Yes in Manchester

Yes are a British progressive-rock band formed in London in 1968. Their music is built around extended compositions, shifting time signatures, layered vocal harmonies and prominent instrumental passages. The band are known for albums including Fragile, Close to the Edge and 90125, as well as the songs “Roundabout” and “Owner of a Lonely Heart.” Yes opened for Cream at the Royal Albert Hall in 1968. They later headlined Queens Park Rangers’ stadium in 1975, while the Union Tour brought eight members from different lineups together in 1991. The 2001 Symphonic Tour placed the group alongside an orchestra for performances of its progressive-rock repertoire.
