Hello tout le monde !
I'm a new member of this forum, I'm french (from Amiens, 120 km north Paris).
I'm a fan of Yes (of course !) especially for the 60-70's area (the Wakeman's years). Oops, I forget the early 80's !!! Going For The One stuff.
I'm a bass player and I love (yes, love !) the way Chris plays. He's my favourite with Paul McCartney.
I discovered Yes in 1973-74 with Yessongs, Fragile and Topographics' withthe little help from my brother. Like we say in France "une grande claque dans la gueule", I don't know how to translate that but "a great kick in the ..." maybe (!)

So, Hello tout le monde !

Ah Francois - welcome to Yesfans!

Glad to have yoyu here - I met some members of Nous Somme du Soleil at the Paris 2004 concert that I attended with Flo our French mod - perhaps I saw you there?

Great to have you with us.

Welcome Francios.

So glad you found us!

...good bassists are hard to find, I'm currently looking for one for recording/live shows... You wouldn't want to move to America would you?

I promise, I'll keep George Bush away from you. I have a can of Bush repellant, ...kills bugs as well, you'll be safe!

Goofing around here, as usual, welcome, have fun! And always carry a can of Bush repellant (I do). ;)

Best of days to you friend!

good bassists are hard to find ??? ... in America, too ? so it goes here in France, that's why I play bass, now (I played (and still play but less) guitar for many years.As I said I like McCartney's basslines too, so I'm playing bass with a french Beatles' tribute band and I have some personal musical projects here, so I can't go in the states now ! Sorry, Earl !
So what kind of music and instrument do you play ?

Welcome to the site, François ! It's nice to have a new French member !
I missed your first post because I was on holiday, otherwise I'm here quite often and I hope you will also visit the place frequently.
We form a very nice community who sometimes gets to meet for special Yes events.
