I'll be passing by the night Yes is playing. In the middle of fucking nowhere. The night driving is endless . Should I go to the show or hookers and blow in Minnemucca?
I'll be leaving Elko on the 20th or would have bought you a beer while you were passing through. There's hookers and probably blow here too. Much better town than Winnemucca as well, imo.
If Allan White wasn't the drummer I'd say go to the show for sure, and if you're a long-time Yes fan I'd say you'll probably enjoy it anyway, but damn White is an atrophied old waste of a drummer, a sad dim shadow of his former self, in a band that sort of requires some good drumming.
(At this point the dishwasher is better)
Is the only alternative hookers & blow, or could you skip both and be driving all the way through?
Hookers & blow can be fun, but that choice often leaves you with residual effects, rarely positive, while the show will be at worst mildly entertaining, especially if it means getting a good night's sleep along with it.
I was the lucky recipient of a speeding ticket just west of Battle Mtn one time after some dead shows in the bay area. $180 for 10 over. I think they just watch for out of state plates and stick it to them knowing they are not coming back for a court date. I could have paid the entire ticket at once, but on the phone they mentioned payments, so I mailed them $20 for 9 months just to mess with them.

The theater at the Peppermill
The theater at the Peppermill is actually pretty nice. Saw Lily Tomlin there.
Expect a 90 minute show, no more. They want you on the tables.

The Utah Arts Fest is going on in SLC this weekend. June 21-24.
Weather should be nice. At least you won't be driving across the desert in 100 degree temps.
And don't miss this stupid-ass thing 27 miles into Utah. http://www.treeofutah.com/

Sounds like Battle Mountain should be renamed Bendover, Nevada.
