Shows will feature full performances of Fragile and Drama

Yes are gearing up to announce a European tour featuring complete performances of classic albums Fragile and Drama.

It’s set to begin in Glasgow on April 27 next year and end in Bari, Italy on June 2, with stops in between including Sheffield City Hall on May 3 and AB Hall, Brussells on May 14. The full run of dates will be revealed soon.

Guitarist Steve Howe says: “This is the first time we’ll be performing Drama in its entirety. Most of the songs haven’t been performed in some 30 years.”

Drummer Alan White, adds: “Drama’s a great album – we decided it’s long past due to bring its life and energy back to the forefront.

“We think the fans will love hearing Fragile and Drama in their entirety, and we certainly look forward to performing them.”

Bassist Chris Squire is currently off the road while undergoing treatment for cancer, with former member Billy Sherwood taking his place.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
