Interesting, short piece where the interviewer throws out a variety of topics to all 5 of the current band:

"...if Trevor Rabin were on board."
Squire is right in that they have, obviously, a wealth of material to choose from. They're in a good position in that they can continuing going if they choose to swap out one of the albums they've been doing these past couple of years with _Relayer_, _Drama_, or _90125_. Full "Tales" would be a bit much I suppose at this point. _90125_ will never happen in its entirety if Howe is the only guitar player on board.

I'm not really interested in hearing them do _TYA_, _Fragile_, _CTTE_, or _GFTO_ in their entirety since honestly most of that material has been covered so much these past couple of decades. But _Relayer_ or _Drama_ might get me there.

Downes bluffing his way through "Relayer" . . . let's try, for a moment, to imagine what that would be like.

Hmmm . . . better or worse than Wakeman trying to do it? My vote is worse. far, far worse.

Maybe the two of them together. Downes could work the pitch bend wheel for Rick, and Rick could show him what a 7ø♭9♭13 is...

I can't be bothered to read that, but I wonder - did anyone suggest that they'd like to do _Drama_, _FFH_ and _H&E_...you know, the records that one could argue are records made by _this_ band?

I wonder what size venues they would try to book for *that* 3-album tour?
