My fourth Yes gig

My first non Anderson gig, I could concentrate on the two semi gods, SH & CS of course, marvellous guys.
Small venue with a warm feel (and some history which they recall at some point…) but a somewhat muddy sound, too loud and too medium for me. Ah, the classic story, now we act as if the album was good (yes, but not that quite), the best since Drama I believed, and here we go through the long suite with some melodies, some average keyboards and a great sound upright wavering bass. Some good moments. Howe missing some notes, not in a very great form, White in a good powerful one, with no great sound either. David was good, by far not fantastic. Only the BASS was 100% in its place. The power of powers. The setlist, apart from the newies, is still disappointing, the normal best of with a half amused Howe on OOALH. Not bad, not the greatest.
