This is fabulous. Watched it many many times. My brother and me are hooked. These youngsters are having a great time. There parents must be so proud. Tommy your wife is so pretty. I watch flipping out as well. Lol. I was wondering who the pretty lady from the audence playing a fiddle is.and the youngster with the violen... Pretty darn good. And yes im a big fan of stix. Your the best. Keep rocking. Mindy
Tommy Shaw is a bad ass. Those young musicians will remember that night the rest of their lives and some will go on to fame of their own. That jam will be hard to top though
These talented young musicians are lucky to be a part of such a performance of a rock legend. This is bar none one of the coolest things I've seen and heard. Music history in the making.
Harold Hatton I agree with you but, the lucky is Tommy Shaw to be able to be accompanied by these wonderful young musicians in this day and time when so many of our nations schools have done away with music classes and put that money into the overly funded football programs.
It is truly hard enough to become known enough in the rock and roll scene, The real legends step down and get involved in our kids Education through music. Tommy Shaw Loved you before but even though this video was recorded long ago I am happy to have the privilege to see you doing this for our kids!
Tommy has always been a favorite musician. I came of age in the 70s when they were supremely popular. Loved him then, love him now! He's a beautiful man, inside and out. What a gift he has shared with these young people - memories for a lifetime. I hope, hope, hope he'll do another concert with the Contemporary Youth Orchestra because I'd get tickets and myself there any way I could!! ❤️🙏🤞
Many have commented about how awesome this must be for these young musicians. True. It is equally awesome for Tommy to play his music with such a great orchestra and choir behind him. A thrill of a lifetime for all!
Sue Frasik Just think, That young talented violinist will keep Tommy and STYX going into the next generation, how awesome is that! Smart intelligent man, and all he did was give his time Bravo
I was reflecting back to when I first heard this song in the day, the angst of youth & whatnot. In stark contrast-seeing this video gives me so much Hope .... Well done !!!
I was waiting for Tommy to get out of his chair and make that guitar sing.... I hope those orchestral players really appreciated who they were with that day. I loved the impromptu violin solo
Just what i needed on a Monday morning in January, the orchestra is fabulous, the choir and Tommy with his depth of musical ideas, very satisfying music with breakfast, very relevant, deep meanings with an exhilirating touch, always loved Styx, but this adds a mixture of dimention, wonderful!!!!! Terri Leckner, Montreal, Canada
I grew up with Styx and their influence was always phenomenal and now Tommy passes along that awesome inspiration to a whole new generation like never before!! And that young ladys solo with the violin is just epic. Adds a whole new depth to this already classic hit!!!
Tommy Shaw is truly one of the last of the major Rock God's... His talent is depthless and it might be hard for those kids to get who they're jamming with...but what a privilege.
I'm a High School Teacher, old guy, and radio dj. This is TOO wonderful. The fact you're from Cleveland (where the girl I married 32 years ago from, on a beach on Guam) only makes it better. Good onya, Deputy Dainty!
70s classic rock could have been our last great musical renaissance. Praying for a new one to arrive. Please bring back rock and roll!!! Society needs this!!!!!
Rock isn't dead,it just changed with the times. I was at the biggest rock show in almost 2 years Saturday and saw the Intderruptors, Weezer, Fall Out Boy, and Greenday, and they rocked the stadium to the floor ever bit as well as people like Nugent, Aerosmith, Sammy Hagar and Deep Purple did at stadium shows I saw in the 70s and 80s. The problem is people our age closed their brains to new music in 1985 and only opens it once in a blue moon. Those playing rock today sound a little different but as Greenday who aren't spring chickens showed, the music has the same origins and we heard Bohemian Rapsody as they took the stage and they covered Kiss I wanna Rock n Roll all nite, as well as a few chords from Highway to Hell to kick off Basket Case. I refuse to be that guy who claims nothing good has been written in 30 years. It's written for the kids and if you like it it's a bonus, and if you don't they are still going to be loving it. Same tunes for the past 50 years? Not everyday at least for me.
Looks like Tommy's having the time of his life performing with such talented musicians. They'll all will remember this moment for the rest of their lives.
Jayna Dixon Life Of Fame indeed lmao, this entire concert was recorded and released a week or so ago, if you're interested... I was in the viola section for this show :p
As an alumni of Performing Arts HS the movie "Fame" did indeed exist. :) I was a violin student way back in the 70's in the original building/school when PA and M&A were sister schools but separate. Now, combined. But Performing Arts on west 46th was an amazing school, from which came many famous musicians, dancers and actors of the past 70 years. Several teachers were in the original movie production of Fame, including my orchestra conductor, Jonathan Strasser. I wish all kids who have a love for the performing arts could have that kind of access.
Joy overload ! The only thing close to this I've ever seen was when Fleetwood Mac had the USC marching band come on stage with them in a live performance of "Tusk" on "The Dance" that was good, this is better He's brought so much joy and life memories to these young people who spent many long hours learning to play.
You guys are an amazing bunch of musicians! This must have been such a thrill to be able to play with one of the absolute best rockers of our time, Tommy Shaw. He is an incredible songwriter, singer and guitar player!!! Congratulations on such an incredible event!!
@xrmweho I have and have always paid for healthcare. I paid for my kids, all four, healthcare as well. Where are you going with this and what's their musical talent got to do with healthcare?
@ Deputy Dainty (and your dad) AWESOME! I'm an old head as they say and went to the Paradise Theater tour concert in Pittsburgh when they were here back when I was a teenager in high school. They were awesome then and you kids jamming with them are awesome as well. I absolutely luv it when bands from my day do concerts with orchestra and for it to be a youth one is just icing on the cake. I watched some of the actually show clips as well and just so cool to see everyone get into it. So happy for you to get this experience in life, such a rare and precious night. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Tommy Shaw for sharing your famous talent to those highschool students! What you did will be incredible for years to come! They nor I will never forget the priceless gift that you inspired 🤩‼️
I'm so jealous of these kids. I would've LOVED to play with Tommy Shaw while I was still in band. I would still love to play with Tommy Shaw, or rather sing since my vocals are much more practiced than any of the instruments I know how to play. That would be a dream come true!
THAT...is thee most awesome thing I've seen so far in June of 21.!! I saw another one from this concert. OMG...This one's better. Sweet solo young lady.
I walked in the Greenday Hella Mega tour Saturday night wearing a Styx concert T and the people working security wanted it. Lol BTW that tour last through September, and while all the bands were pumped to get back on stage two years after the show was scheduled for their first show back was special but anyone wanting a rock show there ya go. And I sew Styx twice a year so they are put there too
I have loved this music since I was young...now my sons band plays this song and they do an amazing job...but this was so special , absolutely made my day...what a gift to these kids...I wonder how this came together...great job...and my crush on Tommy Shaw is still intact! Lol
CHILLS!!! This is amazing! That violinist behind Tommy is awesome. Haven't seen Styx live in almost 20 years. Gonna catch them in Phoenix in July. Bring back Dennis!
How is it possible that the audience is still sitting through this ??? It's unfathomable !! There would be NO WAY I could be still in my seat if I was there !!! I'm actually standing, jamming in my living room while holding my phone. My dog already knows I'm crazy (in a good way). 😉
Tommy Shaw is great! He doesn’t even need Styx! He was always playing second fiddle in that band for some crazy reason. I thought he was the main talent in Styx and this video proves it!! And it’s 40 years later and he hasn’t aged hardly! Has he found the fountain of youth? He looks the same! Incredible! Great Singer and player!
th-cam.com/video/uBi61pgDUP8I/w-d-xo.html am a DIEHARD Styx fan. DUDE!!! DeYoung had one of the greatest voices ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHAW IS AWESOME!! but he CANT SING FOR SHIT COMPARED TO DENNIS!
Second fiddle? Second fiddle to who? Where do you get that from? Ever since he joined the band he literally split the lead vocal duties with Dennis and wrote like half the music if not more, not to mention his iconic harmonies on everything. He's always been the one front and center lasting live and equally the main attraction with Dennis as well as Styx itself. How do you think he's been able to tour under the Styx name with no other original member other than JY? I wish people would only write things they know about.
Ever since he joined the band he literally split the lead vocal duties with Dennis REALLY!!??Want to add up the songs that dennis sings lead and compare it to tommy's leads!! You will see many more songs have Dennis as the lead. ALL THEIR CLASSICS!! And no not mr. roboto!LADY!!
Most of Styx's best songs were Tommy on lead. And after Dennis left (was fired) and Tommy came back, he took over as the defacto leader of the band. That's been 25 years now. No one can say he has been playing second fiddle and really be taken too seriously.
Outstanding, incredible performance and memory for all, especially for the young orchestra and chorus, conductor, audience…and Tommy, what a trooper!❤❤❤❤ Just wish I was there😊
BLOODY AWESOME...ALL OF IT! IT WOULD BE SO AWESOME TO HAVE TOMMY SHAW annnnnnd STEVE WALSH AS MY VOCAL COACHES...YES...BOTH! THESE KIDS ARE SO BLESSED!
Watching those kids playing rock n roll makes me smile and gives me hope for the future 😂. The girl violinist with a dream come true moment, slayed it. 😂
Outstanding! It must have been such a thrill for those young people. And especially for the young woman who played the violin next to Shaw. Great video! Kudos to your mom for filming.
I actually had to look up where this was from- most high school bands are not at this level. It is terrific. A lot of hard work I'm sure. Even more glad I grew up with your music, Tom.
I'm at the age, where it's clear that I will never have children, and I've come to terms with that...but if this were my daughter, I would be so proud, I would literally melt. Great job kids...may you all find success.

