Grammy award-winning
rock luminaries, Yes, announce triple-album Europe 2014 tour. The band will
perform three of rock’s most influential albums, The Yes Album, Close to the
Edge, and Going for the One, in their entirety.
Legendary progressive rock band, Yes,
today announced it's 2014 European tour, kicking off 29 April 2014 in Oxford,
England and wrapping up 22 May 2014 in Tilburg, Netherlands. On this tour, fans
can look forward to a unique Yes experience; the band will perform three of its
most popular albums in their entirety, The Yes Album, Close to the Edge, and
Going for the One.
Performing three of rock and roll’s
most revered albums, Yes members Chris Squire (bass), Steve Howe (guitar), Alan
White (drums), Geoff Downes (keyboards), and Jon Davison (vocals), will delight
audiences with Yes staples from the last four decades. Fans will enjoy
long-time favourites, including “Yours is No Disgrace,” “I’ve Seen All Good
People,” “Starship Trooper,” “Close to the Edge,” “And You And I,” “Going for
the One,” “Wonderous Stories,” “Awaken,” and more. In addition, Yes will
perform all tracks in the order they appear on their corresponding studio
albums.
“We performed these three albums in
their entirety on our North and South American tours, and the fans absolutely
loved it,” says Yes guitarist, Steve Howe. “Fans did indeed love it,” states
Yes co-founder and bassist, Chris Squire, “and so did we. Plus, we’ll be
performing pieces we’ve rarely played live. In fact, I believe the one song we
never performed in concert before our three-album tours is ‘A Venture’ from The
Yes Album.” Alan White goes on to say, “As with our three-album North and South
American tours, this is a great opportunity to share with our European fans the
growth of Yes throughout different eras, and to revisit the great memories of
those times, as well as create brand new ones. We’re looking forward to touring
Europe, performing these albums, and most of all, meeting our wonderful fans.
It’s great fun for us, and we think our fans throughout Europe will love the
performance as well.”
The Europe 2014 tour visits Oxford,
England; Glasgow, Scotland; London, England; Paris, France; Zurich,
Switzerland; Brussels, Belgium; and a variety of other cities. See below for
