I will be in London from 11 to 14 october. Might check this out, I am a massive TOTO fan (not that much a Yes fan).

I saw them live in Zaandam (Netherlands) two weeks ago.

They played most of the songs from their new album, and lots of old 'classics' from the early Toto years and the 90125/Big Generator Yes period.

Although there were only about 60 (!!) paying visitors, it was a pleasant evening. For me Billy Sherwood was 'the man of the match'. Guitarplayer Johnny Bruhns (American Yes-tribute band Roundabout) was a positive surprise.

That's where the Yes medley I mentioned comes from. They also do a couple of tracks from 90125 (guess which one of them is), a couple of Toto numbers and the rest are not surprisingly from the Yoso album.

I would expect the latter. They do a medley of Yours is no Disgrace,  Heart of the Sunrise, South Side of the Sky and Starship Trooper on their album, but this is mainly without vocals. The album itself is mainly pop orientated AOR with a hint of prog. It's quite good but don't expect Close to the Edge.

Hmmm... thinking if Yoso members were Tony Kaye, Trevor Rabin, and Bobby Kimball-- THAT I'd get excited about.
