BigStewMan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 i was just notified that the current version of YES canceled their shows through February 24th citing "unspecified medical reasons." I had tickets to see them at the House of Blues in Anaheim, CA on Feb 22nd. Their set list looked AWESOME too! Siberian Khatru, Close to the Edge, Starship Trooper...this is very bad news.

BLSamuel Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Bummer Big Stew! My brother and I were going with some friends to see Harry Chapin about a week after he was killed so that kind of cancelled those plans. Our friends had bought the tickets and had no trouble getting their money back. Too bad they cancelled the shows rather than postpone.

fenderbender Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Well....they probably shouldn't have toured without J. A. ........just no way it could be the same.....in 80 or 81 I saw the tour sans J.A. and walked out halfway through.... FWIW I am sorry that your not going to see them anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The last show I saw of a 'Yes' band was less than what I remembered. Like the Who's last tour, I try to remember the way the band was back in their heyday. Remember the LAST true Yes show you saw, buy a DVD and kick back. It's not the same band. Rick's son is scarcely a replacement, the new singer hits the right notes but isn't a substitute for Jon, even Chris lacked his stage charisma last time out. Like the song says 'To Be Over'- it's over for this mighty band in my estimation. Hang up your tights fellas. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
