Hundreds gathered to rock on at the Styx concert Sunday evening.

They performed many of their classic hits including "Come Sail Away" "Renegade" and "Babe." And the band mentioned they were glad to be back in the Big Country.

And the band was also helping a local organization all thanks to Tommy Shaw's daughter, Hannah. The charity "Rock to the Rescue" raised money for the Noah Project here in Abilene.

They were rafeling off a guitar signed by all the members of the band. and Said that the non-profit was an organization that they felt was important to help.

"I found the Noah Project and I was just really, realy impressed by the services that they're providing," said Hannah. "So we are very interested in providing funding to domestic violence shelters and advocacy organizations. We were just thrilled at the opporunity to work with them."

Comments

It's truly frustrating when a concert review can't get the simplest facts correct. Styx did not perform "Babe." They NEVER perform "Babe." Shouldn't your reviewer at least attend the show?
