it's just like david gilmour said of pink floyd......he spent his whole adult life building a career playing and contributing to pink floyd the brand and he was not going to walk away from that brand he helped create to become a solo artist living in obscurity. and he was right to do so.
.
These days Dennis may be more like Gilmour.But as Styx and Dennis became more rich and famous,
in the old days,I think Dennis was more like Roger Waters.Full of self importance,telling every one what to do
and become a total prick.The funny thing,Waters quit thinking Floyd wouldn't and couldn't carry on without him.
Water's solo discs were shit and he couldn't sell any tickets.
Dennis thought he could do what ever he wanted to do,when he wanted to without the rest of Styx.
His solo albums tanked and so did his broadway shit.Styx fired him.
Now Roger and Dennis are touring the old Floyd and Styx music and not a solo song in sight.
