Union 5-3992 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I'd say try to see Anderson-Rabin-Wakeman instead. The current lineup is almost a cover band 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Ugh That means no?If you really want to see Steve Howe, then sure. Geoff Downes would be good to see live, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djflex Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I guess I would see them if it wasn't expensive. But ARW was awesome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbobby10 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The only thing that is better about the current Yes tour to me is their set list, other than that, Anderson-Rabin-Wakeman is probably better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakesideShark Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I saw Yes in 2013 and I thought they were great! Jon Davison does a really good job singing. :]I haven't seen them since, though. And Alan White is still in the band, so it's not just Steve Howe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx_rush Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Thanks for the input folks. My excitement level is low, but my inlaws are in town that weekend, so I will probably go just as an excuse to get out of the house ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know, he's back with them. He rejoined the band for the Japanese tour a couple months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_World_Man Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I'll weigh in on this since I'm a pretty big Yes fan(I've seen them more times by far than any other band yes that includes Rush). Anyway, I saw them two times since Jon left. In 2011 I saw them with Syx opening. Styx blew them off the stage. Then I saw them in 2015 right after Chris Squire passed away. They were good and better than in 2011 but still I have seen them much better in the past. It was obvious they were still healing from Squire's passing. Also, Alan wasn't hitting the drums very hard and you could barely hear him. Other than that they were pretty good. That was the last time I saw them. I passed on seeing them last year and saw ARW instead. ARW were very good. I enjoyed it a lot. I would say ARW were better than the last two times I saw Yes proper but not as good as Yes in 2004(probably the best year for them as far as me seeing them live). I'm too young to have been into them in the 70's and so I didn't see them live until the late 80's(Big Generator tour). Still, one of my all time favorite bands. I would say see ARW instead of Yes but if Yes tickets aren't too expensive or if someone else is paying then by all means go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Stopped caring about Yes/AWR live in 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 At this point ARW is more authentic Yes than Yes proper is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djflex Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Well, one thing to consider is everyone getting old. I guess see them while you can is a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
