What a day this was Sept 24, 1994 at the Metropolitan Center New York City. It was held on the wknd of the Madison Square Garden show. In the beginning there was a swap meet of all YES related material . Jon's new cd was introduced 'Change We Must'. There was a Steve Howe video of all archived material from the band. The cover band 'Fragile' played live and where spectacular. Mid-afternoon Jon showed up and was interviewed first. Trevor was not there, he had a studio date with the GLOVED-OnE Michael Jackson. Peter Banks was next and he played some guitar. Patrick Moraz kicked ass on the piano. Alan would not play do to his hands needed a rest from the extensive tour and Chris was Chris..a Comedian!

A great day was had by all..they signed autographs and had a question and answer session.

Of course the master of Ceremonies was the late great DJ Mr. Ed Sciacky!

What a great event! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed Fragile :-). With Greg's permission (Greg was Fragile's singer), I set up (and run) a MySpace page for him with some songs from "Dusk", a CD he made in 1998. Greg wrote, produced, played all instruments, and sang on this CD. I've uploaded 4 songs from Dusk. The Myspace link is: http://www.myspace.com/gregaldrichmusic

FYI, I made the Yesfest '94 t-shirts. I hope they all held up well.

I'd love to see some photos from this event too!

Cheers,
Krista

So what was on it? Any previously unreleased (still unrealeased) material? Do you have a copy?
