45 litres of diesel, the tank holds 45 litres, range when I filled up was 5 miles !
Not the best idea to leave it so long between filling up.

But it is the same Yes who recorded those albums? Mostly, Chris Squire (Bass) and Steve Howe (Guitar) are there from all three of the albums and the drummer Alan White from the Going for the One album is there, no Wakeman or Anderson but Geoff Downes (Buggles/Asia) is a good replacement and the new singer sounds pretty much like a young Jon Anderson. I don't mind that it's not the classic lineup, I just want to see most of the band, I need my PROG! |

I found a Tappanyaki Grill that had been reduced in Aldi today.
I have no idea what a Tappanyaki is or how long you should grill it for but it looks like it could be useful for my next attempt at Okonmiyaki.
Noodle.

o.O No Rock Wankman or Jon Anderson?? *sadface* Sorry, but to me those two basically are Yes... I'd regard what's left as more a tribute band, though YMMV, of course. It's a bit like post-Fish Marillion singing classic Fish-era songs... just wrong on so many levels. I do have those classic Yes albums on vinyl somewhere, must dig those out for a spin sometime. Actually... I must dig out all* my prog and have a weekend's nostalgiafest *plenty of early (proper) Genesis (Trespass is still my fave album of theirs), Pink Floyd, Tull, Yes, Magma, Marillion, Pallas, IQ, Rush... and probably more than a few long-forgotten gems. Might have to make it a long weekend... |

It's the same - think it's only called that over here as we may have heard of tepanyaki, but only the more die hard will have heard of okonomoyaki. |

I'd say it's not Yes if it doesn't have Chris Squire (he's been the only consistent member I believe), you can't replace that bass playing, every cover of Roundabout I've heard never gets that bit right ever. I don't mind it's not the full original lineup, I'm just trying to see as many of these groups as I can before they stop playing. |
