More on Glen Burtnik
Description from Wikipedia:
Glen Burtnik is a singer, songwriter, entertainer and multi-instrumentalist, best known as a former member of Styx.
The spelling of his name has changed a few times over the years (born Glenn Burtnick, then changed to Glen Burtnick, and finally spelled with "two N's, no C").
Burtnik appeared in the Broadway production of Beatlemania as Paul McCartney, alongside Marshall Crenshaw, who played John Lennon. He continues his love of The Beatles to this day, with the highly regarded Beatles cover band Liverpool. This band are regular performers at the Fest for Beatles Fans, annually held in the Metroplitan New York City area, Las Vegas and Chicago.
He has written chart-topping hits such as "Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough" for Patty Smyth and Don Henley, "Spirit Of A Boy, Wisdom Of A Man", and "Delicious Surprise", hosted the "School Of Rock" radio show on The Hawk - 105.7 FM, and recorded/toured/collaborated with well-known artists. He has also put together the annual Glen Burtnik's Xmas Xtravaganza for 17 years (as of 2007).
While solo success has been relatively elusive, he did score a minor hit in 1987 with "Follow You," a soaring track off his Heroes and Zeroes album. Unfortunately, follow-up releases have been less successful.
Burtnik and his family were featured on the October 16, 2006 season premier episode of the Discovery Channel show, It Takes a Thief. During the second season of this show, Glen and his family were the "victims" of a staged robbery.
Since 2006, Burtnik has made appearances with ex-Styx bandmate Dennis DeYoung that the pair have sometimes dubbed the "Dennie and Glennie Show".
