Why see Yes?
yes live!
Yes embark on a brand new tour this year, celebrating over 50 years of their signature style of English progressive rock. In the band's incredible five-decade history, they have achieved worldwide success with their symphonic style of rock music and become known as one of the pioneers of the progressive genre. This new series of dates see the band playing some of their most treasured works alongside deep cuts and lost classics.
Known for their lengthy songs, mystical lyrics, elaborate album art, and live stage sets. The band has seen several member changes in its lengthy lifespan - in 2012 the band tours with singer Jon Davison, bassist Chris Squire, guitarist Steve Howe, drummer Alan White, and keyboardist Geoff Downes. In 2017, they received the honor of an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Anderson still hits the notes with flawless delivery wakeman is flawless bass player extraordinaire great drummer Rabin i knew was great but god he is an absolute monster guitar player exceeded expectations after all he is replacing the great steve howe he is more of a rocker to howes more ethereal sound but i have to say i felt lucky to see this rare talent playing his tail off first time seeing him as part of yes nice touch when wakeman and rabin walked the aisles playing concert was pure joy with some magical pinch me moments stage was a bit bare by past yes shows but who cares? ...

Yes Pittsburgh
I'm blown away at the negative reviews
(Steve Howe yes)i that it was fantastic. But
that's just me. When I saw ARW I thought
Anderson and wakeman we're very strong
but with so much of the show 70s yes Rabin
just not right on the steve Howe stuff. Bass
and drummer felt very much like sidemen.
Billy Sherwood was in such a zone! Great. Jay
schellen awesome. Anyone agree with me? ... Read more

Unlike many of these reviews i was actually there for Boston
So, how about this: I was actually AT the
Boston show, unlike most of these
reviewers/trolls. Almost full house (10-15
balcony seats left) and great view/sound.
I can't help but notice this band actually
PUSHES itself. Howe finds new ways to play
old material. Sherwood clearly learned a
thing or two about carrying a song from
Squire, and overall the band was clearly
having fun. I saw them a year ago, and if you
don't count the encores they only repeated
two songs in the setlist from the prior tour -
A phenomenal treat to any fan, and much
unlike other bands who just play the same
hits over and over...including the Anderson
led version.
I understand why this band had Squire's
blessing. I brought friends who'd never seen
them - They loved it.
A minor detail: Sherwood & Howe definitely
had a grittier tone this time around. Most
welcome, especially on Close to the Edge,
Awaken, and Parallels.
And - good to see Alan White for 4 songs, he
played well. Shame if it's his last round. ... Read more
