Rick made me do it.....


The stuff about the equipment malfunctions on the tour were new to me!!  Alan White getting trapped inside of the elaborate Roger Dean stage set equipment etc.    

Damn, that was the only major Yes tour I missed since CTTE!   They cancelled my show in Urbana, IL due to lack of truck fuel due to the Oil Embargo.   

My own favorite side of "Tales" is "The Remembering," I find the composition and instrumental performances sublime.  I could really do without "The Ancient."  A release of Sides One and Two would have worked for me. 

Sorry I just meant the curry incident.LOL

Yes, the rest was interesting, I agree.Wink

Hah!  I knew for years about "Rick eating curry onstage during "Tales," and the rest of the band being pissed off," but I didn't have the exact menu options!  Chicken Vindaloo is my own favorite!  

One story I haven't seen recounted is one I read in a book somewhere, about how TFTO was conceived on a flight from the UK to the USA while the band was stoned on hash brownies!!  Anyone else ever heard of that one?  

Cheers, Snow Dog!  Handshake
