YES !...I remember seeing that on one his telecasts. I had totally forgotten about that. Of course, I remember thinking the same thing then...just bad Progyokee . LOL
Thank you for supporting independently produced music

Oh that's you is it? Those Cockney Rush puns were absolutely inspired, I showed them to missus. If you can stomach it, this podcast from last week which I guested on explains the, ahem, 'process'..basically though I learn by ear, rehearse it to the point that I JUST about can do the basic outline of the song, and then record before it gets any 'better'... I read the lyrics off a screen and react to them

As for it being a character I just don't know.. I think it's a hybrid.. honestly

And I have done a Yes one...completely stream of consciousness rubbish..it's called ''Ponderous Stories That Go On For Bloody Weeks'' but it's NOT a jibe at Yes - it breaks off into memories of a tedious roadie I used to know  

Thank you very much for all this!

It would appear so. I fear though that he may draw a court case out on technicalities until my £100 runs out

Right...I'm 'avin' it.. Thanks so much!
