before 'Starship Trooper' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Jon Anderson:Woo! Speak to me of summer, long winters longer than time can remember, the setting up of other roads to travel on in old accustomed ways. I still remember, the talks by the water, the proud sons and daughters, that knew the knowledge of the land, and spoke to me, in sweet accustomed ways. before 'Gates Of Delirium, The' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Jon Anderson:Thank you so much and welcome this evening. Thank you. The energy is so powerful. Your amazing. Wonderful. Powerful. We're going to do some songs we haven't played in 25 and 26 years now. This is a song called 'Gates Of Delirium'. before 'Leaves Of Green' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Jon Anderson:Wonderful, Mr. Steve Howe. before 'Heart Of The Sunrise' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Jon Anderson:Thank you so much, thank you. There's this time..uh in the studio. The early days of the studio. I actually [???] dream sorta vibration in my system when I heard the music being played back through the speakers and I hadn't heard for a long time because it had a sorta sharp yet distance the energy of the sun. First I got together with Mr. Chris Squire on bass guitar. [???] sorta song together [???]. So I sorta thought about that energy and I called it 'The Heart Of The Sunrise'. before 'Ritual' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Jon Anderson:Thank you so much thank you. Your energy is wonderful. So wonderful. When we started the idea of this show we thought about doing a song from the 'Tales From Topographic Oceans' album. [???] almost every night all over the world, thousands and thousands of people get together to have a good time. They call that, in the ancient word 'ritual'. This is a ritual It's beautiful and the earth is listening. The Earth spirits are listening. They're amazing to me. So tonight we'll play for you, just like it is, It's called 'The Ritual'. before 'I've Seen All Good People' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Jon Anderson:Let's hear it for Alan White on drums here. [???] Alan White. On keyboards, Mr. Igor Khoroshev. Just before the tour started, I spent the afternoon with my son Damian who started to play the guitar so I showed him these, these chords very very simple. Unbelievable. He said 'Did you every write a song with them?' before 'Roundabout' transcribed by: Pete Whipple Alan White:You want more? Jon Anderson: Alan White speaks. I can't believe it. |
