It was pretty cool to get that piece down note perfect as I has been meaning to do for quite some time.


YES was always great. I figured out Roundabout by ear but I could not help combine the guitar with the cool Squire bass line. The video of Howe playing The Clap is a great lesson.
Bravo Tarski.


If you are a YES fan them my estimation of you has improved a bit and I can even see a bit of that epic "YES mood" in the idea of the Apocalrock.
I think I understand you better (maybe).

I'm not trying to suck up to you or anything Tarski, just mentioning that I quite like Yes, and have seen them in concert 4 or 5 times, my favorite time being in Boston when the opening act was Kansas, Kansas being one of my all-time favorite bands. That was a great concert!
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen

I can contribute by illegally downloading any music produced during MDB jam sessions.

Just as a quick clarification here: I was planning on writing an original piece for this, and unless I can coerce my band to join in, it will be instrumental. Is that kosher, or are these supposed to be related to the board somehow?

Instrumental is great, Molok! I look forward to your contribution.
