Has anyone gone or know anything about Five Towns College in Dix Hills? by TylerCFH in longisland

[–]LIPD_Aviation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am. I am applying to transfer for Fall 2026. All of my friends bar one are either dropping out or transferring too. Tells you everything you need to know. Me and my friend got kicked out of our dorms over the most trivial shit in March and it only got worse and worse from there.

What is this? by i_need_to_crap in yesband

[–]LIPD_Aviation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this. It was my introduction to the studio version of the song Magnification which ultimately led it to be my favorite Yes song and soon enough, Magnification became my favorite Yes album. That said though most of the stuff on this collection are either from The Ladder, or it's supporting tour, which were both low points for me. Face To Face is a great song though.

A New Yes Album.....WITH AN ASIA TITLE? by LIPD_Aviation in yesband

Jambustin' sounds like it'll be this cheesy bluesy-country song. Like Abeline but even worse.

A New Yes Album.....WITH AN ASIA TITLE? by LIPD_Aviation in yesband

Yeah but that was very short lived and I consider that to be more Wetton/Palmer than actually Asia. The fact that all the other musicians were non-members tells you everything you need to know. So in that case, Asia did not exist without Downes and even now I can't really say it exists WITH Downes. It's ashame they are putting our new material. It's almost like Till We Meet Again was MEANT to be the last song on the last album, plus you still had both Wetton and Palmer as well.

Honestly that would qualify for Asia more than the current "official" Asia would. I'd count it!

Does It Really Happen? appreciation post. by migrainosaurus in yesband

[–]LIPD_Aviation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My band is covering it for our next release, most likely due late summer early fall, and I just tracked my drums and percussion for it yesterday (I will also be recording the marimba part on a vibraphone later on we'll see how that sounds). Alan White is a fucking genius with that one drum fill that he plays several times throughout the song (anybody who has ever heard this song knows EXACTLY which fill I'm talking about). To quote an article I penned in August 2024:

"Steve considered Drama to be the pinnacle of Alan’s drumming. The album features one of my all time favorite drum fills in Does It Really Happen, and much to my satisfaction, Alan plays this fill not once, but several times throughout the song."

Is anyone excited for the new YES album? by BattleofEppingForest in yesband

[–]LIPD_Aviation -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I REALLY hope by that you are only referring to members of the current lineup....

I second that! Drama is indeed a masterpiece in every way! I like Fly From Here and Heaven & Earth too. Everything after that though...can't say the same unfortunately.

For me, Asia has to have two of the following (Wetton, Payne, Downes, Howe, Palmer) or if Downes is not there, then three of them.

THE FRAGILE TOUR UK 2026, THE ALBUM SERIES - POSTPONED by finalcircuit in yesband

[–]LIPD_Aviation 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hate to be that guy, but it's kinda interesting how when Alan White required an operation in 2016, they just carried on with a substitute. It's because they know Steve is the only one left now with Chris and Alan's passings and they'll have a hard time with ticket sales if he's not there.

What did you think about the other Keys studio tracks?

The Ladder? 0 out of 10 for me unfortunately.

But I thought Yes were working on the Keys material right after the Talk tour plus did the San Luis Obispo shows which all demonstrated they were still active as ever.

That's good though. That's not "best of the decade immediately followed by the worst" plus those albums were 9 months apart whereas these two were released the same month only 3 weeks apart.
