A Las Vegas casino is bringing a Disneyland staple to the skies above downtown.
As much as any band of their day, Yes bridged the yawning gap between the progressive and the populist, crafting dense, yet digestible albums that both musos and mainstream rock fans could dig. There are two bands with current and former members of the group out on the road, playing the Yes catalog in a less-than-friendly musical rivalry.
And they’re both hitting Vegas within days of each other.
There’s Yes, which headlines the Yestival with Todd Rundgren and Carl Palmer’s ELP Legacy at the Hard Rock Hotel on Saturday, and then there’s Yes featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman, which hits The Smith Center for the Performing Arts on Thursday.
Both groups close their shows with Yes’ signature “Roundabout,” and each outfit also plays the tasty, four-part prog-pastry roll “And You and I.”
And that’s where the similarities end.
Yes sticks mostly to the vintage jams, those chestnuts that the band originally played while still clad in bell-bottoms, not performing any selections after 1980’s “Drama” album.
As is to be expected with the Anderson-led unit, the set list reflects Rabin’s entrance into the group and includes a trio of tunes from “90125,” including their biggest hit, “Owner of a Lonely Heart,” as well as a song each from “Big Generator” (“Rhythm of Love”) and “Union” (“Lift Me Up”).
