Alright, I show up 2 hours before tix went on sale for Konocti. Luckily, I ended up being the one and only person there for ticket sales. "Great," I thought. "I'll surely get front row seats." Yep, I decided to spend an extra $20 for front row, if I could get them. Well, of course, as luck would hav...

Yeah, that is a killer idea!! I really like that one. A simple and basically inexpensive stunt like that would generate its own media, in mass amounts. Plus, it would be a lot of fun.

BTW, I'd have to be a fanatic fan chasing that balloon.<img src=pix/icon_yes_yes.gif border=0 align=middle>

Here's the scenario: you've been hired on as the promotion manager of Yes. They have a new album coming out and it's your job to promote the band and their work. I imagine this scenario could include a tour. So, what would you do? If you want, discuss how you would have promoted Magnification. I, fo...

Type in "Yes mouse pad" on Ebay and you'll find a seller putting out some cool cover pads. I see pads for Relayer, TFTO, and Ladder. I asked the seller if they could make others and she said <img src=pix/icon_yes_yes.gif border=0 align=middle> Anyway, just thought you all might want to be aware of t...

Good luck, Ed. I'm buying Kelseyville tickets tomorrow. They go on sale at 2pm. Weird time, but that's ok by me. Tix usually go on sale at 10am around here. I assume it's the same everywhere. The good thing about 2pm start up time is that I won't be competing with other events that might be going on...

TVM, kinda pissed off that I missed the AMA Supercross finals on TV. I love watching supercross racing. When I was a kid, I raced a little. Now, I just watch. I'm a big Ricky Carmichael fan. The finals from Las Vegas were on TV this morning and I missed it!! What was I doing. Well, I was invited to ...

Ra, isn't that as in Sun God? Cool. We have something in common. I am a star, the flying one to be technical.

Hey, hope you enjoy your stay amongst all of these celestial Yes fans.

Generally, I agree that uninhibited downloading is messed up. When possible, we should support he artist. But, I also agree with the above comments by Perp and Yesfan. Certain situations justify the validity of downloading material when it is no longer available or never was available. On a side not...

If Steve wants to keep to himself, be a little pompous and rude, and keep from shaking hands, that's his prerogative. All I demand is that he continues to blow us away with those fingers.

Right no, 1909. <img src=pix/jestera.gif border=0 align=middle>

I'll try stalling if I make it to 999 before you. We'll throw a big international cyberparty. <img src=pix/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

ATM, wishing my alergies would go away, and wishing this screwy Pacific weather would leave us alone. I want some nice, hot weather and I don't want to have to wait until July! Oh well, I guess that's what I get for living in Northern Nevada. Yuk!

Good question. Interestingly, I used to live in Tempe and Mesa for a span of about 1 year. I actually like that metropolis. Great weather beyond the summer months and wonderful community (lots of outdoor activites going on: picnics, softball, tennis, golf, etc). However, I did notice, and still do, ...

Fascinating, Miz. I do wonder if their setlist included more than what the tour actually offered.

Also, I do remember information from Yesworld from last year (at least as well as my memory serves me) that Yes would tour again in 2002 and that would be the Magnification tour. Any info on that?

Maybe we're Yesnuts. Or, how about Yesazoids. Yesfreaks?

Personally, my license plate reads "1YESFAN"

It's the best I could do. Now I think I should have shortened it to "YES FAN" but that would still confuse people. They do ask me, "what does your license plate mean?" ARRrrrgggghhh!

Here's an interesting quote (interesting for nonAmerican fans) from that site. "The YES office in Los Angeles has said that Rick will rejoin YES and that rehearsals will begin at the end of June and the US tour will commence in mid-July. It is expected to finish mid-September and further countries a...

Why is it weird? Well, usually, a tour is a promotion of a new release, and usually a new release of new material. This defies that reasoning. Personally, I think the idea is weak. I might not represent the common fan, but if I do, I would say that I don't buy these "boxsets" because they are waste ...

Do tell more. Why so bad? How did you come across this footage? BTW, do you like the song "Leave It?" Just wondering. You do have to realize that this was early 80s.

Wow! another Depeche Mode fan! And, you like Star Wars. OB1, the force is strong with you indeed.

Yet, another dinosaur from the Mesozoic era. Well, rock dead? Interesting one to ponder. It sure has thinned out over the last twenty years with occasional comebacks. First, there were the glamour rockers of the 80s (Twisted Sister, Poison, GnR, etc). Also, you can't deny the metal flavor of rock (S...

Well, ATVM, I need to get to work. I have been asked to write a test for a world history course. I plan on focusing on European exploration of the 15th and 16th century as well as the revolutions that took place during the 16, 17, and 1800s. You know, the scientific, industrial, and political revolu...

While Yes is my favorite, I do listen to many other bands. Currently, I'm catching up with some U2, Zooropa, an album I've recently repurchased and just recieved in the mail. "Stay (far away, so close)" is my personal favorite on that one. But, back to the question. I tend to listen to the newest re...

I think you make some good points. I wouldn't want to see these remixes a separate albums however. I'd rather they pick and choose particular tunes to remix and offer it as one album.

Yep, sure enough, we have dates! Wooooohoooooooo!!!!!!!

Finally, Yes has come back...to America.

Welcome aboard, OB1. Hope you enjoy this board. It's a lot of fun and can be quite addictive.

I must say that I have been forced to seek by the seeker and I have lost and found all that was never out of my grasp in the first place.

You kind of knew this was going to happen. I know our hopes were up; we really figured to see a full datelist; expected to make our plans today; had the credit cards ready; were totally eyeing the internet, but low and behold, Yes pulls another wool blanket over our eyes. Well, maybe they're using a...

Tempting offer, Ray. I can almost see myself driving down to Vegas, and catching a ride with you. It'd be fun. Sorry to say though, the timing is bad. I'm busy on that weekend here in Reno. So, I'm waiting for tomorrow and, if necessary, will have to make a road trip to Universal City on 8/23. That'...

Sold out? That's great news! Hope you find your way, Squirefan!
