Yes's performance of Roundabout with Geedy Lee on bass. Geddy in a interview afterwards cited Chris Squire as a big influence in his playing, and was honored to be able to play this, he put a lot of work into trying to capture Squire's sound for the performance.

No disrespect to Chris Squire, but I wish they would tour with this line up.

Yes had an all around great HOF treatment. Wakeman's acceptance speech, along with the fat wizard cape and armory of keyboards was classic.

Geddy was a perfect fill in, his tone and style with Rush was pretty clearly inspired by Chris.

And I'm in the Squire was the most vital member of Yes fanclub. It cost $60 to join.

No ragrets.

It was absolutely surreal for me to see Geddy playing with those guys. But it wasn't just his presence—seeing Steve and Jon and Rick playing together is something we haven't seen in many many years.

I was OK with the Jon Davison version of the group, I saw them and I enjoyed it. But as soon as Squire died they were no longer Yes. Although Steve Howe is one of my all-time favorite guitarists, I would rather see ARW than the Yes cover group Howe now leads. It's a complete mess. Whatever animosity Steve has towards Jon, they just need to make up and give the fans what they want.

Imagine if Steve, Jon, Rick, and Alan tour with special guest Geddy Lee. That would be amazing.
