Topic: Detroit Regional Final: Yes v. Gong Posted: January 04 2015 at 06:50
For a spot in the final 4!!! Who is it to be? YesVIDEO or GongVIDEO Vegas has installed Yes as a 6.5 vote favorite. Can Gong pull the upset, perhaps. We shall see!

Love both but it's getting increasingly rarer that I put on a Yes album. Gong on the other hand is a band that I listen to on a weekly basis. Gong it is

Not particularly big on either, but Gong, at least, doesn't make me fall asleep.

Gong, play them much more often these days, and they actually have a good new album.

As much as I appreciate Gong, there are at about 10 Yes albums that I like better than the best Gong albums.

It's never too early to vote against Yes.

Voting for Gong just for the fun. Yes have won plenty of polls here. Let them sweat it out this time (wishful thinking, but the world lives on hope
).

Surprised at the results so far. I like Yes' '70s albums slightly more than Gong's but I'll take anything Gong did since the '70s over Yes. Gong it is.
