This is real rock n' roll! I grew up during the absolute best time in the 60's and 70's and of course the 80's. Tickets used to cost $15 for excellent seats. I used to win free concert tickets from radio stations and once won free front row tickets to see GOLDEN EARRING remember them? Yes has always brought incredible music and always will live on!

After only seeing them in huge arenas it was amazing to see them up close and personal. It was a kick ass show. Even better, Bruce Hornsby was the opening act.

Just a kid with a developing sense of music, I was on my way to the beach with my older, hipper sisters when this song, one of Yes’s few major commercial hits, came on KHJ radio. I fell in love with the song, it’s impossibly unusual and varying sound of master keyboard playing (not yet knowing who Rick Wakeman was) and just after acknowledging how hot Steve Howe is on the guitar while observing Chris’s deft and intricate bass lines, not to mention Alan Whites capable drumming. All this occurring with Jon Anderson’s boyish, fairyland soprano and angelic image takes you to other worlds! Fuck they were tight! I saw them in LB in 73’ when they did the Yessongs tour and it blew my head into little bits that sprayed the seats and people in front of me with glow in the dark brain matter during “Wurm” which was their usual last song. Rick Wakeman and Steve Howe get Into a call and respond toward the end with the synthesizer and guitar that still causes chicken skin that may bleed. Many of todays acts are great dancers and performers but few are virtuoso musicians at the top of their game with their instruments of choice! I’m for talent and skill, not image.
