Okay, not to start or spread any rumors, but in recent interviews, both Steve Howe and Alan White
http://nfte.org/interviews/AW311.html
are hinting strongly at the possibility of an upcoming Yes / Asia tour. No dates have been announced or confirmed, but for those who like to plan ahead... just know that this is now a possibility, at least as far as Steve and Alan are concerned. Yesworld.com has always been the best place to check for updates, and nothing is posted there yet, but there is quite a buzz about it on Yesfans.com, probably due to the two recent interviews. This, of course, would mean overtime for Steve Howe, who would be playing guitar for both bands. It will be interesting to see if it can be worked out.

Hopefully, things go MUCH MORE SMOOTHLY this time around.
You can't keep good men down!
MORE POWER TO THEM!
Now, if we could get ELP in the mix....

That is true, Mik. No one seems to know exactly what the future holds for Jon and Yes. Currently, Yes are:
Chris Squire - Bass & Vocals
Steve Howe - Guitars & Vocals
Alan White - Drums
Benoit David - Vocals
Oliver Wakeman - Keyboards
Asia is the Original John Wetton, Steve Howe, Geoff Downes & Carl Palmer lineup.
Welcome to the forum!

I just saw yesterday that Yes will play at a small local "music tent" in late July. I am kind of surprised to see them on this circuit, but maybe the lack of Jon reduces the audience interest. This show is 7/25 and it would be great to get up close to watch Chris perform. From what I've heard, Benoit's voice is a pretty good match as well.
Hope everybody is doing well here!
