First Journey, now YES! (He sounds pretty good though.)

I'll sleep better knowing that tonight. I did not even realize YES was still together...

Didn't they make a movie about this a while back?

Hmmmm, not to be confused with David Benoit, the jazz musician.

or Beloit, WI.

oh honey, a friend of mine is such a YES fan that he wrote a book about them!

And he mocks ME for being a parrothead...

Has anyone ever bothered to read it?

Judas Priest did the same thing for a while with Tim "Ripper" Owens before Rob Halford rejoined the band.

Did Tim's girlfriend look nearly as hot as Jennifer Aniston wearing a macromae (sp?) dress with a thong underneath?

I saw Yes back in, 2002, mabe 2003 at Smirnoff in Dallas. They barely filled the pavillion. The only people in the lawn were us that ended up there to get in a cool breeze. Maybe 30 of us max.

Dunno. I never did. Wanna borrow my copy?

I saw Yes back in the early '70s when I was in college. A girl I knew liked them and I was trying to get into her pants. Didn't work. B*tch

Journey is out on tour with one right now! Sorry didn't read all of 1st post!

Wahlberg didn't do any vocals. Vocal duties for the movie/soundtrack are handled by Michael Matijevic of Steelheart. GREAT singer with a wide range. Steelheart was an hairband from the late 80's.

Jeff Scott Soto (of Journey fame) provided the vocals of the original singer of the band in the movie.

Boston did the same..

total Yes fan here...
Seen them in many different incarnations since '77
The band's musical prowess always just awes me, even through their last tour in 2003

Steve Howe and Chris Squire are enough to carry the band
but I wonder if they can keep it tight without the spiritual leader, Jon Anderson
