Kanada Kev Posted March 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Not yet. Gotta clear some room on the credit first. I'm just going to get some lawns anyhow so I'm not too panicked. I'm trying to remember the last Yes show at the Amph. I'm pretty sure there was a fair bit of room on the lawn. I can't see it being a sell out. Ya never know though.

mark tonin Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Another show I'd like to check out this summer! I'm thinking a last-minute lawn ticket depending on what else is going on.Peace, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Jon Anderson just played in our town (gatineau) last week and Ollie noticed that a week late. I think that would have been a great thing to get drunk for. Has anyone seen his solo act? It looks like a good time. His voice is so incredible. He is in the upper echelon of vocalists like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOWL Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Thank you for the heads up! I love Yes and was hoping to get a chance to see them next time they came around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyB Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I was at Jon Anderson last night at the Danforth Music Hall and I must say it exceeded my expectations.The gig was very much like a VH1 Storytellers performance, with Jon telling stories about many of the songs.Anderson not a virtuoso like he bandmates in his performance relayed to the audience without saying it that he is the idea man in yes and how in very simple chord structures he was often the brainchild for many of the greatest songs in the Yes catalogue.The first set was by candlelight to mark Earth Hour and the second set had a video screen that had a montage of earth and space shots.A beautiful performance and it has me waiting with anticipation to see Yes again this summer.Peace,Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 cool timmy. that sounds like it was a great night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretman Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I think Jon Anderson's voice keeps getting better as he gets older.....its raspier on the last few albums.not sure if I'll make it to this one, I've seen them about 6 times, also caught the steve howe solo show last year, that was awesome.I wonder if they have a new album coming out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
