I would rather see this than the band that is currently calling themselves Yes.

Watching the promo demo: Anderson still has his vocal range and tone. The band sounds great, too!

I hope they pass near Phoenix now that I am not in NJ.

@Admin M@ Do you have any intel if Richie is using the FM9 and certain cab packs?

Nice...I dig it, will likely try to catch one of those shows around here.

I'm one of the small minority that really loved the Talk album, and because it was never a big commercial success there aren't many videos of Yes performing it. Band Geeks did a phenomenal cover of the opening track and I like it just as much as the real album version. Never heard anybody else get this close to Trevor Rabin's sound and playing.

Which one? There's two of them, one with Steve Howe, the other with Trevor Rabin.

When she auditioned, how many seconds before they said "You're Hired!"

Would have been funny if each used a name from the Magic 8-ball instead of "Yes":

• It is certain
• It is decidedly so.
• Without a doubt.
• Most likely.
• Outlook good.
• Signs point to yes.
• Reply hazy, try again.
• Ask again later.
• Better not tell you now.
• Concentrate and ask again.

Another one that popped up, due to algorithms etc...but I love this song too:



The parts that Chris Squire did on bass for this band are so underrated imo. The bass carries that whole song.

I trust these players to do justice in performing these songs. Hope to see it in person

 

[trancegodz]

Sounds really good to me!

I caught the last gettogether Anderson and the other members did, and that I guess was the last memory I'll have of the band live. I can't get into a lot of the weird combinations of old bands coming out. Like, not going to see whatever Ian Anderson is doing now, because it's not Tull unless Martin Barre is there. Only exception I'd make is seeing Geddy and Alex if they put something together.
