A few interesting events on August 8 but certainly the most important occurred in 2002 with Yes Day in Philadelphia. Rick Wakeman played a piano solo on Radio WMGK Philadelphia.

In 1991, Yes played the last concert in the North American leg of the Union tour at Mountain View Ca. It was recorded.

In 1998, Yes played at West Palm Beach FL and Steve Howe's son Virgil aka The Verge guested on Roundabout. Beyond and Before - The BBC recordings was released in NZ.

Yes also played live in 1969, 1972, 1976, 1977, 1989 (ABWH), 2001 & 2002.

And one Yesfanatic was born in 1953 - guess who?

Brian...

Great job doing this. It is really fun to be able to see Yes's history this way.

Thanks for all your efforts!
