It aired last week here in Phoenix. It was "ok". 1/3 of the show (20 minutes) was acoustic set but sadly the piano drowned out almost all guitar work. You can buy it on DVD, but there are much better Yes DVD's than this one, in my opinion.

Dude your bursting my little bubble! I was so looking forward to finally seeing this on the 16th up here in the Adirondacks! Darn! Darn Darn I was expecting the concert I saw in September!

I am happy to see some Acoustic work but yeah when the Sound is not balanced for the Tape or CD it can sound great live but horrible on the tape. Dughhh like no one knows that anyway right. I have all the DVD's available online and a few bootleg copies too from Yes but I was looking forward to this one being well worth the purchase. Do you have to become a member of PBS or can you just buy the DVD? Do you happen to remember how much it is?

Was there any good close ups of Steve playing some stuff or Chris? Always looking for new ways to learn.

The DVD is already in the stores. It's only a one hour show recorded in Boston and I think the setlist is: Firebird Suite, Going For The One, Sweet Dreams, Your Move/I've Seen All Good People, Long Distance Runaround (acoustic), Owner Of A Lonely Heart (acoustic), Roundabout (acoustic), And You And I. Some good guitar shots and a lot of slide work. Steve played a Strat on Sweet Dreams and ES175 on All Good People. Acoustic set Steve played 000-18 and some kind of Martin 12-string. Chris played a Martin acoustic bass. Star of the show was without a doubt Rick Wakeman.

Man I have called three times and Emailed PBS?
No reply about buying a DVD from them at all?

I checked their web site as of yesterday and they have all kinds of concerts from the soundstage series including Tom Petty but no Yes concert listed yet? These guy's are always in need of cash you would think they would get with it a little and respond to people who want to buy something?
I will wait until it air's up here and call the number at the end of the show?

Man the show I saw in Syracuse was amazing!