Tommy Shaw is a bad ass. Those young musicians will remember that night the rest of their lives and some will go on to fame of their own. That jam will be hard to top though
Their parents knew who he was!
And so will Tommy. To play his music with a full orchestra and choir behind him is a tribute in its own right.
These talented young musicians are lucky to be a part of such a performance of a rock legend. This is bar none one of the coolest things I've seen and heard. Music history in the making.
I seconded that
Yes indeed!
Harold Hatton I agree with you but, the lucky is Tommy Shaw to be able to be accompanied by these wonderful young musicians in this day and time when so many of our nations schools have done away with music classes and put that money into the overly funded football programs.
That's a very good point as the orchestra made the band sound better.
Tommy is blessed to be with them.
Remarkable
It is truly hard enough to become known enough in the rock and roll scene, The real legends step down and get involved in our kids Education through music. Tommy Shaw Loved you before but even though this video was recorded long ago I am happy to have the privilege to see you doing this for our kids!
Paul Aschenbrener is this not the most awesome stuff! That young violinist will always love This music!
He loves the girl playing fiddle. He had a short solo with her the prior year.
I realize you had written this 3 years hence, nevertheless, you have a beautiful delivery.
Blessings.
Sincerely,
Me.
No kidding...how cool is this?
@@petermoodie6902Hence refers to the future...you could not have made a poorer word choice.
Always a safe bet to work within your normal vocabulary.
The conductor at the 3 minute mark was living her best life...good for her!!
Yes, Liza is quite a character
Same conductor/director from the 2006 live cd/dvd Styx and the Contemporary Youth Orchestra Live. The collaboration was her brainchild.
My favourite STYX song with such a great twist. These highschool students bring a new life and style to one of the most iconic bands ever
Tears of joy watching this one. What a wonderful collaboration. Tommy Shaw, you're the best!!!

