06-13-2024 Awaken - YES - Epics Classics & More Jon Anderson The Band Geeks Copernicus Ctr

I still think the 2013 version of this song with Todmobile is the best. It gives me full body goosebumps every time I hear it.

[@TheSwid1]

Let me be very clear, to me.... Awaken might just be the most beautiful song ever written! PERIOD. Whenever I hear Jon sing Awaken, I ALWAYS GET GOOSEBUMPS... Always. It speaks of true beauty - Life itself.

[@lizcenterfield1963]

How old is Jon now? 79? Still singing like this, it's a miracle.

[@judgedby1264]

He's almost old enough to be the President 🤣

[@TheSwid1]

Now that is funny. But I agree that Jon has the most beautiful voice and his words are just mind blowing. We are all so lucky he is still performing.

[@miked.1950]

Maestro Anderson is still unbelievably amazing. And so are the Band Geeks. They blow the band called Yes [without a single original member] out of the water. These guys are great.

[@artmccartan4911]

The stripes Jon's wearing are a nod to the Big Man. Beautiful subtle touch.

[@TheSwid1]

Do you mean Chris S? hadn't thought of that but YES. Yes music has remained my favorite and Awaken might be the best song by any band of all time.

[@Magnetron33]

Excellent audio! Thank you!

[@RaspySquares]

Theres no doubt, NO DOUBT!!! Badass

[@TheSwid1]

EXACTLY

[@Johnny-re9kg]

My only complaint when seeing them a few weeks ago, and here, is that they need a couple cams on the two keyboardists at times when they play, their finger runs projected onto the back screens at appropriate times. I feel those guys don't get their true moments like the rest of the band does. That said, its been 3 weeks since I've seen the show, and it is still permeating my soul and lifting me upwards.

[@TheSwid1]

I completely agree.

[@TheSwid1]

so I do agree with you. I did shoot this with HDR10+ and used those for upload. When played back with HDR support, it just looks awesome like you are there but when the video is Tone Mapped to fit Standard HD, something has to give. Nothing much I can do beyond giving you what I captured with my phone. Still the excitement of the show shines through. Mark

[@TheHackenbush]

This is fantastic, i love it

[@TheSwid1]

Thanks.

[@petergroves8602]

Great performances all round. I think I still prefer Steve's guitar sound though.

[@TheSwid1]

that likely is true BUT Steve is not interested in playing with Jon and these songs are only great when Jon is singing them. Example, YES with Steve vs AWR (Anderson Wakeman Rabin). Only one of these could create MAGIC. I feel very lucky to know many of the artists I post or have at least met them.

Ótima captação de som. O algoritmo do KZbin não disponibiliza seu vídeo.

[@TheSwid1]

You said: "Great sound capture. KZbin's algorithm doesn't make your video available." Were you blocked from seeing the video? Not sure why KZbin would do that for you. What country are you from?
