Just grab some of your favorite brew and follow along during a Styx show (or four...)!
If you don't drink the alcoholic type stuff, soda works well as a sugar/caffeine buzz can be just as
much fun as, if not more than, an alcohol buzz. Keep in mind that 1 drink= 1 sip/gulp/whatever. Only finish a whole drink if it says "finish the bottle". Well, without further ado, here are the rules...

Styx tunes= 1 drink and wave at those people displaying
