Auch wenn es nicht wirklich Neues beinhaltet -ein Rick Wakeman -Statement via Henrys Seite, in dem er von einer zwei Jahre dauernden Tour spricht und seine Betätigung an den Tasten nicht ausschließt. Immer nur ganz kleine Informationsschnipsel, der Inhalt so dürftig wie die neue YESWORLD-Seite, zum Spekulieren aber wunderbar...-typisch für YES, oder?

Just been on the phone with Rick Wakeman, who gave me the lowdown on why he's having little involvement with Yes' 40th anniversary tour. Though Rick hasn't ruled out appearing during the trek's intended two-year run in some shape or form, his son Oliver will be tickling the ivories when Yes kick off in Quebec City on July 12. Seems that the last suicidally long bout of roadwork nearly killed the legendary keyboard player and, according to Rick, almost cost Jon Anderson his voice. He also felt they should have had some new material to promote, which sadly won't be the case. "Oliver's a great player, he spoke at length to Chris [Squire, bassist] and Steve [Howe, guitarist], and I'm pleased that it all worked out," enthuses Oliver's dad, quipping: "They'll also save money on the T-shirts by not having to rub the surname of Wakeman out."

And for a moment when our world had filled the skies
Magic turned our eyes
