Many moons ago Gryhon opened for Yes. What different trajectories these two groups have followed.
Yes have aspired for omnitemporality lurching around the Globe, Lord Squire hiring and firing as he goes, slowly reducing their relevance, but always swelling their coffers.

Gryphon are back on tour 6 date tour for first time in 35 years, and they are stunning. Already seen them once and have tickets for Union Chapel too next week. 

Absence does indeed make the heart grow fonder.....

If Yes were playing a street party in my road, I'd probably still go out and watch.

My deepest regret at the moment is that I'm tied up in York and can't get to one of the Gryphon gigs. I saw them blow Yes offstage when Yes were at their peak (at the end of the Yes set, the audience were calling for Gryphon to come back - and they did, playing an encore with Yes). It's a shame they haven't come further north, because every comment I've seen is that they are still stunningly good.
