The Answer on YES is Yes
If there's one thing you can count on, it's that a Genesis fan is also a Yes fan. There were almost as many T-shirts heralding that other British
progressive-rock band at the Long Beach Arena on Saturday as there were Genesis shirts.
The news this morning is that two members of Yes -- lead singer Jon Anderson and keyboardist Rick Wakeman -- have left the band and will be
pursuing solo work. The group, however, will continue. In fact, continuing members have signed up vocalist Trevor Horn and keyboardist Geoffrey Downes
from the Buggles band. The new lineup is rehearsing in London and expects to tour later in the year. The Buggles' "Video Killed the Radio-Star" was
a big hit last year in England.
