I should add that I have the full show (minus Perpetual Change) on tape and I referred to it to check for City of Love and Cinema and, sure enough, they are not there. So, my memory, my written setlist from that night and my tape all indeed match. As I say, I sure wish they had played those songs that night. I saw them do Cinema in 99, but I will likely never catch COL. But, that's ok; I have surely seen many many other great songs live from them over the years.

I was at this show. They did not play Cinema nor City of Love on this date. (I really like both, tough, and I wish they had. I have never seen COL in person.)

A.V. Batista sure has missed a lot of great shows. I saw Yes on this night and once prior and six times since. They are one of the best live bands I have ever seen (and I have seen a lot). The only act that comes close, imo, is Steve Hackett on his Genesis Revisited tours.

My memory of this show is of an inspired performance by the band in the face of a once prominent concert promoter (Leas Campbell) trying to get back in the game and forgetting to do any promotion of the show. I recall the arena being less than half full (and I heard reports later that they knew they weren't going to get paid what they had been contracted for) but the effort and energy from the band showed that they were more into playing for the crowd that had showed up than being pissed off at the situation. I have always respected them for the positive attitude and professionalism that they displayed that night.

AV YOU WOULDN'T SAY THAT IF THIS WAS ONE OF THE 1970'S YES CONCERTS. THIS SHOW WAS 1,000,000,000,000,000 LIGHT YEARS BELOW THOSE SHOWS.

I just noticed on the setlist that Starship Trooper is not even listed. I thought they did at least part of it, but maybe I was wrong. Anyhow, this is an excellent resource for YES, getting some of that old angst out made me realize that I am glad that I did get to see them. Hopefully I will see them again someday and they will play Starship Trooper!

This was the first time I had seen them and I guess I had expected slightly more. It did not seem like they jammed as much on some songs. It seemed pretty short compared to their live albums. Jon also kept rambling on and on in between songs and then it seemed like he was making the concert seem longer than it was by talking so much between each song. Even with all of his talking it was a short concert compared to lots of other bands. Maybe two hours. Ninety minutes if you take out the talking and the walking around the stage between songs. Starship Trooper is one of my favorites and it seemed like they did it in about five minutes. That seemed to be what happened on most of their epic-length songs.

I had dozens of YES LPs, and then dozens of their cassettes, and now dozens of their CDs, and I think that they are a great band. However in concert (on this night) they really did not compare very well to many other bands. For example, I had seen RUSH only a few weeks earlier and RUSH had really put a lot of heart into their show (and I only own two of their CDs and I am not a big fan). The Arena was full, so it seemed like they really blew a chance to impress fans in South Florida. I have never gone to see YES again, and every time that they have been nearby, I have considered all the other bands that are coming through town that I know do a better Live show and then YES ends up at the bottom of the list.

This was my last Yes show for 10 years until the recent 35th Aniversary tour. I would just like to say that I dedicate it to my old friend Chris Sanders (may he rest in peace)We attended it together and had a grand time.

Okay,this was 8 years,ago,so i willdo my best to remember,the concert, it was half empty,and i got lousy seating, i had to stretch, my neck to get a good view;About the sets they seemed, kind of rushed,standouts:Heart of the sunrise,And you & I,and endless dream,i rememeber, vividly Jon said something, about we are all indians,or children of the stars;abig collective ?from the audience, but it was cool because it was the first time i saw them in concert.
