An update from David . . .
November update
Hi everyone, well its good to see all the kind reviews coming in about
the book and thank you for your telephone calls as well. After all the
hard work its comforting to know that I achieved my aim in creating what
I believe is the best Yes book to date, thanks. Well flyers were given
out at the Sweden Yes fan gathering on 6th NOVEMBER event out there.
If you would like me to sign your copy of your book I shall be at the
following UK events:-
THE ROGER DEAN EXHIBITION, 12 NOVEMBER (London)
(I recently visited the Anne Sudworth's art exhibition (artist for
Rick's son's album cover) and urge you to check out her work, she is
very talented)
BILL BRUFORD, 15 NOVEMBER Brighton gig
UK YES TOUR
I will be handing out flyers for the book at these gigs in December,
signing copies if you see me and possibly signing copies in the various
book shops in each town:-
BRIGHTON 1 DEC
BIRMINGHAM 2 DEC
LONDON 4 / 5 DEC (Tower Records - wait for the times)
CARDIFF 7 DEC
NOTTINGHAM 8 DEC
Yescapade is OFF, not enough fans signed up for it, big shame I was
looking
forward to it. Are there any fans for the gigs up north willing to hand
out
flyers for me at the gigs, the ones I cant get to?
I am looking into selling copies that are signed through the web site,
will
keep you informed.
The proposed US Tower signing events don't look on anymore which is a
shame as I have always wanted to meet the Yes fans out there. Well
after many years of trying you wont be able to buy the book on the Yes
tour either here in the UK or in the US, sorry, I did try.
I visited Roger Dean this week to give him his copy of the book and to
return to him his huge collection of negatives he kindly loaned to me, I
was privileged to have had these in my possession for so long it was
exciting to see them all, mainly Yes in 1973 on Tour in Japan. Roger
said he was very busy with many projects on the go and was preparing for
the exhibition which is the first one in London since about 1975.
I am again selling some of my music collection on Ebay.com so if you are
interested in memorabilia by Yes and other bands please do check the
collectibles section out, you may like something. Enjoy the book, see
you soon oh soon.
