This is something I'd like to see.  Sounds like their focus will be the 70's classic stuff.

The lineup for this tour is:

Jon Anderson
Chris Squire
Steve Howe
Alan White
Oliver Wakeman

ahh, I didn't know they would get so 'close to' the original lineup--those guys always seem to be squabbling about something.

in a related story, alan white has started a supergroup of sorts called Circa. I forget exactly who is in it, but it's supposed to be another foray into prog. I think they even got roger dean to design their logo.  Tongue

they just played at bb kings here last night, but I wasn't able to attend. a shame, coz I think alan is an awesome drummer/musician.

I just might have to get a ticket for this 'throwback' tour. especially if they do 'close to the edge'. probably one of my favorite yes albums!

No Pittsburgh date I see and I'm not driving to Columbus. Bummer.

I've seen YES a few times and they are worth seeing for sure. If you get the chance,,,,go!

Is Oliver Wakeman Rick's son or who? I've never heard of him...

Thanks.  Smiley
It's a pity that I live at least 4000 miles away from any of the forthcoming gigs. (And I didn't know about the Katowice one last year, which is just 300 kilometres from where I live...)
