Dear
Aunt Suzanne,
Thank
you and Uncle Dennis so very much for an amazing evening at
Naperville's Last Fling! You looked absolutely beautiful and
Uncle Dennis never sounded better. Thanks also for being so
kind to the kids and our friends - it was such a big treat for them!
I
wanted to know what you and Uncle Dennis thought of the Spa Girl
Parties products? Did you have a chance to use them yet?
I promise you that you will fall in love with the fabulously
scented sugar scrubs, smooth and silky body butters and other
delicious bath treats! You will have to let me know.

Thanks
again and we will see you soon
Love,Deana

Dear
Deana,
I
fully enjoyed the entire line of Spa Girl Products. In
particular my favorites are the body butter, manicure in a jar and my
most favorite is the body scrub. Uncle Dennis says that it
makes my skin softer and I love the fact that I only have to use one
product in the shower to get a scrub, moisturizer and scent all in
one!
The
coconut fragrance is my favorite. It reminds me of our house in
Hawaii. People have come up to me and asked me what perfume I
use and I'm happy to tell them that it's the Spa Girl Coconut scent.
Then manicure in a jar is a time saver for someone like me who is
always on the go and it helps my manicure last longer. The body butter
is so rich that I apply it to my hands and legs before I put
on my hosiery to avoid snags. I
would recommend these products over any other pricey products that I
have used and let me tell you I've tried them all.
Thanks
for introducing me to these great products. I've put your logo and
link in my column for any fans that would like to check out these
awesome products
Love,
Aunt
Suzanne
I have tried many times to order Boom
Child CD and have yet to be able to purchase it. Please tell me
where I can purchase this CD. This is the only CD we do not have but
have tried to get.
Any help you can offer would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Lori
Dear Lori,
The only other
place I can suggest is e-bay.
If there are any fans out there
who know where to purchase this CD, please let us know.
Suzanne
Dennis, I grew up with your music here
in Malaysia and I'll be traveling to New York in June. So my wife and
I will be catching your show there on the 5th.
See you then
Adrian
Dear Adrian,
We are all looking
forward to the BB King show. Hope to see you there!
Suzanne
Bonjour les amis !! Dennis &
Suzanne,
I'm happy to see you soon in Quebec. I already
reserved my tickets for 6 & 8 June: Gatineau and Trois-Rivières.
It will be great in acoustic performance. Thanks for visit us again.
You are a member of our big family in Quebec.
Gaétan
Dear Gaetan,
Thanks for your
support of Dennis' music. We are looking forward to visiting
our friends and family in Quebec. See ya soon!
Suzanne
Just a quick comment. Thank you
for the wonderful performance in Portsmouth, Ohio on April 18th.
I have been a Styx fan for most of my life, having grown up listening
to your music. It was a thrill to finally here your music
live. I was particularly delighted to hear Castle Walls, as
that's perhaps my favorite Styx song and I heartily agree that Grand
Illusion was the best Styx album ever. More than anything I want to
thank you for your music and for sharing your talents with the
world. It was truly special and memorable to share an evening
with you in our little corner of the world and I hope you enjoyed
your time in Portsmouth.
Jay
Dear Jay,
Thanks. We had
a great time in Portsmouth and hope to return again soon!
Suzanne
Is the us version of 100
years from now available?
Greg
Dear Greg,
It is available at
most Best Buys and also I tunes and on our website.
Suzanne

Washington, DC area
Rich

you for your inquiry.

tour dates.

Hi Suzanne & Dennis,
Last year
we were invited to an AMERICAN IDOL birthday party, with stage ,Mic
,amps,and jumbo speakers where no gifts were allowed but a song was
required
to sing (1 per family ).
My 5 1/2 year old son, Danny, practiced
singing a song he said he loved. I guess we parents have more
influence than we know. I guess I've played COME SAIL AWAY quite
often because that's the song HE chose. He did an amazing job and can
you imagine the wreck I was while listening .
Thanks for the memories & Happy
Holidays..
Tommy
Dear Tommy,
As
a parent, wife, sister and daughter of performers, I understand the
waiting and praying on the side lines.
I'm sure you're son was
wonderful. He also has great taste in music.
Suzanne
I saw you in Blue Ash, Ohio in August
of 2007, you were GREAT. Is there any chance you will be playing in
Blue Ash or near Cincinnati, for that matter, any time soon?
Thanks,
Dennis
Dear Dennis,
Thank you for your kind words and support of Dennis career.
Please keep checking our website for new tour dates.
Suzanne
Hi, I'm living in Germany and I'd like
to know if there's a chance for me to buy something at the De Young
store and ship it to Germany. I know that it's possible to type a
German address when I want to check out in the store... BUT in this
store you don't sell Suzanne's book. :( And that's what I'd like to
order, Suzanne's book and the "Dennis De Young and the Music of
Styx with Live Symphony Orchestra" DVD.
Please, let me know
what I can do.
All the best and merry Christmas
from Germany !
Anika
Dear Anika,
Sorry that you are having trouble ordering merchandise from our
site. I am forwarding your e-mail to our web server. He
will be able to help you on your order.
Happy New Year!
Suzanne

