Today’s Blimp Time-Hop
36 years ago, Styx brought their Paradise Theatre Tour to Portland! It was a sold out show at the Civic Center on April 19,1981. Paradise Theatre was the biggest hit album ever for Styx, going to number 1. The record went on to be their fourth consecutive multi-platinum. The Tommy Shaw song Too Much Time on My Hands was a number 9 single and remains a staple on WBLM today! We’ve ‘got nothing to do and all day to do it!’
This was the second and last Styx concert ever at the Civic Center.
