Yes it has been a while and I hope you are doing well Chameleon. I will be at the Vancouver show for sure unless something really stupid happens like they cancel. Lets hope everything goes as planned. |

My guess is this will be the last time we see YES. It's been ages since I saw them last. I believe it was the Drama tour.

Hey E-Dub or anyone else in Doo-Dah: does anyone have information about the August 6th date at the Starlight? Those tickets haven't gone on sale yet and the Starlight's web site just says "TBD".
Me and my kid (Calamity_Daemon) are chomping at the bit to pick up tickets to that show....

Does anyone who's seen them in the last few years have any comments on their perfomance? Do they play their old prog classics, or lean towards more of their newer music? Can they still perform well? |

Oh, take the plunge and go and see them, you won't be disappointed. They play the good stuff and besides they sound as good as they ever did now. I don't expect to see them around much longer after this either, so if you are at all interested in seeing YES you best go if you can.

I have never seen Yes live, but the name of this anniversary tour is "Close To The Edge And Back". That is hopefully a good indication of what kind of material they will be playing - a lot of classics!
Hey, I also live in the KC area, but I still have not heard of ticket info besides the date and place. Good luck getting the tickets... it seems like our area has had a LOT of trouble with ticket scalpers for recent concerts, ever since that damned Sprint Center opened. But hopefully you guys, me, and E-dub will be able to procure some good tickets (and anyone else around here). |

"July 12: Quebec City, QUE - Quebec City Festival"
I CANT FIND TICKETS ANYWHERE!? Are they on sale? I have researched for hours. I hate it, because I know by the time I find where to buy them all the good seats will be sold out. Can ANYONE find me a link to a site selling tickets to that show?! I will worship the ground you walk on if you can...i beg you!!! i have not yet had the luck to experience Yes live, and I would love to! |

^^^ It's probably just not available yet... Ticketmaster usually has all the listings, and so far for Canada the only ones up are Vancouver and Toronto. Try checking the site once every day or two until you can find a listing.
And if not ticketmaster, I would definitely be checking the Quebec City Festival home page for updates |

The page http://yesworld.com/ywtour.html has info on when tickets are on sale for the North American gigs.

I was watching the Classic VH1 channel this afternoon during their marathon of I Love the 70's shows from 1974 to 1977. If you haven't seen this show there were some interesting prog references all about. But anyhow, each episode started with a commercial advertising the Yes' 40th anniversary tour. They had Jon Anderson on talking about the tour and about his playing with the School of Rock kids. Starting on April 10th they are going to have a contest where you send in a video of you or your band playing your original song and the winning entry will be able to perform live on stage with Yes. I'm not sure if this has been mention on PA or not, but this is the first that I had heard of it, so I thought that I would share it. I was trying to find a link to the contest but no luck. Anyhow, here is a link to their website, which includes a recent performance by Jon Anderson and the kids from the School of Rock that you all might find interesting.

My 20th year high school reunion should be this summer as well. I haven't heard anything about it yet though. Hmm. They probably just don't want me there, but regardless it wouldn't stop me from going to the Yes show or the Rush show this summer either.
