Sept. 3 they are playing at the Grandstand of the Allentown Fairgrounds. Your location says you are Vermont. Where exactly are you?
I saw Yes at the Garden State Arts Center. A really good gig and a very different set from when I saw them with KeithieW, JamForte and RogorMortis in Braintree (UK). They seemed a bit tired and "off their feed" though at the GSAC. Steve Howe made a number of mistakes -- even with the mistakes, if I could play 10% as good as he, I'd be in heaven.
I will be taking my son Kristoffer to see Yes in Allentown. I saw many concerts there in my youth (when the hell was that again?). It is not the best venue for a band like Yes -- in fact, in their heyday, they would never have played there -- but it's close enough that I'll go to see them yet again and afford my son the opportunity as well.
I'd really love to see Ritual.
