Caution!!!
If you've any regard for the musical legacy of YES... (and are possessed of a weak stomach)... DO NOT watch this video!!!
On the other hand, if you've ventured forth and viewed the video, perhaps you'll be so kind as to elucidate your fellow prog-rockers with the answer to the following query:
What could possibly have possessed Chris Squire to so thoroughly disgrace himself and trash the musical legacy of Yes in the process?
Is it his desperate attempt to hang-on, at any price, to his long-lost Rock stardom?
Is it his gluttonous, whorish appetite to milk every last penny from the Yes cash-cow?
Or has he simply become a sad, demented, senile, old man?

Agreed!!!!!I watched this video the other night.............was terrible...was only Squire and White.....no Howe and young Wakeman in sight and sordid rendition of the ''lonely heart''..
On the other hand, i am wondering where comes from your total disdain to this ''in the present ''project??? I know it has not been nicely done with Jon Anderson...........but i smell more than just simple anger and deception at the fact that Anderson is not ''present''

That's what I heard too.
Ok. So that wasn't the best performance I've ever seen by Squire or White. In fact, the guys in the Fox News band were really the stars of that video. But what's with this person who pops in every week or so to slam Squire, et al.? It sounds personal.
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

true... but it beats the usual sh*t the studio's are putting out... a little personal crusade against a prog icon here sure beats another thread on best Genesis song to cure insomnia with. More power to him
maybe we need a poll on prog icon you'd piss on before giving a glass of water to....

CHRIS MCGUIRE! (Lizzy's old British uncle)
See. I don't know what Ms. Galore keeps going on about Chris Squire for. That's not even Squire. It's some boob named Chris McGuire. That's who she should be ticked at.
