Oh shit. I met Rick through my friend and great luthier Ed Claxton. Rick was a great guy. A class act all the way. RIP, Rick.

Especially evil ones. The clown girl on my right arm is holding a red balloon like Pennywise.
I dont have a Pennywise the clown tattoo, but I have a Pennywise the Band logo on my right elbow.
I am pretty sure my thing for clowns and Jesters started way back when I was 9 or 10 and got a John Lucero skateboard, it was my favorite deck.
And of course its a big Jester on the bottom of the deck.

Maybe a bit late, I’d like to pay my respects to a dude that gone too soon, seen live twice, a great bassist and great man. Goodbye my dude.

Oh fuck. Well, pour one out for a synth legend. RIP, king of sweeping pads.
His collection is going to fetch millions.

I am a big fan of Bruford, but always thought Alan White was the better drummer for Yes and the music they played…
I think he had some health problems lately and could not really perform anymore. That must be utterly devastating for guys who have played shows for 50+ years.

I’m a big fan of Yes, especially classical Yes, which is some combination of Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Peter Banks, Steve Howe, Tony Kaye, Rick Wakeman, Bill Buford, and Alan White.
Yessongs and Iive at Montreux are two of my favorite albums. Also Fragile and The Yes album but those were Bill.

Sad news, I am also a big YES fan.
Live in Montreaux is one of my favourites as well.
I just like YES across all the different combinations including the buggles stuff , into the lenses, tempus fugit .
90215 with Trevor Rabin is also very good 
Cheers Brian

It was a bad day for the death trifecta with Alan, Andy and Ray Liotta passing…sad day for music fans…On Wednesday, in fact, Yes had announced that Alan wouldn’t be joining the tour because of illness and a day later he was gone.