Saw
Dennis & Company at Rib America in Indy. Great show. He still has
the "pipes"!! Members of the band were
top notch and did a
great performance.
I am very impressed by 38 years of marriage!
Best of Luck in years ahead.
Thanks for the great music!
Larry
Dear
Larry,
Thank you for your kind words and support of Dennis'
music.
Suzanne
I
never thought I would get to see Dennis perform again. It was a
thrill to see him in Indy at
Rib America. In 1978, I purchased
a limited edition Pieces of Eight album.
Instead of black
vinyl, the album itself is the same picture as the album cover.
I brought it hoping to have Dennis sign it. Of course the place
was packed and I never got
close to the stage. What are the
chances of having this signed.
Thanks.
Jack
A Dennis fan since 75
Dear
Jack,
Please send your album cover only with a SAS envelope to:
Please
allow 6-8 weeks for return.
Suzanne
My
wife, Melissa and I celebrated our 17th anniversary, which is August
31st, by attending your
show in Indianapolis on Saturday, August 30th
at the Rib America Festival. You and Suzanne are
an inspiration
and a testament to true love.
We also saw you the last time you
were here in 2004, and it seems like you just get better and better.
This time was a bit different though, as we stood behind the
fence backstage, along the canal and
watched you take the stage and
deliver yet another stellar performance.
Your voice is still
amazing, the band is tight as ever and the sound was perfect!
We yelled "Don't
Let It End" as you were taking the stage,
but I don't think you heard us. Nevertheless, the weather,
the
atmosphere, the crowd, and the music made for a perfect celebration
for us. Let me just say,
there were a few hundred of us up and
down the canal who were singing along to every song!
Thanks
for the perfect evening and continued success. Please don't
wait another 4 years to
come back to Indy!!
DON'T LET IT END!
Tim
Dear
Tim,
Congratulations to you and your wife on your 17th Wedding
Anniversary. Thank you for your kind
words and support of Dennis'
music.
We hope to return soon!
Suzanne
Dennis.
It was awesome to see you at ribfest in indy. You did an awesome
job. I got one of your playlists from the show. i was hoping you
could sign it if i mailed it to you.
We want to put a picture of you
we took in with it and frame. We have other concert items and we like
to frame them.
Its just our little fun wall we have.. please let me
know. thank you.
Steve
Dear
Steve,
Thank you.
Please send what ever you want Dennis
to sign with a SAS envelope to:
Please
allow 6-8 weeks for return.
Also please note that anything
sent after Oct. 1st will not be returned until Jan of 09,due to our
heavy touring schedule.
Suzanne
I
was in the regular Army back in 1987-1991 during Desert Storm, the
events of September 11, 2001 drew me back into the Army, I
re-enlisted December 7, 2001.
I remember back in the 90's that
there were two different DJ mixes for "Show me the way", if
at all possible I'd like to purchase both mixes as they bring fond
memories of the days gone by.
Thank you,
SGT Keith
Dear
Keith,
Thank you for defending our country! We do not have a
license to sell "Show Me The Way." The only
suggestion I can make is to check e-bay or Amazon.com.
As for the
DJ mix of "Show Me The Way," perhaps one of Dennis'
fans checking out this site can be of help to you?
ANY FANS
HAVE A COPY OF DJ MIX..."SHOW ME THE WAY?"
Please help Keith out.
Suzanne
I'm
looking to purchase the original version of desert moon with the song
boys will be boys on it is there any place I can go to buy it .
Thank
You, Glenn
Dear
Glenn,
I would suggest e-bay or Craig's List.
Suzanne
Hi
Suzanne, I want to say Thanks for the music and the good times + I
need to know ¿where can I find the lyrics of Boys will be
boys?
Alex
Dear
Alex,
Thank you. I'm not sure, but again I would suggest e-bay or
Craig's List.
Suzanne
Hey
Suzanne and Dennis,
Just caught you at the Jacksonville Landing
in Florida. Thanks for the great memories. I stopped by
to ask you Suzanne, if Dennis remembered playing a place called
Knight's Palace back in Mt. Prospect, IL. You said he did and
