LINK: Steve Howe in Texas

Whether it's the mind-blowing progressive rock of Yes or the slicker pop stylings of Asia, guitarist Steve Howe has always been a team player. At 65, he's been bending strings with the best of them for the better part of four decades. And although he became a legendary guitarist with Yes, Howe is now out on tour with a reunited Asia, pumping out those early '80s hits like "Heat of the Moment" and "The Smile Has Left Your Eyes."
Speaking from a tour stop in San Francisco and in anticipation of Asia's gig on Friday night at the Granada, Howe spoke about everything from being a vegetarian to indirectly being responsible for punk rock. 
It's been awhile since you've been to Texas.
Yes, that's true. I guess it has.
Perhaps we can rustle you up some barbecue.
Well, it needs to be vegetarian barbecue. I am a vegetarian, been so for 40 years. I've brought up children who are vegetarian. They could do whatever the hell they liked once they grew up, but at least they knew what vegetarian food was.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
