I was quite keen whilst attending Roger Dean's speech which should have been interesting to any YES enthusiast, or anyone who enjoys art.  Well....half way through his speech, some very few members of the audience from different sections started heckling Roger loudly saying, in essence, that they came for the music and not an art presentation. Whoa, what? It was clearly advertised that he would give a presentation before the band took the stage.  You can't sit through what should be an interesting presentation for a measly 30 minutes without your alcohol-inspired rudeness spewing out of your pie-hole?  What in the Hades is wrong with some people?

This is the root of the problem, I assure you.  Those beer-swilling rednecks would have been perfectly happy if all they got that night was Yes playing "Roundabout" non-stop for 90 minutes.

Hi,

I would say that those folks are not "fans" ... they are ash-holys of some kind and if my name was the band ... I would cancel the concert right there! That is just bad, and inappropriate specially when considering how many covers of albums by the band are so well known ... but it tells you that the downloading generation has never seen a cover and they could not careless ... 

I would have cancelled the show immediately. And give the money to charity instead and refunds, because of a few jerks who needed to be pointed out and removed azap!