then in the concert he went on to say he met you at Prospect High
School?
I also remember Styx playing there after a
"walk-a-thon". Yes, we're going back a lot of
years!!! Did you graduate Prospect?? Growing up with Styx
was great!
Again, thanks for getting to Jacksonville!
Cindy
Dear
Cindy,
Thank you for supporting Dennis' career throughout the
years. Yes, we both remember a place called 'Alices.' Dennis
and I were married and our daughter was about a year old, when the
band played this club.
I think you might have misunderstood,
Dennis and I met at a Mendel Catholic High School dance. Mendel
was an all boys school at that time. I attended an all girls
catholic High School. Dennis attended a co-ed public High
School. Hope this clears up the confusion.
It was very nice
meeting you!
Suzanne
I'd
like to know why I cannot find "The Grand Illusion" and
other Styx albums remastered? Is this in the works, still? It seems
like this would have
been available ages ago, but I can't find any.
Thanks in advance!
Steve
Dear
Steve,
Universal Music owns the masters of most recorded Styx
music. I would suggest calling them to find out where to
purchase the albums or CD'S
that you are looking for. If all
else fails try Amazon or E-Bay.
Suzanne
I
just wanted to say a "BIG THANK YOU" to Dennis and his Band
for such a superb performance at the Jacksonville Landing on
10/11/08. The show was mind blowing.
Thank you
Best
Regards
Vineet
Dear
Vineet,
You're very welcome. We all had a great time!
Suzanne
I
happened onto Styx by accident. In '83 my parents got us cassettes
for Christmas. I got Motley Crue, and my brother got Kilroy. Without
listening we decided to trade.
He now has an eternal concussion from
the head banging, and I have everything you have ever recorded. Can't
wait for "100 Years" to come out in the US.
Just wanted to
say thanks for all the great music over the years.
Brian
Dear
Brian,
You're very welcome. Great story, I hope your
brother has recovered?
Suzanne
I
pray that you all have a safe and enjoyable time while in Germany! We
will miss you guys back here in the states!
Your fan in
Virginia, Gary
Dear
Gary,
Thank you!
Suzanne
Will
Dennis ever come to England to tour?
David
Dear
David,
Hopefully?
Suzanne
I
am just writing to invite you and your family to dinner in Findlay,
Ohio (Flag City USA) anytime that you might be driving past our great
city. I have followed you and your bands since the mid 70's. The last
concert I went to of yours was this summer in Cleveland Ohio at the
rib off. You were Great. Any time that your withing 150 mile of
me I try and attend.
Thanks for listening. Pete... PS I was the
guy standing in the 3rd row 3rd seat to your right singing all the
songs with you.
Peter
Dear
Peter,
Thanks for the invite and the e-mail! We hope to be seeing
you again in 2009!
Suzanne
Dennis
and Suzanne,
Congratulations on your Jeff Award, it is always
great to see you receive all the recognition that you deserve. Next
week Karen and I will be celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and
the party will include music, many of your songs as well as our
wedding song, Truely, sung by Lionel Ritchie.
The most recent
song you wrote for Suzanne, Breathe Again, will be part of the music
selection, I hope you don't mind but after the three thank you's I
will play the remainder of this song as it reflects a great deal of
how I feel for this lady that has put up with all my crap for all
these years, and although I know this is an old saying, behind the
success of a man always stand a great lady. I hope you guys have
a great trip to Germany, we know the audiences will be glad to see
and hear you sing.
Take care and again congratulations on your
award.
Paul
& Karen
Dear
Paul,
Happy 25th Anniversary to you and your wife. She
sounds like a very special lady. Have a great party and don't
forget to dance with your wife!
Thank you for your kind words and
support of Dennis' career
Suzanne
Congrats
on the Jeff, y'all! Well done. Well deserved.
Kathy
Dear
Kathy,
Dennis was so honored to receive this award that when we
brought it home there were actually 3 in our bed that night...Dennis,
Jeff and me!
