a pair of U.S. package tours early in the New Year. The first will boast a lineup of Styx, Kansas, and John Waite, while the other will feature the Scorpions, Whitesnake, and Dokken.

Styx, Kansas, and Waite will kick off their tour Jan. 28 in Orlando, Fla., although, Styx and Kansas will play a one-off show together Jan. 22 in Pensacola, Fla. Their 13-date tour together is slated to wind down Feb. 16 in La Crosse, Wis.

Styx also has a trio of shows on its schedule through the end of the year, and one other solo show in January. The band will perform Dec. 27-28 in Lake Tahoe, Nev., and Dec. 29 in Anaheim, Calif., as well as Jan. 18 in Fort Worth, Texas.

German rock veterans the Scorpions will take Whitesnake and Dokken along for a ride that begins Jan. 29 in Jacksonville, Fla. That 20-show tour will last through a Feb. 28 show in Rosemont, Ill.