I was reflecting back to when I first heard this song in the day, the angst of youth & whatnot. In stark contrast-seeing this video gives me so much Hope .... Well done !!!
This has got to be my favorite recording of this song. The solo violinist was jamming right along with Tommy! WOW!!!
I was waiting for Tommy to get out of his chair and make that guitar sing.... I hope those orchestral players really appreciated who they were with that day. I loved the impromptu violin solo

The violinist was AWESOME! I hope she went on to have many successes. Tommy. awesome, as usual. You are great!
Could you imagine being one of those kids, and here you are playing great music with...Tommy Shaw!? Wow, this was an epic performance
I would love to have been a part of this...even if it was just rolling out cables!!!
Really? Other than learning Styx songs I seriously doubt Tommy Shaw meant anything to them.
I agree. I remember playing Mama and Papa's, and Beatles songs in band. They meant nothing to me then.
Tommy Shaw is truly one of the last of the major Rock God's... His talent is depthless and it might be hard for those kids to get who they're jamming with...but what a privilege.
I'm a High School Teacher, old guy, and radio dj. This is TOO wonderful.

They will all will?
If English is not your native language, you need to develop some pride in how you present yourself to strangers.
@@Sam-qm1ioyour comment was unnecessary and rude. It counters the fun vibes of the video.
I LOVE it so amazing Tommy you are the king of Rock the youthorchestra amazing
Tommy Bolin .. Dreamer
It is a joy to listen to such wonderfully talented young people engage with Tommy's great song!
For anyone who wished the High School life of Fame existed! This is really awesome.

Tommy Shaw you are the man! What a gift you gave all of those kids and all of us. Thank you so much.
Tommy Shaw rocks...I've come back to watch this several times. Love it!!!
I love seeing how much making this music gives joy to the music makers, as well as the audience.

