They will be playing the whole Yes Album, Close to the Edge, and Going for the One. In venues where they can't have such a long set, they'll do The Yes Album and Close to the Edge. Personally, I would prefer if they played Fragile instead of The Yes Album, but I don't live in the US anyway, so I won't be able to go.

Yes! They're coming to NH! I think there's shows tend to be expensive, but I'd like to try to go.

It'd be nice if I could make the trip down to Seattle in March. I need to see Yes before they retire.

I wouldn't worry too much. They will be touring until Squire collapses in a Zimmerframe in his 100th decade on Earth.

Seattle, WA,  March 3rd......
I will try and go, I have never seen Yes in concert. But hearing these 3 albums in whole would be kinda cool. Everytime they come to the area I make an excuse not to go due to some very bad reviews.....As much as I love 90125, not hearing that would be OK.
 
The Moore Theater is a fantastic venue, that in itself is a treat.

that is going to be one long ass show.  i can't believe i'm saying this, but the last time i saw yes, i got bored...i can see doing 2 albums, but 3?  this is gonna kill 'em.  the Jon is gonna nail it though.  not sure about Downes though.  he has a rough time with wakeman's parts.  hopefully he'll make them his own.

Any idea which venues will be getting two albums and which will be getting all three?

Postscript thought ... these shows aren't going to be that long. If they play two albums its 90 minutes. Three albums will be 135 min tops ... I just watched Jimmy Buffet who is almost 70 play a show of 140 minutes plus and Rush cranked out a 150 plus minute show ... And we can leave off Transatlantic cranking out a 180 minute show.

I think on the Yes website it has which dates will be only 2 albums due to time restrictions, probably the venue rules.

Yes is irrelevant and currently bad.
Crushed like a rose in the riverflow.

If they wanted to get everyone's attention, they'd reprise the original classic lineup and tour with "Tales from Topographic Oceans," Roger Dean set and everything!  

That's about the only way I'd be tempted to go see them again.  The 35th Anniversary Tour performance in Chicago was so perfect, I really don't want to botch up the memory.

Are there any original members left in Yes? Other than Chris of course :)
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
