Well I haven't heard any before...but if they're coming here next year I guess it might be worthwhile having a listen.

Starship Trooper is a very good song. I probably should have voted for it instead of "other".

5 Days until the concert.

Well yesterday I bought a YES DVD, and I was very DISSAPOINTED with it
Obviously the editor of the DVD had just bought some new toys, and he wanted to test them out with my DVD, he kept on fading out into from everything to nature scenes to damn FLYING acrobats. It was ridiculas, instead of seeing Steve Howe's cool guitar solo I saw some stupid flying acrobat and I was like, what the hell is this.
The stupid editor was using all kinds of stupid special effects like splitting the screen up into five parts and all kinds of junk like that, I would have liked it more if it was just a good straight concert, like Roger Waters ITF. I was very dissapointed.
But besides the stupid editor it was a pretty good DVD, the encore was Starship Trooper, and instead of just having the guitar solo at the end, they replaced it with an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G keyboard solo from Wakeman, I couldn't believe my ears (the director did not fade out during this part, if he did I would have shot the TV) but of course after the keyboard solo there was the old guitar solo at the end, it was so cool.
Another thing about the DVD, which really dissapointed me, and depressed me. The vocals were obviously dubbed in one of the songs (The Revealing Science Of God).
But besides all this, it was a good DVD, but i've seen better YES DVD's (I have four) this is by far the worst one.

.....AND I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE CONCERT!

WELL, I can't believe my LIFE!
I WAS SO CLOSE!
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!
I had second row seats, but I brought binoculars anyway, it was a WONDERFUL show! The sound was EXCELLENT, my ears are still ringing
Well, here is what the set list looks like from my memory.

Siberian Khatru/Magnification/Don't Kill The Whale/In The Prescence of/We have Heaven/South Side of The Sky/Close To The Edge/Steve Howe solo (he played THE CLAP)/Jon Anderson's Solo (The Birthday Song, and Show Me)/Long Distance Run Around/Chris Squire/Alan White Solo (Tempus Fugit, and The Fish)/Heart Of The sunrise/Awaken/ENCORE: STARSHIP TROOPER

Thats almost three hours! They really stood out on South Side Of The Sky, Wakeman and Howe going back and forth seeing how fast they could go, WITHOUT missing a beat!

Chris Squire really stole the show with his solo's, he played the bass up there like it was a piece of cake, it was so easy for him, you should have seen it!

Rick Wakeman was wearing a cape..hehe, and he was amazing as ever, with my binoculars I got to see his keys close up!

After the show was over we (Oskar and I) stook around to see if the band would come out, we found the buses and they were surrounded by security guards, we waited around from a distance with our binoculars, and after about an hour and a half, Rick, Jon and Chris came out! We, and a few others, got autographs, Rick signed my Shirt!

^This last part is all bull, haha, you didn't believe me did you?
