I think this is the perfect live expression of prog style music, in the current era. Talented and enthusiastic young musicians, with a legendary old hand to guide them and provide the necessary gravitas. Jon is rather uniquely brilliant and his back catalogue is outstanding.
We were there on Saturday night too and loved it. A absolutely brilliant night. Such wonderfully talented young musicians and for them to be performing with Jon must be incredible for them. A young man who served us drinks behind the bar, asked me what my favourite Yes song is. He told me he plays in a Band and loves Yes. I asked him his age and he said, 19. How great is that. This was exactly 50 years after I first saw Jon at my first Yes concert, I was 17. And Jon sounds as amazing as ever. We saw him twice in 2017 and 2018, with YES-ARW. They were fabulous Shows. And his enthusiasm and energy here with these youngsters at the age of 78, is quite incredible. Just my own feelings. 🎶❤️🎶
@@StefanieLanger-dn5ghThat does'nt mean I'm wrong. And it doe'nt mean they're not talented. Paul Green isn't providing spots for inner city kids. It's the same group I seen last year in America, who can afford to travel to Europe to play along side a Rock Star?
That is of course the hair in the soup. On the other hand, if these youngsters did not have their parents to support them economically, I would not have been able to see them play in Bad Doberan in Germany, because then the PGRA would not have been able to come to Europe. At one of the 3 fantastic concerts I watched at the Zappanale 32 this year the audience was informed that the shows would not have been possible if the parents had not paid the flight, stay and transport. Of course, it would be good or perfect if such tours and opportunities could be financed for poorer kids too, but this is how capitalism works in the USA (and elsewhere). Unless you find special fundings poor kids are disadvantaged, because they can’t pay tuition for the PGRA Master Program which alone is $3,300 per year, nor can they go on tours. I guess you can’t totally blame Paul Green for this. And you can’t blame the kids for having well off parents. It is not a perfect world.
First of all, The Band Geeks are experienced musicians. These young talented boys and girls are in school. Paul Greens Rock Academy and they are doing a wonderful job, learning along the way and making Jon a happy man on stage. Saw them perform in The Netherlands and I had a great evening.
Would much rather see Jon just himself on stage the woman are beautiful but there vocals are terrible Anderson has more talent in one finger than all these musicians combined not a fan of surrounding musicians 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I saw one of the London shows of this tour, one of the most refreshing gigs I've ever seen.

The only problem with Paul Green RA is it's all rich kids who can afford to go and pay to play.
That’s a rather presumptuous comment.

It’s nice seeing beautiful women on stage but the band Geeks tour blew this away sorry Jon
I think talented young musicians who are aged 15-19 is more appropriate wording…
I thought they were amazing, every one of them was a star.
First of all, The Band Geeks are experienced musicians. These young talented boys and girls are in school. Paul Greens Rock Academy and they are doing a wonderful job, learning along the way and making Jon a happy man on stage. Saw them perform in The Netherlands and I had a great evening.

I’m guessing you’re a motivational coach in real life…
Your spelling isn't up to much, did you mean 'their' vocals? Punctuation seems to be lacking.
