So...I guess this was the tour where they went out without a drummer?

I noticed that too, Dane. Alan gets no respect.

Look at other pics from that blog and there's very little of drummers.

Yup, I guess it's 'drummers get no respect'.

(We never get the girls at the end of the night in the bar, either...too much gear to break down.)

Actually (as I forgot to mention), I saw Yes on this tour at the Long Beach Arena...the show where three 'streakers' (two male and one female) ran across the stage during the encore. The second guy, running in last place, got tangled up in Squire's 50 feet of stereo 'ROS' cords and was on stage a few seconds longer than he'd planned, with Squire yanking on the cords trying to dislodge him. I'll bet Chris, in his magic boots, never dreamed he could be upstaged by a guy with no wardrobe budget at all...

Can't get that Nancy Sinatra song out my head.

Thanks

Miguel

great photos,tony! i remember seeing them in those outfits, but i cracked up on that 4th picture down,where chris looks like he should be in a go-go cage......(the hair is flipping up ,and basically looks like he is wearing a swingin' 60's miniskirt to go with his hip boots....

Lovely! Thanks for the link, Tony!

The Earthwood bass is used on the "Leaves Of Green" section of The Ancient.

John Entwistle also had one and posed with it for the front cover of Beat Instrumental.

Speak for yourself Dane! Who do you think I got to help me carry my gear to my car after I broke it down?
