My Yes-freak boyfriend would kill me if I didn't stand up for Jon Anderson
from Yes. Yes is still around, and at least in my opinion Jon still sings and
performs from his heart. He is a little "cosmic" but can't we say that about
our beloved Jane, too? And of course Kate as well.
I have recently been getting into Bruce Cockburn...I always liked him but I
am amassing some of his catalogue and plan to see him live here next month! He
definitely has that independent spirit that we admire...he just aims it at
more political/social issues.
Any other Bruce fans here? Anyone seen him on this tour?
Again. my 2 cents,
Lisa Johnson
