concert-info:
this one was announced many years ago (with a Relayer-set), cancelled, announced again, cancelled again and so on....but finally took place
on this saturday evening. The a bit boring RedBox-venue was nearly sold out. you could buy some of Roger Deans' artwork beside the merch stall
and inside we all sat down.
Yes or the band that names itself Yes today came on and played their set technically very professional, without much emotions, the talking of
Steve Howe in between some songs seemed to be memorized...
So, all you Yes-lovers outside know what they do on this classic tales of Yes-tour. I wished they would have played all the four Tales-songs
in complete and not a medley of 'em.
My faves from this evening: Time and a word, Turn of the century, Tales-medley
Most hated song of this evening: Going for the one (what a crappy version!)
Grab it, folks.
