Official Asia Thread

I don't even know how I feel about this.

So my roommate and I were watching concert tv and that first clip came on. We were all like," Fuckin' Asia dude!", and then we sat horrified yet fascinated watching the shit.
I posted the then and now because it's like, "Asia:We've always been old."
Wonder what the parking lot scene is like?
...oh yeah...I thought we needed an Official Asia thread.

John Wetton has a tremendous gut now. Seems like he'd be awesome to grab a pint with. MTV killed the aging, portly, wrinkle infested rock star.

The show was really a trip. I was truly shocked at how many Asia riffs and lyrics I had still remembered note for note and line for line after all these years.

I love the "Founding Father" look that Steve Howe has going on.

Saw half of this On Demand - Steve Howe is oooooooollllddd. Still a complete freak though. Some of his facial expressions could scare kids away from drugs forever.
