Hey Rush2112...I can just see Geddy, Alex, and Neil shaking their heads at you!  Just kidding..I like some REO now and then myself.  VH1 Classic recently played the entire first 24 hours of MTV for it's 25 year anniversary.  You wouldn't believe how many times REO were shown!!

Like em very much. Play there best hits often.

No BS, in my teen years in my area they had dances at 3 different hangouts on Friday and Sat night all summer long. One of them was pitsticks lake, The Bub dances and High tides (3 or 4 of my best friends almost lived there) :lol: and REO played at least at 2 maybe all 3? of them a number of times before they had there first hit or two. The main players grew up maybe 30 miles from me.

Never really got to meet any of them but my best friend and I always have thought it was special we got to see em before they hit it big. ;)

Nothing wrong with REO, they wrote some good ballads for the ladies.  Hearbreaking, love, loneliness.  REO,  among other great bands, did their part back in the day to make music worth listening to.  NOTHING LIKE TODAY!!! :(

Yeah they sure did write alot of ballads, but I like some of them.  God but it feels like the only one I ever hear is "I don't want to lose you".
