Call it a true classic rock triple header--and the quintessential live concert experience. 
In a career first, iconic and Grammy-winning rock band YES will perform three of their classic albums in their entirety, all in one concert, on a special tour in 2013: 1971’sTHE YES ALBUM, 1972’s CLOSE TO THE EDGE and 1977’s GOING FOR THE ONE. Music audiences will experience the albums, each representing an important milestone in YES’ career, performed from beginning to end.
The multi-platinum progressive rock band--bassist CHRIS SQUIRE, guitaristSTEVE HOWE, drummer ALAN WHITE, keyboardist GEOFF DOWNES and singerJON DAVISON--will make a stop in Austin, Texas on March 20th at Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater. 
The tour will mark the first time since 1973 that YES--who have sold close to 50 million albums worldwide--have performed an album onstage in its entirety. 
STEVE HOWE says, “These albums we all easily agreed on--they are complete works in themselves,” adding that several of the songs have rarely been performed live. “I believe the only song not performed in concert is ‘A Venture’ from The Yes Album,” saysCHRIS SQUIRE, “And probably the most tricky of all the songs planned for this set is ‘Turn of the Century’ from the Going for the One album.”  ALAN WHITE believes “This is a great opportunity to show the growth of YES in these different eras--and to relive the memories of these times.”

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
