as i write this, i am listening to that antithesis of sinister: prog rock! yes, my pop old Yes album, Fragile. i admit it, i was nuts for yes in middle school. i actually own this album on cassette (before i even got a cd player, imagine that!) oh dear, it's so embarassing. i can say though, that before yes got all fey and floaty they were rockin', yeah, punk stylie. ok, not quite, but still. this is still a pretty good album. and who can forget that incredible year when jon anderson quit and the buggles joined the band, giving us such gems as "machine messiah" and "tempus fugit"? ahh... yes, i am proud to admit it... i saw yes at jones beach here on long island... they were old and fat, except for the new boys they had grafted on who were just tykes. it wasn't until years later than i learned yes was a "stoner band"... all my youthful love and idealism broken in a single swoop! ah... so that was my "yes post". wait later for my "i need a friend post" quickly followed by my "cry for help post", all of which culminates tragically in my three-hour long song cycle entitled "songs of death and rebirth", subtitled, "an interactive traipse". thank you. - adam aconover@optonline.net Tempus Fugit is at: http://www.i2.i-2000.com/~conover/tempus/main.html +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
