Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman concert chronology |
Quintessential Yes: The 50th Anniversary Tour was a Spring/Summer 2018 concert tour by the rock band Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman and their second and final tour. It followed their 2016-17 An Evening of Yes Music and More tour. During the tour, the band performed at the Stone Free Festival at The O2 Arena[1] in London.[1][2][3][4]
The tour overlapped with a simultaneous 50th anniversary tour by Howe and White's ongoing line-up of Yes.[5] This was the final time, to date, that Anderson, Rabin or Wakeman toured under the "Yes" name, though Anderson continues to tour under his own name, heavily promoting the inclusion of Yes material.[6]
