Morrissey did a TV interview a couple of months ago and said he has exactly 7 friends. I bet one of them is Hammill - that's how swell a guy he is.

What happend to Steve Howe?    My god he looks worse than Keith Richards?  Lost a lot of weight it appears and missing a tooth?  Looks like a meth addict.

If you're gonna show that picture.. might as well finish it off-- Here's Alan White attending a Keith concert...

Even Alice Cooper came to see Keith

and then Jordan Rudess with Keith, Rick and Bernie Worrel... Jordan said he was in 7th Heaven BTW

Looks even worse than my class reunion last year, and that's really saying something.

Jack Black payed homage to Yes in "School of Rock". When he was
instructing the keyboard player in the band he gave him a copy of Fragile
and told him to listen to the keyboard player (Rick Wakeman) especially.

And Hammill has had CDs issued by DGM, now that I think of it - X My Heart was pretty good.

Ian Anderson was apparently a big fan of Gentle Giant, who supported Tull on tour from time to time.

For the most part, I suspect the Spinal Tap 'This much talent!' moment sums up a lot of rocker's feelings about each other.

ErmmHard to know much about this, without the ability to read minds....Confused

Still, interesting -- WELCOME, kniprekcor! Big smile Good to have an Egyptian here!Smile (We had one before, but he seems to have left months ago.... tut tut!) Wink

How about those pyramids, eh? Built by aliens, or humans? Paid workers, or slaves?

Too bad ol' Nappy's  troops blasted the nose off the Sphinx -- would-be world rulers tend to have precious little respect for history and culture....Angry

Keith Emerson and Rick Wakeman are good friends i think, im sure Keith once helped Rick out on one of his solo albums by lending him some keyboards, i may be wrong!!
