Im a Yes virgin, I only forced myself to listen to them recently because you guys lost your minds when Chris died,
when i was a 16 year old with a mohawk they were the antithesis.
I listened to a bunch of it, Liked it all while it was on but nothing grabbed me enough to make my precious 32GB. it felt very much a soundtrack to an era that I wasn't connected to
I enjoyed the live show more than I expected, I got to watch an extremely acomplished bass player performing stuff written by a Legendary Bass part writer. in a format where the bass was effectively the lead instrument, whats not to like? the singer kept reminding me of the block from supertramp
but my biggest impression of the evening was the body language of the crowd; the venue was only half sold, all seated so I changed vantage point several times,
the furthest forward i could get in each wing, then just behind the sound man(who did an amazing job, the Centre is a slag of a building acoustically which defeats 90% of sound engineers) and there were a lot of men of a certain age, nodding appreciatively, much like I see at Quo, or Moody Blues, or AussieFloyd but there was a certain feeling of desperation, like they were trying too hard to be enjoying it
