This is awesome.

"Joseph Williams and Steve Lukather aka The Dogz of Oz are thrilled to share Toto’s line-up for confirmed appearances in 2024 and beyond. The duo welcome back to the band Greg Phillinganes on keyboards and vocals alongside Shannon Forrest on Drums. The band kicks off a North American tour that features thirty appearances with Journey in arenas alongside 14 headline shows in Biloxi, MS on February 9. That run will wrap on April 29 in Bridgeport, CT. Across June and July, in to early August, the band will stage a headline tour of Europe. For fans in the UK, plans are being worked on now to stage a run of shows in early 2025. Additional appearances across The World will be announced in the coming months."

That's a great line-up. I think this is the most "Toto" they can get under the circumstances, given that touring is not an option for Paich and Steve Porcaro.

In hindsight, I think the band's run in the 2010s was especially great. Bringing back Lenny and Hungate for the 2015 tour was incredible. That line-up was a brilliant cross between original and legitimate Toto, as it were.

Looking forward to this year's tour. Hope they shake up the setlist a bit. Toto usually excel at that.
