I can only say that I agree that Gary added fire and pizazz to the band, as well as half the song writing and all the kick ass guitar playing that I love. When...

That's preposterous! Back in 1979, a Lennon-McCartney reunion would have been a multi-BILLION dollar business venture. REO may not be the Beatles, but even...

I respect Julie's opinion as well, but agree that she just doesn't know what she's talking about. Just because Gary is aging doesn't mean that people would not...

I kinda figured that! That's my point. Fans like us who know the band members and know about their particular situation couldn't help but call in to ask "Is...
Julie, I'm not being sarcastic at all. Questions about Gary Richrath are by far THE most asked question by callers to our station when REO comes to town. They...

Julie: I understood what you said the first time and I do agree that most people don't even who these guys (REO) are - only the older fans know who Gary is, ...

... I agree. Gary's guitar playing was the main reason many fans saw REO in the 1970's, not Kevin's (or Mike Murphy's) vocals. Granted, Kevin sounded like a...
I definitely would pay BIG BUCKS for concert tickets to see REO with Gary Richrath, the man who wrote the classics "Like You Do", "Ridin' The Storm Out" and...
I agree on the point that other classic rock acts missing key members are still out there selling tickets. But REO has had to call on the likes of Styx to fill...
I'm just curious... where is everyone from? I'm from Canton IL, which is really close to Peoria, Gary's hometown. I have heard that he does make a few...
Aerosmith has been filling arena's just fine without KISS, I still don't understand why they did it....

Hey Julie, I think it would make a pretty big difference with the fans that really like Gary and would like to see him back with the band, (us in particular). ...
... Wow.... tough question.... Over the years, I've seen a lot of turn- over in this band. I admire each of the guys for the contributions they've made to that...
You guys who keep talking about how long you've been fans, and how much you think Gary will change the crowd size, are missing my point. We are the minority. ...
