Yes

Ah, the legendary Yes—what an iconic band! By the time they hit the stage at the Tsongas Arena on October 2, 2004, they were celebrating an impressive milestone: their 35th anniversary. Leading up to that concert, the band had just released *Magnification* in 2001, a fascinating album that showcased their evolving sound with orchestral arrangements. It was a return to their progressive rock roots, blending intricate melodies and harmonies, which were their hallmarks. Interestingly, this concert marked a pivotal moment as it was one of the last tours to feature original members, reminding fans of the rich tapestry of their musical legacy. And let’s not forget the emotional weight of this recording—performing *Wondrous Stories*, a fan-favorite, amidst an arena full of longtime supporters really encapsulated the spirit and journey of Yes. The atmosphere must've been electric, don’t you think? It’s a testament to their enduring influence and the bond they share with their audience.
