why late at night in the u.s. does ilm get all yessed out

Anderson, Wakeman, and Rabin are touring this year.

woke up this morning all yessed out

really looking forward to an AWR album (though why not Wakeman Anderson & Rabin or Rabin Anderson & Rabin . . . WAR / RAW versus YES!). the collaboration jon a just did with roine stolt (kaipa / flower kings (!) / transatlantic (!!)) can err on the side of saccharine sometimes but is WAAAAAAY better than heaven & earth imho. there are some old school topographic vibes for sure

aint nearly yessed out yet got a ways to go

never mind ilm, the IOM is getting all yessed out from Friday

"Grandpa, what are stamps?"

i like to think that the synth wooble just before the second verse of roundabout starts is what it sounds like to get yessed out

or the multilayered horn/squire "YEEEEEESSSSS" from near the end of Tempus Fugit

(If you want to see Steve Howe's Yes, their only gigs at the moment are a short run of Japanese dates and the Cruise to the Edge, departing from Tampa, Florida, on February 7th.)

seeeeeeagulls will pass you by

Err...yeah I don't like Rabin's '80s El Lay guitar histrionics. Guys...Why?

Just had a listen to some ARW, and like, damn Jon Anderson sounds good. I'll take Howe over Rabin all day (though Howe has been sounding not so hot lately...) but Anderson is just killing it, even sloppy old Rick Wakeman sounds better than Downes, and I like Downes a lot. I'm probably the biggest Drama stan on this board but still I gotta say, ARW pretty much blows Yes out of the water

of course it doesn't help that Chris Squire is gone, still such a sad end to things. oftentimes I feel like "Fish out of Water" is the best Yes record

this is great though. I think I'll go after all.

kurt schitterz tell me if you're going to this in november. my wife thinks it's sad I keep going to these prog shows on my lonesome.

Definitely go. I'd be there if it was an option. Also bassist Lee Pomeroy was great when he played with Hackett on the Genesis Revisited Tour. Sounds pretty good here too.

oh that's right, that was him. hackett's band was excellent (except for nad sylvan who is annoying)

wow that was surprisingly excellent

cant believe Jon is like 70 now and still sounds like that

Glad he got his voice back.

hearing. talking. yes i love

two hearts will always be in and out of time

alec baldwin interviews jon anderson

http://www.wnyc.org/story/jon-anderson-musical-adventure-isnt-over/

saw a stoner skateboard kid getting off the train a couple days ago with a yes '77 tour t-shirt. are yes really big in the stoner set? i thought stoners went more for the floyd.

why not both?

That interview is great.

I'm surprised his Howard Stern interview isn't easier to find, I'd like to hear it. Apparently he was the first big guest Stern got to pick himself?

So, have you guys noticed this thing where the intro for 'Roundabout' is being used in meme-esque video clips where some sort of collision or confrontation is imminent. Except, right when the collision/whatever is going to happen, the video freezes just as the whole band joins in and 'Roundabout' begins, with a "To be continued" text somewhere on the screen. And that's it.

Where does this come from? I find it equally intriguing and hilarious that 'Roundabout' has found its way into "meme culture" in such a random way. And I find that every time someone uses it in one of their videos, the funnier it gets for me.

Dammit, it's not there anymore.

why late at night in the u.s. does ilm get all yessed out

Some anime cartoon used Roundabout as its soundtrack, but yeah, love those.

Okay. That was fantastic.

First time ever seeing this meme and I can confirm it's awesome. Dying laughing at some of those.

yeah I'm laughing like an idiot after 20 seconds of that

me 2

why must we wait till the morning light to wake up and be, wake up and be, wake up and be?

I wonder if OP trevor horn still hangs around these parts. I knew him IRL but haven't seen him in probably a decade.

It's almost 11pm on Friday night, I'm at my office dealing with work spillover stuff, and I am TOTALLY YESSED OUT

I know I posted this on the other thread, but you know what, I'm in the US and I want everybody to know it

I'm an American, I'm yessed out, it's late at night, and I vote

Which Yes transmission are you picking up?

All I want to do is live inside the bass line from "Roundabout" for the rest of my days

take sides: eclipse vs. apocalypse

nice! I didn't know that band but am checking them out now

we hear you, eephus

Is there a better Yes song than "Going for the One?" I don't think so.

Is there as a good a Yes song as "Going for the One?" I haven't heard it.

Yessongs (the live movie) is on Amazon Prime streaming right now and it is fucking great
