    I'll be there with you!

    Another tour, another show at the historic Warner theater. How many more shows/opportunities will there be? I am hoping some of us can get together, preshow at the Elephant and Castle. Always a good time there, if you can get into d.c. early, and with the show being on a Sunday, it should be a bit easier getting downtown.

    If I don't see you at the pub, I hope to see you 'good people", old and new friends at the show. Please stop and say hello. I haven't aged much, just have a little more girth in the mid section. :-)

        Yes we are nearing the end. I wish the band well but I am and always have been an Anderson is a Yes guy. I like Davison and he has done a marvelous job as a fill in but if you want to see Yes music it is a Jon A. show for me.

          It:s always been about the music for me.

          Grateful there have been breakups, hick-ups, rotating members, and reformation along these many decades, Peter.bYhink of the average music group, the average family, a typical workplace or company. "Change taking places", always.

          What would my YES and YES-related shows and experiences be, if there hadn't been so many opportunities over the decades. I love all these guys, and what they have given me. What I have given myself.

          Yes, it will be a sad day when it is completely over due to age, and death, my own included. I have been slightly affected, as everyone else over the years by people passing. It is a given. It has to be.

          Recently, my favorite singer, who became my favorite singer the first time I heard her on the car radio when I was seven, and who I had a crush on almost as long, for over fifty-one years, passed away. Olivia Newton-John was so special and talented in so many ways. Her voice still does it to me. She will forever be part of me.Just like the music of YES.

          How could I not go/ buy a ticket for anything YES or YES-related? Tick-tock.

            I was on the fence with this show, not because of the line-up, but because of the hassle of getting to the theater. I gave in, though, as usual. ​​​​

              Good for you, Davy. It wouldn't be the same without you there. I will probably be working before the show and modifying my schedule to go. I hate driving into d.c.. As much as I would like to get there pretty early, we will see. I paid extra for the lounge, early entrance and the parking that goes with it. Look for me, perhaps at intermission. Hope to see you there. Now that I have my ticket, I am started to get excited. I told my daughter I am going, and she said "I know, Dad, why wouldn't you? How much longer are they going to be touring anyway?" Exactly right!

              I bought a ticket to see my second favorite guitarist in October, Michael Schenker. All of our time is starting to get very short to see our favorites.

                  Hey Rob - this'll probably be the first Warner Theater show in several tours that I don't get to... but for happy reasons. My daughter is expecting her first child right around that time & I expect to be several hundred miles away meeting my new grandson! Will miss seeing Yes with you & the Balto/DC-area Yes Fans!

                    I hope to live long enough to see a grandchild, Brian. ;-) That is so wonderful! Happy for you and your wife. What an exciting time!

                    We'll let you have this excuse this time. ;-) You are a top-notch guy, Brian.

                    Btw, I saw that Joey's band Total Mass Retain, who had what sounded like a pretty good Trevor type guitar player, now has Johnny Bruhns. Those guys have up'd their game even more in the sound and performance department.

                    You, good sir, will have to compose a song on honor of your grandchild. Can't wait to hear it sometime in the future. :-)

                      Wow! Seven of the nine front row seats ( Pit AA ) in the middle are now verified resale, at over 600 bucks a pop. Two off on the side are 500 a pop..That is way too steep! Will see if they sell, and who will be in front of me. I don't feel so bad now. ;-) Even the Platinum seats go for more than the VIP seats.

                        The band and/or the promoters need a reality check with those prices.

                          That is usually Live Nation/Ticket masters doing. Sometimes in conjunction with the venue or operating group.

                            Hi Rob, hope you and the Washington fans have a great time. Was Jacksonville for me this go round, but thoroughly enjoyed meeting you at the E&C the time I made it to that Washington show. Maybe catch you there next time!

                            Regards,
                            Edmund.

                              All the best to you, Edmund, as always.

                              Always a treat to enjoy YES-music, and catch up with old and new friends. Shows, gatherings, pre-shows, introductions are something I always look forward to. Just happy this ride has continued this far.

                              The pandemic was a sad/bit depressing time not to see groups and live-shows I love attending.

                              Cheers!
