    Yes Beach Towels?

    Seriously? The CTTE thread got me thinking and I didn't want to derail that, but ......seriously?

    I wanna know where she got the beach towels from. I've scoured the net and cannot, for the life of me, find a Yes hat and she got you beach towels? Are you telling me beach towels are easily found and Yes hats aren't?

    I've been trying for years to find one. At this point in time, I'm kinda sure I've figured out this WWW thingy, and a search for Yes band hats should get me what I'm looking for.

    Ok, what am I missing here? Beach towels can be bought but a simple damned hat can't?

    Um, really, but WTF?

    No, really, WTFF?

    This has no bearing on the CTTE, of which I will experience serious dislike for anyone who attends this as I live in the desert and cannot even get close to it, but no, this world ain't frakking right if I can't get a Yes hat and beach towels are readily available.

    AND...someone will come on here and show me a hat for sale. I'd love to be proven wrong. Really. REALLY! I've used all the search terms I could think of and found nothing. If you can find one, I love you and you will swiftly receive a very large kick to your crotch area for proving me a fool.

    I could probably find a unicorn, with it's horn attached, for cheaper than I could find a Yes hat.

    So, after all that, could someone buy me one? I'd gladly pay twice the price, three times even, and I'll pay for shipping. I'll even buy you a few shots. There are no other prog bands I can find hats of, beside Floyd and that's just cliche, to wear on my head except Rush, and I'll buy one of those hats in five days. But I want a damned prog band, not prog-metalish, or even my favorite band of all time(Rush). I need a Yes hat.

    You know, there are reasons. Like not being that guy that wears a shirt from the show last night. Don't be that guy.

    I'm not a Genesis fan but I'd wear a hat of theirs if there were one. Just give me a hat from one of the original 5, 6, ....um, er, who are the big five again?

    I've got Yes to choose from, and that's what I want and damned if I won't get it.

    Somehow, someway, I'll get what I want.

    At this point, I'm ready to hurt someone to get my hat. Mafioso tactics and all. The real kicker is my sister was supposed to get me one last year, ate a pot brownie, and it didn't happen. So don't blame me when some merch guy for Yes ends up with concrete shoes at the bottom of Lake Mead.

    After searching for so long, SOMEONE needs some concrete shoes. Seriously, this ain't like looking for a hat from some unknown band. They've been around for a couple of years.

    Please. PLEASE!!! Prove me wrong so I can just buy the damned hat. Life is ridiculous, and I really don't need this. This should be as easy as, well, eating pizza.

    Indeed you can, as long as you didn't leave your towel too close to the edge, allowing it to get wet with the incoming tide.

    There are these tiny Yes condoms for sale as well. With a scent of spectral herb tea.

    Great for the "clothing optional" beach. Would certainly make all good people turn their heads!
