    Geez, the last time I was at Yes concert was in the '70's!

    Thats awesome! I saw them one time in '91, the Union tour, had all the new and old members together. The lineup tonight is Squire, Howe, White, Downes and the new singer, Jon Davison...who sounds just like the old one, only not so "Rocky the Squirrel". Ive been a Yes fan since the mid 70's, and im a youngun!

    I'd say the same, if it weren't for the Island. :)

    I bet you paid more for the tickets...as I recall, the last time I saw them it was $9.

    I say Yes to the concert, the way celebrities are leaving us you may not get another chance. Procol Harum; when I read Chaucer's The Miller's Tale the ceiling flew away and my face at first just ghostly turned a whiter shade of pale. (14th century porn has that effect on people.)

    Loved Yes when Jon Anderson was performing with them....... but you still have to love Yes any day of the week !
    Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!
