If it's not, Yes has a real problem on their hands!!  I'm a frog-voiced 2nd Bass by training!!  

I think they'd do better with Slartibartfast or Lazland or ANYBODY else on vocals but moi! 

However, if the bass chair ever opens.....

Happy April Fools Day to all!

Scared me as i am seeing them play in Aus in two weeks

I hoped it was a joke as I like the idea of Jon Davison singing for them.

Bugger, you got me

Hi,
 
I made a point of not reading any posts yesterday ... but then, if there was one that was ripe for a joke, the YES one was a good one to work with ...but I have to tell you ... I'm kinda tired of this stuff and it is starting to bore me silly!
 
I'm ready for new blood because this is just old blood and it's getting older ... and older!
 
Maybe a Black singer and some rap would help this band wake up some! Or get that goon drummer that was in Dream Theater so he can try to out-stage Chris!
 
That would make a good show ... !!!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Was going to go with someone like Lou Rawls or Barry White but I can't think of anyone living still rocking that voice.  Shame.
 
Either way, I am never in favor of a band continuing on after losing their iconic frontman (only exception being AC/DC).  I don't want to see Yes without Jon Anderson, Thin Lizzy without Phil Lynott, Lynyrd Skynyrd without Ronnie, etc.  Just admit you aren't the same band and use a different name.

Yes announces that it will ditch "Heaven and Earth" and instead record an album written entirely by Mike Tiano. 

"We knew we were in trouble when Jon Davison came to us with a song about a goddess in a head dress--we're done with celestial hairstyles," says Alan White. Chris Squire adds, "We and our manager Turdy Brown treated Mike like sh*t, which makes sense if you think about our manager's name. So f**k her, we're making amends even if the o**l s*x stops." 

Steve Howe mentioned that "Mike's song 'There Behind You' is better than any of the crap we had already recorded." Jon Anderson concluded with, "Why are you asking me? I'm not in the band and don't give a Flying From Here F**k." 

Listen to Mike's tunes and see if Yes made the right decision. --MOT 4/1/14
