The first concert I ever attended was Yes when they were on their “Close to the Edge” tour.
IIRC Rick Wakeman was not an original Yes member. That would I believe be Lenny Kaye on keyboards. I also remember a thread years ago where some Freepers met Lenny and he is a conservative guy.

That’s Tony Kaye, I believe.

Lenny Kaye is the guitarist associated with Patti Smith. Less Prog, more Punk.

Here's my story. Circa 1971 I was recruited to chaffuer a contingent to an Emerson Lake and Palmer concert in Philly, I guess at the Spectrum, in my Pinto. I guess that means three other guys. Got there and they scattered. Watched the concert and then everybody was milling around and I thought it was over. Couldn't find my crew and I wandered to the upper deck behind the stage and fell asleep. Woke up to a very loud sound, BooWeeeeoooWeeeee etc. and stood up and looked over the railing, and I was right over the stage watching Keith Emerson wrestle with his keyboard. "Oh!" I thought, "THIS is Emerson Lake and Palmer!" I could have dropped water balloons on them, can you imagine?

Anyway, the opening act was YES.

Lenny Kaye on keyboards.

Tony Kaye is not amused.
