John Wetton if a freaking force of nature, regardless of his time with Asia. God speed his return to the grand scheme of all things Wetton! ------------- "It just has none of the qualities of your work that I find interesting. Abandon [?] it." - Eno |

I read this the other day, and really enjoyed listening to the interview he did for Radio 2's Prog programme on Monday. Let's hope for a full recovery. ------------- Enhance your life. Get down to www.lazland.org Now also broadcasting on www.progzilla.com Every Saturday, 4.00 p.m. UK time! |

Thanks, Steve! We are all foursquare behind John on this one. Lousy year for prog bassists it seems.

| That is bad news, especially after Chris Squire's revelation. Hoping he makes a full recovery. Not a good month for bass players. |

I haven't read all the news on this, but hope he recovers fast. I wonder if he knew all the time while playing the Final Tour that this was coming. If so, he did a massive job not letting it show through... ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

| First Chris Squire and now John Wetton? Why did I have to be born in the wrong generation? Pray for both of them! We wish both of you a recovery soon! |

Hoping for a fast and painless recovery. ------------- When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |
