[sdiy] Chris Squire

[David G Dixon]

Ditto all your thoughts.  I've idolized Chris Squire since I was 12 years
old (I'm 50 now).  One of the all-time greats.  I can't believe that Yes
will carry on without him.  There is only Howe and White there now.  I saw
Yes live three times -- 1984 (90125 tour), 1997 (Open Your Eyes tour), and
2001 (Magnification symphonic tour).  They were all great.  I have tried to
watch videos of the latest Yes in concert, but I can't get past the insipid,
mundane voice of that poseur who is pretending to be Jon Anderson.  It's all
too sad.
