Yes<\/a> guitarist Steve Howe<\/a> has given an update on his health, revealing that it\u2019s \u201cgonna take some time to get me back to normal.\u201d<\/p>\n In April, Yes announced they were postponing their U.K. tour<\/a> so that Howe could undergo “an essential operation that needs recovery time.” While still being non-specific about the procedure, Howe explained that it continues to keep him sidelined.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t want to dwell on it too much; if I start talking I\u2019ll go somewhere I don\u2019t want to go,\u201d Howe admitted during a recent conversation with Guitar Player<\/em><\/a>. \u201cI had this major thing and it was pretty difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cBut I\u2019m keeping up my playing and my momentum,\u201d he continued. \u201cIt\u2019s been three months now since I had the operation, so I\u2019m making progress, slowly.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite the tour postponement, Yes have still been busy this year. In June, the band released Aurora<\/em>, the twenty-fourth studio album of the group\u2019s prolific career. During the Guitar Player<\/em> conversation, Howe admitted it was \u201cimmensely disappointing\u201d having so much scheduled, only to have to deal with health issues.<\/p>\nSteve Howe: Postponing Yes Tour Was ‘Immensely Disappointing’<\/h3>\n
