Rick Wakeman and Adam Wakeman on Keytar playing "Tudorock"

[kenflagg]

I love Rick, but I'll be damned if he doesn't look like Captain Kangaroo.

[roas2]

his son is fabio leone!!!!!!

[Neomaxv7]

Father and son! Is awesome!

[1234567890solrac]

BRAVO RICARDITO WAKEMAN !!!!

Fabulooooooooooso !!!!

[11TheOnly11]

Amazing

[bubblabu]

Absolutely wonderful

[PrZemek44]

A perfect gift for Father's Day... :) 

[green3825]

Are you happy now son?

[jamboy3]

Funky does not exist in this genre.

[fdarkbladeus]

AMAZING!!!!! This man is a FREAKING GOD AND SO IS HIS SON!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THE WAKEMAN MEN =0)> <3

[mike28890]

i'm pretty sure i "understand" prog rock. i've been listening to mr. wakeman since 1972. in those 39 years i have not heard anyone as accomplished as him, a matter of choice i understand. i stick by my previous statement, if you don't like it don't listen. simple as that.

[green3825]

So much love there. Can you see it?

[green3825]

I believe he asks his son "Are you happy now?"

[mike28890]

just another fat guy in a cape who helped ruin rock and roll and ronald reagan was just another movie actor who had no reason to enter politics. you are asinine with heavy emphasis on ass. i'd love to argue with you but space won't allow. if you don't like it, turn it off. simple as that. don't condemn him for the people that do like his music. yes, i said music. that's what it is.

[green3825]

@mike28890

You just don't get prog rock.

[Phazer84]

The only thing I dont like about this clip, is the red thing Rick is wearing!

[juanchow56]

At 2.40 they are talking in between?

[YesFanDon]

@juanchow56 - Yes. Rick often talks to other musicians while they are playing - mostly humorous comments.

[dontbelikejake]

@juanchow56 its .40

[MindFlyer37]

@juanchow56 He was cursing because he played a wrong note. Can you tell?

[ben18a]

CAPES!



[vjmanzo]

The one on the left is a custom painted Roland AX1 and the one on the right is a Roland AX7.

[gcrowe620]

just another fat guy in a cape who helped ruin rock & roll

[shammadamma]

@gcrowe620

LOL. If only we had more guys like this "ruining" rock and roll today ...

[EragonFiresword]

Woooow!!!

[pistacchioloso]

Madonna santa che panza che ha!!!

[lordcroesus]

@jphishb04 Pity for you.

[Anttiylarakkola]

Wakeman has a sweet fucking cloak

[mattliebl6199]

does anybody know how to can get a keytar customized like that?

[zzzzzzzz594]

Double merit, carry on both: keytar & his stomach.

[dayrider100]

If he still has it he should use it ..there are still people who love the sound & like to watch real musicians perform ..unlike the crap thats produced today ...the oldies still have it ...

[mattliebl6199]

which keytars are they using?

[NarcissistsDie]

Talk about lost in time. Wakeman is just a parody of himself these days. Let me ask you all this: if these 2 guys on stage were nobody you knew, a 60 year old in a cape and his long haired lanky son waving, what can only be described as a musical abomination, around in some back street pub... you'd laugh your bollocks off and throw bottles at them. It's EMBARRASSING - why can't Wakeman just stop this dreadful, cringeworthy cabaret and show a bit of dignity in his old age?

[CavemanZX]

@NarcissistsDie He's not wearing it to a pub for christ sakes, he's wearing this attire while playing a medieval concept album. Everything was built around the album, be it the location of the show, the attire everyone wore, etc. I suggest you find the video of him showing some dignity playing Silent Night with his son and other videos when he's actually NOT in character for a show. Hell they even had Brian Blessed at this show as a narrator. The event was more akin to a play then concert!

[NarcissistsDie]

@CavemanZX I also love how they look into each others eyes as they fiddle with their instruments. It's fukin hilarious.

[progressiverocker12]

@NarcissistsDie Why should he stop when large crowds like this still listen to his music.

[NarcissistsDie]

@progressiverocker12 I'm not on about him stopping playing, I'm on about him packing this kind of cringe-worthy nonsense in. Wandering around the stage in fancy dress, his gut hanging out and a fukin keyboard strapped to him like some God awful 80's/70's mutation. You know, as a fan of some of his music, people ARE allowed to disapprove you know. Not all Wakeman fans love everything he does by default - you are allowed to say that some of it is shit because it clearly is. Delusional people.

[progressiverocker12]

@NarcissistsDie I see your point. Just because your a fan doesn't mean you have to like everything he does. Your clearly not into this kind of thing he does and that's fair enough although I personally woudn't say that people are delusional for liking it. Each to there own.

[snotmale]

@NarcissistsDie although, of course he does have a great sense of humor and chances are it is a piss take!

[NarcissistsDie]

@snotmale Yeah, it's at the end, on that last note, he pretends to suffer another heart attack. What a joker.

[snotmale]

@NarcissistsDie he is a a curry-holic - totally obsessed with the stuff... and Brentford Football Club! Difficult to say which did it for him!

[cpintura]

THE KING RICK WAKEMAN

[bleekblock]

He is a little flabby in the middle

[ZupraVisor]

XDDDDD!!! looks like wakeman got a lot of free time

[Thegirlshine8]

LIGUE JHÁ!!!!!

