Yes Live Performance of 'South Side Of The Sky' in Las Vegas
Let’s take a moment to dive into Yes’ fascinating journey around the time of their live performance on August 25, 2002, at the Shimmer Showroom in Las Vegas. This show came during a period of revitalization for the band, as they were promoting their studio album *Magnification*, released in 2001. With this album, Yes embraced a more orchestral sound, which showcased their ability to evolve over decades while maintaining their progressive rock roots—talk about a long-standing legacy! It's interesting to note that they performed "South Side of the Sky," a track from their landmark album *Fragile*, which had originally dropped back in 1971. It hadn’t been a staple in their setlists for years, so bringing it back for a special performance felt like a nostalgic nod to their early days. Can you imagine the crowd’s reaction when they heard a piece of history resurrected live? The energy must’ve been electric, connecting generations of fans and reminding everyone of Yes’s timeless influence in progressive rock!