This is so cool to see these young people jamming with Tommy Shaw and Styx classic rock has a great future
PERFECT EXAMPLE AS TO WHY AND IMPERATIVE THAT MUSIC PROGRAMS SHOULD BE BROUGHT BACK INTO SCHOOL CURRICULUMS !!!!
Christy S exactly, those young talented artists will keep STYX going into the next generation
Yep..I agree. To much emphasis on sports.
Yeah, I can't remember the last time I used a Parallelogram.
@@mickeygarlock4611 I get it. I never could color inside the lines. 😳
Beautiful. Great work by all. Tommy is a living legend!
Tommy Shaw class act bringing young people to great music and collaboration! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Truly SO very amazing!!! What memories the kids and their parents will have of this!!
I love how the conductor gets into it.
You guys are an amazing bunch of musicians! This must have been such a thrill to be able to play with one of the absolute best rockers of our time, Tommy Shaw. He is an incredible songwriter, singer and guitar player!!! Congratulations on such an incredible event!!
WOW-- HOW Great is that for you.. I worked in a record store in the late 70's and saw Styx in concert... What a wonderful experience for you!!!
I totally loved this! You kids did an awesome job and of coarse I love Tommy Shaw!
Tommy Shaw is incredible. Hero stays achieved.
one of the coolest things ever!
Thanks man! This is the last place I'd expect to find Jaw Tooth himself, love your videos man!
Now this my friends is a music class. 😀😍 Even Amadeus was proud, smiling upon them all. 😇 Beautiful. ❤ Rock me Amadeus! or Tommy😂
The entire orchestra, pupils are super composed and kept their enthusiasm in check, at all times, truly professional.
Those kids make me proud to be an American!
xrmweho In this life you pay your own way! You work if you want something! Makes us responsible for our own lives!

I actually remembered all the lyrics. Tommy Shaw, you're awesome! My brother is 69 so I grew up listening to Styx. Love Damn Yankees too.
Can't believe this, but I just googled Tommy and he is 67!
Yes he is getting older and dragging me right along with him.

Still stunning.

Me too.. Love this
“The best of times....” I’m in that primal sweet spot! Bliss✌️🐨💕😉
Those kids are all young enough to be Tommy's children,....that night they were,....his children in GREAT music.
This is outstanding musical learning and work by those in charge. I wish I could be part of this! Extraordinary!
What an awesome experience for everyone. LOVE IT !!
Tommy Shaw is incredibly fortunate to be around so many young musicians with such great ambition! Kudos to all!!!
So awesome! I wish this was available like Fooling Yourself with the pro recording audio.
Tommy Shaw is great! He doesn’t even need Styx! He was always playing second fiddle in that band for some crazy reason. I thought he was the main talent in Styx and this video proves it!!
And it’s 40 years later and he hasn’t aged hardly! Has he found the fountain of youth? He looks the same! Incredible! Great Singer and player!
Dont forget the Damn Yenkees either. He was an essential part of that band. I wish they would reunite

Brings a smile to your face.
That was awesome!
Excellent. An lost art. Keep up the great Work.
For Tommy to say " I'm only a novice" was classic
Love the cool picking Tommy was doing while the girl was playing.
That student guitarist keeps looking over at Tommy thinking "best moment of my life" lol
Simply awesome. Talk about motivational and inspiring!!!
amazing and beautiful!!!
Tommy Shaw, the man with s riffle gun guitar hero. Riffs are superb quality. You kids enjoy a Jedi Knight bonafide certified musical trooper
Amazing. One of the most underrated performers
Pure magic!
Awesome rendition!
I actually had to look up where this was from- most high school bands are not at this level. It is terrific. A lot of hard work I'm sure. Even more glad I grew up with your music, Tom.
You guys are making my day. wow thanks a lot
Longtime fan of Tommy 's music when he was lead singer of stud & his solo career talented musician & composer!🎸🎤
This performance is trax # 6 of my 38 song long run list. Happy Saturday
⭐ That performance was amazing!
The way he mutes his guitar on the violin is just amazing
I love Tommy Shaw!!!
I'm at the age, where it's clear that I will never have children, and I've come to terms with that...but if this were my daughter, I would be so proud, I would literally melt.
Great job kids...may you all find success.
I cannot stop crying...this was beyond touching.
Tommy Shaw...you are a good man.
Just clearly Awesome!
Amazing!!! I love it!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Man… how awesome would it be to be talented enough to trade solos with Tommy Shaw? 🔥
How wonderful for the kids ..
Holy shit, that girls violin solo....
