Here's some early rehearsal footage of Yes with Oliver Wakeman...

I'm really impressed. He sounds even better than Rick. I can't wait to see the show in Hershey. Thumbs%20Up

You posted the wrong vid.  Not sure if it was on purpose or by accident.  But I'd love to see the vid you originally referred to.

True, YesWorld.com doesn't have all the shows ready yet.  I'm hoping they'll link them as soon as ticket info is available.

I just bought 7 tickets, Section C, Row 2 (that's front and f**king center, folks) for the WaMu Theater.  $325 altogether, but as I've got six friends coming, that comes to about $47  a piece.  I think I've creamed my pants.
 
Any setlist speculations?

We just got ours yesterday, too! Back in the 4th "tier" (I think) at Starlight, but perfectly centered on the stage!

I already bought tickets for them. I'm going to see them on Aug. 4th at the Verizon Wireless Ampitheatre, which (to my luck) is less than half an hour away from my house. I can't wait!

Would you like some Bailey's?

For any fellow Yes fans interested in more info, here is a link to a recent interview with Jon Anderson in which he discusses plans for the "Close To The Edge And Back" tour, including a partial set list! (The interview features some other subjects as well)

From the site Notes From The Edge:

I just got tickets to that show, dead center in the plaza section right behind the boxes. Will be traveling from St Lou for this one.

One question I have... How well will Oliver Wakeman hold up? I was very disappointed to see that Rick wasn't joining the others on this tour....

We are getting to a point very soon where Yes on tour will mean watching the children of the band members all performing under the moniker of Yes, much like an ongoing symphony orchestra.
