From the front page of Melodic Rock today:

Prog rockers Yes (in the wake of Jon Anderson's illness and the subsequent cancellation of this summer's planned U.S. tour) have selected a tribute band singer to replace its iconic frontman. He's Benoit David from the Canadian Yes tribute band Close to the Edge (www.ctte.net). Details at: www.bondegezou.co.uk/wnyesm.htm.
Here is Benoit David singing with Close to the Edge on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3BFuxBayxg.


I'm going to guess that there is much more to this story . . . stay tuned.

It's odd, but at least he sounds good - CTTE is not easy. Actually that whole band is one of the better tribute bands I've heard. THe only other band I think that has a lower tribute turnout is Rush (oh yeah, been there done that lol). I doubt it will be well received by the die hard fans (any other kind left?).

Montreal is a fertile ground for prog rock tribute bands. The Musical Box is from there as well (the only officially sanctioned Genesis tribute band).

I had read that they tried to grab Lawerence Gowan from the tribute band Styx.

Since Lawerence and his tribute band were still on tour he had to decline.
