He is credited for writing many of the band's hits including "Lady", "Come Sail Away", the number 1 hit "Babe", "Mr. Roboto", "Don't Let It End", and "Show Me The Way", which gave Styx the privilege of having hits in 3 decades. In 1999, DeYoung was removed from the band lineup after a viral ailment left him sensitive to bright light. By the time he recovered, guitarists Tommy Shaw and James "JY" Young had replaced him with Scottish-born Canadian rock musician Lawrence Gowan. Forced to become a solo musician, he briefly sued the band for misuse of the Styx logo, name and trademark, a dispute which was later settled out of court. Dennis currently tours as "The Music Of Styx" playing many of the Styx songs that he wrote in addition to some of his solo songs written during Styx's hiatus from 1984-1989. Former Styx bandmate Glen Burtnik currently tours with Dennis on selected shows.
