Yeah, I suspect that they tolerate each other professionally, because they know each needs the other. From just about everything I've read over my 30 years of following Yes, Steve Howe is a major-league prick. Chris probably puts up with it because he knows Steve isn't going away and most fans want him there. And I agree that one thing they probably share in common is that they found working with Jon increasingly difficult, if not impossible. If Jon A. comes back, it would probably be for a limited number of special performances, but as someone else said on this thread, that particular ship has sailed. Some people don't like Jon D., but that's what they get right now. I'd rather see Rabin and Moraz on guitars and keys, but it ain't happening, so I'll take what I can get. I imagine it's the same mindset for Chris -- just getting on with business, in whatever manner works.
