Yes Add More Dates To North American Summer Tour

Prog legends Yes have announced that they have expanded their North American summer Yestival tour that features support from Todd Rundgren and Carl Palmer's ELP Legacy.

The band has added additional stops to the tour including U.S. performances in San Diego, Reno, Boston, Cedar Rapids, San Francisco, and more. They have announced Canadian dates in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary.

The tour will be kicking off on August 4th in Greensboro, NC at the White Oak Amphitheatre at Greensboro Coliseum Complex and will conclude with a two night stand at The Paramount in Huntington, NY on September 18th and 19th.

Steve Howe discussed the approach to the shows on the tour in a recent interview with Guitar World. He said, "I think the presentation will be an interesting one because we're going to play the songs chronologically. It'll allow our fans to really get a sense of our development and how our music evolved album to album during the course of 12 years.

"In an hour and a half, you'll get a nice picture of that period... We want to play things we enjoy, but maybe they should be songs we haven't done in a while. We'd like to have a few surprises up our sleeves."
