I have seen Yes so many times I lost count. I have seen Jon A solo a few times and with the Paul Green Academy. David B was not the guy. Jon D tries real hard. There is nothing like Jon Anderson singing Heart of the Sunrise. Sharp Distance. I had to hear his Wonderous Stories.

Those guys are extremely fortunate to be playing this music with Anderson. I think they’re doing an excellent job and, as far as I can tell, they’re not pretending to replace Howe, Squire, Wakeman etc. Sure, this show is a bit more low key than the official Yes shows, but I’m surprised to see some people complaining about it here. Just enjoy it for what it is. Same goes for the official Yes concerts if you like their output. I don’t mind Howe’s band at all but I’ve lost interest in Yes a while ago (I loved “Fly From Here”, but nothing after that). I’m just thankful to have seen them live in 2000, with Anderson, Howe, Squire, White, Sherwood and Khoroshev - a spectacular line-up in my opinion. 😎

Ironically, this is what Steve Howe wanted.... which was YES music to go on beyond the lifespans of the band members. With Jon still alive, this is the last of something that feels truly authentic.
Now (from England) that is seriously impressive. The keyboards are much more prominent and "faithful" in this band (as they should be with 2 players) - and then there's Jon's voice of course!

By the way I did see his old band mate Wakeman, solo, at the Egg a month or so ago... I hope those two can get back together to do some performing! Have no desire to see current Yes, with Howe, who is a real jerk, having met the man. I saw the real -- classic-- lineup a bunch of times, and a few other line-ups as well, over the years... But, the current band no thanks... Howe has been phoning it in for years anyway... The Howe of Yessongs, is long gone...

Steve Howe really was great. And Chris Squire was one of a kind too. But that was way back when. Unfortunately Chris is no longer with us and Steve's guitar playing isn't worth mentioning anymore. It's almost embarrassing. I wouldn't have to think twice if I'd rather see Jon (& Band Geeks) or Steve Howe. Even if Steve was accompanied by Rick. And that is saying something! Jon performing like this at the age of (almost) 80 is truly magical ...
