The first show was scheduled for last night, April 1, at Lakewood Civic Auditorium in Cleveland.  It was canceled.  Anyone know why?

Hey Micky you wern't at that Genesis show in 2007 at the Hollywood bowl were you?  You know the one in early October when it rained! It rained n So Cal in October at an outdoor arena like that never happens! You had to have been there because then I have someone to blame over the fact they had to cancel the encore so my lasting live experience from Genesis, looks live ever, was Invisible Touch! Please let me blame you please LOL

At least for Brian's sake we don't live in Cali...  remember the trailer for 2010 LOL

hopefully no one makes the Micky-Raff connection... we'll get shunned if they find we have tickets to a show haha

hahah...   I wasn't kidding Brian... you might as well toss any idea of seeing Emerson and Lake... something will happen.   California will slide into the ocean... 

second attempt to see Yes in the last year.. this weekend....about to be snowed out by blizzard conditions and several feet of snow.

haha..  I have been the king of jinx recently... must have used up all my good karma to see PFM lay waste to all prog pretenders .. present and future at Nearfest earlier last year.

since then... we had the infamous Yes parking lot show... with an opening act consisting of a  typhoon/lighting storm... stayed to the bitter end till Steve got shocked by his guitar and they gave it up.  My wallet took 2 WEEKS to dry out hahah

the infamy of seeing DT display everything cringworthy about prog..... we left early

Porcupine Tree bore us both to tears in a sh*tty venue... we left early...

Eddie Jobson and UZED which was killer...  but someone forgot to tell the sound engineer they were playing at a joint called the Jammin Java and the show nearly left me deaf for a week hahah.

jinx?... too late my friend hahha.

April 2nd: Glenside, Pennsylvania.

I'll definitely try and make this show. Too bad Palmer isn't joining them, I'm not a huge ELP fan, but I wouldn't mind seeing them perform.

Suprised this hasn't been posted yet but from Gre Lake's Website:

Looks like a completely percussion-free two-man acoustic show. Quite intriguing, this! I guess Take a Pebble and Lucky Man are givens. Hang On to A Dream and I Talk to the Wind, too!