[ProjectsTJ]

Its the song "Robot Man" I think, at least the background rythm is.

[YesFanDon]

No, the song is called Tudorock. It's a new song written specifically to go along with the rest of the 6 Wives songs.

[SynthJocky]

Amazing keytar duel! =D

[jeevespreston]

Wow! One of the truly most gifted musicians of our time. Argue gear all you want, the man is a musical genius, and can make a simple resonance sweep lay like a golden egg...

[badflames]

amazing! and yeah i love keytar!! :-)

[dvamateur]

I love Rick Wakeman. However, I prefer the KX5 and Chick Corea. The Roland controller is not my thing. I think that the Yamaha KX5 was better. Too bad they stopped producting it.

[Ieghairdude]

It won't happen. Chris said that Jon and Rick were ofically replaced by Oliver and David. ):

[Wojar99]

REALLY?! Tell me it's a joke! I quite like Oliver and Benoit but Rick and Jon are 100000 times better than them....!!!

[Ieghairdude]

yup, they're recording their new album with oliver and david.

[Wojar99]

O! Thanks for info ;) (But Why without JON!!??)

[xxKALEMxx]

Wonderful piece of music, amazingly played by two great musicians! Adam´s really talented, he´s almost as good as his dad. I couldn´t get this music out of my head for days! Great song, great concert.

[MIXOLYDIAN123]

@xxKALEMxx Actually, if you ask Rick, he'll say Adam is technically much more versatile and agile on the keys than himself. Adam 'owns' his dad on the Keytar - but of course, he's not going to upstage him here.

[Martianfan]

I have this on CD and DVD. Just fanstastic! I wish I`ve been there!

[Raymantico]

beyond boring

[eennymo]

Both amazing musicians!!!

[Jonwsm]

Dvd and Blu-ray out on October 5th (in the UK at least).

[AllStarBugler]

I travelled from Philadelphia for both shows. Didn't realize they were so many Americans there. It was a great 2 nights. Bought CDs from each night.

[Lunarmoonbase2]

You traveled from Philly to wherever this concert took place? Unless you have a boat, you probably watched this in the US as well. You mean to say you didn't know there were so many Americans in America? Must be all that spotted dick. If you don't like Americans, then you can just skip on back to the land of tasteless food and rotting teeth.

[AllStarBugler]

Yes. My reply should have stated that I didn't know there were so many Americans at the concert, because I didn't run into any Americans at either show, Sorry for the misunderstanding. Why so angry and apparantly jealous of my trip to England to see these concerts?

[YesFanDon]

He's a wonderful musician. I flew from Atlanta, GA, USA to see the show, and it was a lifetime highlight. I hear the DVD will be out in October. I only hope Rick will compose with Jon, Chris, Steve and Alan and the fab five will come out with a new album!

[davcar23]

Judging from YES's last album Magnification and Ricks performances IMHO they should let Rick compose everything if they every do a new album again.

[WakemanFan90]

it was an AMAZING concert, i met Rick, Adam and Oliver, it was PERFECT

[Shellewell]

you met rick, adam and oliver? 3 of my top 5 keyboard players in one go! I saw Yes with oliver on keyboards just last thursday though, was great

[boss47uk]

I was there on the Friday Night, and agree with everyone else, thats posted here that it was a great gig :) still listening to the CD's 2 weeks later

[YesFanDon]

Well, no doubt you do. They sold live CDs of the show at the shows each night.

[aureliosjc]

I HAVE ALL THE SHOW IN MP3!

[progrockwannabe]

I traveled all the way from Phoenix AZ to see this concert and it was well worth every penny. Truly an amazing show... can't wait to get the DVD!!

[Jonwsm]

I still think about that gig every day. I went on the friday, and had great seats. Shame the polo shirts sold out so quickly. Thanks for the camera info. I cant seem to find one in Britain though.

[YesFanDon]

It was an amazing concert. I am still savoring it a week later. My camera was a pocket-sized Canon SD780 which shoots in high def.

[trontastic]

Fantastic Gig. I was at the Fri.May 1st. Although you cant film i'm glad people have done. Great to see this from a different point of view. I was further back. Well shot YesFanDon. Great quality. I'll be buying the DVD as well, so no-one looses out.

Caught him wandering about during the day between sound checks. Got him to sign a couple of DVD's. Lucky me.

[neil73]

I was there too!

[Jonwsm]

Id love to know what camera you used as well please?

[metalbearuk]

Me too, come on, please spill the beans, which camera took this?

Was it maybe the Sony TG3 or the Panasonic TZ7??

[childchewingcheese]

it was an incredible concert - but people weren't allowed to film it you know!

[Stakeholderman]

We were there and it was truly excellent, a historic event as well as a great gig!

[cerdiver2]

Wow - great! Hey what camera did you use? Great vid too!

[Jonwsm]

The most amazing Gig I have ever, and will probably ever see! A great night! The orchestra could have been a bit louder though.

[0Skyzer0]

it was epic!!!!

[aureliosjc]

COOL!

[carrietide]

I WAS THERE!AWESOME!!

[bubblabu]

I'm jealous :-) . Would have loved to been able to go to that show. Will definitely buy the DVD when available.

[winterafternoon]

That was fantastic. Thanks for filming and posting. It really was a very special event.

[brotherofmine]

Great stuff Adama and Rick were great together you can see the love between father and son. And Nina also says...it was absolutely brilliant!
