Hi all
Just a quick intro in case anyone's interested.
My name's Wil and I live in England (originally from just outside London but now a bit further up in Leicestershire). I'm happily married of 11 years and have a great potential Yes fan in my 19-month old son - Cam. By day I work as an illustrator for a video games development studio owned by the almighty Mickysoft but I've also just started to run a little webshop selling toys and neat stuff at www.dinkybox.com. Sorry I hope that didn't sound like advertising!
Even though I hit the big 4-0 this year I came to Yes a little late while in college back in the early 80's. I love all periods of the band but my fave albums have to be CTTE, Going For The One and Big Generator (I know?! But it's just a great noise!). I'm also partial to a bit of Bruford (I'm a big Dave Stewart keyboard fan) and can find something to love in pretty much anything any of the guys have been involved with. As it's December 4th as I'm writing this I've just dusted off the 3 Ships vinyl and Chris & Alan's single -sure they're hokey but I love a christmassy tune!
I haven't been to a concert since 90125 as my better half isn't really that into any sort of music (except a bit of Osmonds every now and again!) and I've moved away from any Yes-loving friends from home (maybe that'll change again soon). I was really sorry I missed the Trevor Horn tribute gig a week or two back.
Anyway, enough waffle. Peace and smiles to all Yes fans from me.
