They are coming to Lousiville, which isn't far. Got a couple of buddies planning the trip.

I saw them last year when they played some other albums in their entirety. The new singer does a really good job, I missed Jon Anderson of course, but Davison did quite nicely and was clearly enjoying himself.

I saw them on the 35th anniversary tour, whenever they had the original members for it. I was a little apprehensive, because, damn, I hadn't seen them for 25 years. I thought it was a great concert. Given the upcoming concerts set list, I would love to see this.

Does anybody in Chicago want to go to this show with me? Moved to the area recently and looking for metal and prog buddies.
