I saw them on this tour in Nashville, TN. As much as I liked this album and as much as I like Yes, their performance let me down a little bit. The only other time I have seen them was on the Union tour in Atlanta, GA. Now that was a great show! But, like I said, for some reason they were a little off that night in Nashville. Maybe it was the fact that about one-third of the seats (in the amphitheater) were empty. I can't put my finger on it. I still love 'em and thanks for posting this!!

@drewper73 I saw this tour At The Greek in Los Angeles. I think it was one of the last shows that year. I have to admit it was rather lack luster. Jon seemed tired, Trevor seemed to be going through the motions and Chris made a couple of obvious screw ups. Started palying the wrong notes under the closing guitar solo of Talk. It was only a few measures and then he and Trevor laughed. The audience was still into it and gave an ovation, but it wasn't one of their best shows.

@IYAMNI That's very similar to what I witnessed in Nashville. I remember Rabin having trouble with the programmed synth part on this song. He didn't stop it at the right spot or something. Also, during the slow bass guitar part on Heart of the Sunrise I was hoping Alan White would stretch his legs a little bit like Bruford does on the original, but he just shook a pair of maracas instead. I love this band & don't wanna sound critical, but there is an expectation to live up to when you're Yes.

@drewper73 No prob. I've seen enough Yes shows to know when they are burnt out. And they were totally not into that night. I guess it was similar throughout the tour. It's a grueling business. haha. Still got my money's worth. I think the best show I saw was GFTO tour in Phoenix back in ...77? I think. Anyway, almost the entire balcony came down to the first floor at the encore and the whole place was crowding the stage during Roundabout. Security just said 'fuck it' and let us go. haha!

This is a great video. How did you get the audio to sound so good!!!! Thanks for posting this.

[IYAMNI]

@jsb779 Sorry, I should have answered earlier. The source audio was already good for an audience cam since it was from an FM feed, but I did use Cool Edit Pro to clean up some of the hiss and bring the back end up a notch.

This Rabin v Howe crap is going on all over the fk'n net and it's 100% BULLSHIT.

Yes was the premiere progressive band before anyone ever heard of Rabin, but his talents brought them into a new age. It was musical symbiosis and that is what Jon always said: Yes is a musical ideal more than a specific group pf people.

Anyone who thinks Yes didn't began until Rabin is a fool, and anyone who thinks the only real Yes ended with Tormato is just as foolish.

"End of story."

I just deleted 4 posts that the author went to lot of effort to write. He was saying how Trevor rulez and the rest of Yes sucked. His account had 0 uploads. As usual, trolls never post. They litter everyone's vids with their annoying bs and start fights that go on and on. Call me a tyrant, but this is my fking account and since I am not the gov I owe no one 1st amendment rights. If you want to hate or unsub me, go ahead. I am tired of this Rabin vs Yes BULLSHIT!

Yes rulez! The WHOLE band.

Odd, I saw this tour and thought it was one of their best ever. I'm a Yes purist, but I love this cd.

[drewper73]

I loved Talk. I still do I suppose. This song is a killer, well-written jam!

@MrTomek997 Tony is just as skilled a player as Wakeman, just look at Si from the 90125 tour. He just isn't into constantly showing off his skills like Wakeman, and isn't quite as versatile.

LONGEST TRIP YOU’LL TAKE IS INSIDE for me came to pass 10 years after I saw this. I have told the story in post part 2. What I need to say is the story is truth. IYAMNI I hope you’ll allow the posts to remain undeleted. They taught me a lesson I hope to share that you may believe your just having fun, but your one second away from death, don’t do it. It was Yes that saved my life. My closest friend his quick thinking and his knowing that of all things in our thoughts we may only choose one YES!

I love Rabin Yes. But I also love ALL 80's Rush. Somewhere, there is a direct correlation. ;)
