Cal: [Pointing to a framed poster] I mean, seriously, Asia? You framed an Asia poster? How hard did the people at the frame store laugh when you brought this in?
Andy Stitzer: They did not laugh at me.
David: Know why you're gay? Because you like Asia.

Hate to hear it. 67 is better than 66, but less than 68. Guess you never know when your number is up.

He hasn't been touring with the current Asia for a while.
Without him and Steve Howe, Asia ought to hang it up!!

Sucks. Asia put out some badass songs.

not sure King Crimson could be called a "rock" band. Hell , I'm not sure what you would call them!
Nevertheless RIP John Wetton

Agree.. "Only time will Tell" one of my favs.

I saw them at The Saenger in 82. Good times. 80's Prog rock Super group technical wizardry guys who knew how to play and dumbed it down for me and all my friends.I probably never listened to them again after about 83 though. 
RIP Mr. Wetton.
