I think you can pick those backstage passes up at your local 7/11....Unbelievable. LOL The review for the ST Louis concert was not kind to REO. They said some...
Uh, well, I think generally you have to uh, "do things" for the band, at least, that's what my little sister tells me. Maybe she means wash their cars or...
Here's the St Louis Post-Dispatch review of REO with Styx and Journey in St Louis, Missouri. We'll have our own review soon. -- Kathy, REO-FANS.COM Triple bill...
I, for one, would love to see Gary back in REO, but I honestly don't think it will ever happen. Besides, it would mean sending Dave packing and after being...
Hi, my name is Rich Meyers and I own and run an Internet Radio Station entitled "Rock Of Ages Radio". ROAR plays a variety of the best Rock bands and artists,...
... He has contributed nothing to the band. Gary made REO Special. They haven't been the same since. No matter who thinks who is better...the fact is...REO...
Hi all, Greetings from sunny Birmingham, England, and I've been a fan of REO since I first heard of them in 1981. With reference to this ongoing Gary v Dave...
I don't want to start a big fight, but I also have one question: If Amato is so great, why hasn't HE made it as a solo artist? Where are all the mega hits HE...

Hello, Was there ever a member of REO named Fritz (or Frederick or Fred) Rodden? I've been told he was a member in the 80's, but I can't find any evidence of...

... The REO lineup for the 1980's was: 1978-1988 Kevin Cronin: Lead Vocals; Rhythm and Acoutic Guitars Gary Richrath: Gibson Les Paul Guitars Alan Gratzer:...
Anyone go to the Rochester show? REO really got ripped in the press. For me, the sad thing was seeing the 10,000 seat Blue Cross Arena 1/3 empty. But I guess...

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's a lie! There were 3 singers and Fritz Rodden was not one of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
Hi, someone asked if there was or is a Fritz, Frederick or Fred Rodden in REO Speedwagon. That you couldn't find it. None of those people are in the band. I...
... -->a respectable job, at least. But on stage, he doesn't fit in like Gary did. I don't know if it's a stage presence thing or what, but to me, he's sort...
... No kidding. Cronin's voice was irreparably damaged by decades of drug abuse. He brought it all on himself. You can't snort cocaine for years and not...
Whatever happened to Michael Murphy after he left Speedwagon?...

REO without KC would be the final nail in their coffin. This band ain't Van Halen or AC/DC. REO's sound is so much KC. I don't mean to sound like KC is the...

... WRONG! When somebody mentions the REAL REO Speedwagon, they're thinking about REO's signature hard rockin' songs like "Ridin' the Storm Out," "Golden...
... I don't know if I totally agree with that. I never thought Journey would be able to find someone so close to Steve Perry. I do think if Kevin left, Gary...
First concert I saw of REO was in 5/77 at Bradley Univ. Fieldhouse in Peoria. You Can Tune a Piano..." was the LP being supported. All I can say is - it and...
Heck, I don't mind a ballad or two, as long as the rock and roll is there. That ballad album they put out--listened to it once. OK, so it's agreed, then? We...
Ppl, it seems that we're rapidly running out of real rock and roll. Rush, Van Halen, Foreigner, REO, Journey, Bad Co., etc.--i.e. the real rock bands-- aren't...

Who knows what Michael Murphy's doing these days. He wasn't that good, anyway.... that's just my opinion....
... double? Not a bad idea, but it didn't seem to help Journey very much. They did the old switcheroo and replaced Steve Perry with Steve Augeri. It also...
