    My YES statistics, what are yours ?

    So I've seen YES : 4 times
    Timespan : 12 years
    Number of different songs I heard : 31
    Songs played at each concert I saw : 2 (Roundabout, And You And I)
    Songs played 3 times out of the 4 concerts I saw : 5 (Owner, Heart of the Sunrise, Awaken, Long Distance, I've Seen All)
    Songs played 2 times out of the 4 concerts I saw : 3 ( Siberian Khatru, Yours Is No Disgrace, Rhythm of Love )
    Number of songs that were played only once in my 4 concerts : 16
    Most Famous song I've never heard them do live : Close To the Edge !
    Number of albums from which I've never seen any song performed live : 8 (s/t, TAAW, REL, DRA, ABWH, TALK, KEYS, FFH)

    I'm sure some of you can guess which concerts I saw...
    I'm interested in yours statistics...yes I know it's going to be too tedious for those with dozens or more YES concerts...

    I've seen YES : 11 times (inc. ABWH)
    Timespan : 32 years
    Number of different songs I heard : Absolutely NO idea, but I've seen all of my favourite album Going For The One except Parallels and it's about time they played it in the UK...
    Soon oh soon the light, Pass within and soothe this endless night, And wait here for you, Our reason to be here...

    So I've seen Yes: 6 times (ABWH tour, Union tour, OYE tour, Ladder Tour, Full Circle tour, 35th Anniversary tour)
    Timespan : 15 years (1989-2004)

    The rest I'm going to look up......

    Re: My YES statistics, what are yours ?

    You actually expect me to remember? ;-)

    The number boggles the mind when you throw in the all things YES-related. It's been quite an interesting ride, indeed! This coming from a group/musical entity I thought was pretty much dead when I was "awakened" to these musicians and all their "wonderous" music.

    I admit that there was some over-saturation for me with the "YES-west thing and the the ridiculous Union thing came to fruition, and I had to give some of this YES-silliness a rest ( me thinks the over-touring at that time while ringing up some cash, cost them some fans in the interim).

    Anyhow, it's been hundreds of smiles over these many years and I've just about enjoyed every incarnation/ musicians and characters. Coming on to this website filled with some very strange ;-), interesting people/YES-fans full of love has made this journey even more truly amazing ( love you, girls and guys :-) )! It's hard to believe the goodship YES is still going (thank you Benoit, Oliver and now the amazing YES-fan Jon Davison) and the possibility to still see each and every brick/ member/former member of this group we call YES.

    Go, YES!


    Only a true YESfan gets "it". Go, YES!

    While I admit the Union album belongs to the bottom 3 when ranking the Yes albums, the tour I consider still the best I've seen and heard from Yes!

    I actually used FY when I made a chart some time ago. Obviously, with only 4 YES concerts, it's easy to do. I found it again in my computer docs and decided to share...I'm sure others can contribute.

    And I chose to not count the Anderson Wakeman I saw 2 years ago. And excerpts or instrumental versions don't count either (for example Steve doinf To Be Over instrumental during the full Circle Tour).

    I wasn't criticising the thread, just bemoaning the demise of FY.
