Just listening to YES' last studio album "The Ladder" and was wondering if there were any fans here at lit? Anybody going to see them back with Wakeman this summer? Wish I was.
 
Both me and Marksgirl do. She's seen them up close twice and me once in concert!
 
Afirmative on enjoying the music of YES, and,,,, I'm an owner of a Lonely Heart:(

Never had the opportunity to see them, but would LOVE to
 
Yes! I didn't realize they were still together. I saw them years ago and they were excellent.
 
Back in the '70s I was a big fan of YES. Saw 'em in concert twice. Genesis (with Peter Gabriel) was the warm-up act for one concert.
 
Yes I love them...no I have never seen them and right now I am bummed because they are going to be in town on the 17th and I can't go see the concert. *sighs* Oh well maybe next time. :(
 
No I'm not a Yes fan, I'm just ticked becauce I can't afford to go to their concert in Dallas.

*walks off mumbling about not having a job*
 
I have a couple of YES LPs. Never was huge into them, but my brother was a YES fanatic.

When are they playing in Dallas? My bother would love to see them.
 
Some of Yes' work is good and enjoyable. Even owned some of thier albums at one time. But not so much as to be a fan.

That sounds like a concert to die for!

I saw YES in 82 and would love to see them again!

Since you like YES, check out a band called Dream Theater. Those boys ROCK and are very progressive and very talented!

Are they a local band? Or do they albums out?

I used to think Blind Melon sounded like them...until he died anyway

No man, they are a Huge Progressive Metal band and their albums are quite easily found on the Internet or at a Major Music Store of any sort.

Check 'em out. They ROCK! They are THE BAND of BANDS, IMHO.

Should be able to find em on the Net for an MP3 or whatever.
 
cool...how a bout a good song title so I can, umm, take a tune for a test drive?

It does seem a little out of time to be speaking of a current YES album.

Maybe even surreal...

yeppir, I agree..................just not the same as YES in their Prime or before or even a bit after!

Kind of like The WHO, or Rolling Stones or whoever.........just not the same, IMHO.
 
The ultimate battle of the bands...

Who will be the last to perform!

Touche'

KISS will wait until the other guys are all dead and have a "Reunion" concert at like age 75 or something! LOL :D
 
Not The WHO, who...

The former has lost too many members now I believe to be eligible.
