YES – First time in NZ. One Show Only. 1 APRIL
The world’s most quintessential prog-rock band YES will perform in New Zealand for the first time on 1 April, 2012.
YES – The Legendary, Grammy® Award winning prog-rock band that has defined many a generation features a lineup of guitarist Steve Howe, bassist Chris Squire, drummer Alan White, singer Jon Davison and keyboard player Geoff Downes..
FLY FROM HERE is the first album YES has recorded for close to a decade and The return of Horn along with the Maestro’s that make up YES has brought back the fluid freedom that their music’s ingenuity is best known for. (See reviews below of their recent UK performances)
YES holds a shrewd insight and creative vision that challenges audiences as they stretch the boundaries of music, and their new album FLY FROM HERE was produced by the legendary Trevor Horn in the spirit that YES was founded.
YES’ performance will feature the title track from that new album as well as the hugely successful and indelible catalogue of music from hit albums such as DRAMA, FRAGILE, CLOSE TO THE EDGE and 90125. YES’ remarkable career has served to re-define the boundaries of rock for more than four decades. YES has played the role as a dominant driving music force selling over 30 million albums, reaching platinum status multiple times worldwide. Their symphonic use of sound and innovative musical styles have made each of the group’s player’s a virtuoso in his own right.
This will be YES’ first visit to New Zealand, and they will perform the entire concert at the Vector Arena on Sunday, 1 April 2012.
See a review of 2 of their very recent performances – Hammersmith Apollo gig on 11 November 2011 and their Manchester Apollo performance on 13th November 2011.

Starlight Express
Ch-Ch-Ch Boogie is one of the pre-show songs about trains that sets the mood in the arenas for a fabulous night of spectacle and fun in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s amazing roller-skating musical STARLIGHT EXPRESS.
People left the arenas buzzing with excitement about what they’d seen. The reviews were uniformly appreciative, with superlatives such as “magical”, “high-energy”, “spectacular”, “awesome” etc., which is always very satisfying for us as Producers to hear and experience. Here is what one reviewer wrote.
