Everyone has a plan, till you get punched in the face,

Meh, I have seen this lineup when Chris Squire and White were still alive and in the band and they did a decent job on the classics but no Anderson, Wakeman, Squire and White then no Yes for me.

When Yes consisted of Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman, Chris Squire and Alan White, they couldn't be beat. Incredible live performances. You didn't need to know their music at all to be completely impressed. They have an all acoustic performance you can easily find on youtube that is out of site.

Consider that Yes hasn't had an original member since Chris died. Yeah (YES, I mean), they have become another of those acts from the '70s - now comprised of a single, recognizable name (Steve Howe) with a cast of newbies making one final money grab. It hurts me to acknowledge this. At the same time, any opportunity to see Steve Howe perform is worthwhile. The last time I saw them (10 years or so ago) Steve - unlike many players his age - still had razor-sharp skills. Sad to say, but probably gettin' about time to hang it up as a band.
