Rick Wakeman is a master! His storytelling is engaging and his piano playing just amazing!!
My experience was very emotional for me. My younger brother loved yes me as well. Last time I saw rick was with him. He loved to playing piano and keyboards. The worst part was that he couldn’t enjoy it with me because he passed 2 days before the show of brain cancer. I will forever remember that show because even though my brother wasn’t there physically he was there in spirit. Thank you
Rick is an incredible talent. Tough to enjoy his keyboards when he is alone. Some accompanying instruments, while featuring Rick, would have made the show much better.
Rick as always is an amazing musician and a great storyteller
Wakeman played with his amazing skill. Totally new arrangements and compositions were great. His 13 yes song medley was beautiful. Encore of Beatles Help in style of Tchiakowski and Eleanor Rigby in style of Prokofviev was stunning.
Easy to get into seating really tight and uncomfortable
This show was intimate and breathtaking, but also a really good time. Wakeman is a virtuoso, and hearing Yes music, along with many other works from over his career, stripped down in this way gives a longtime fan like me a whole new appreciation for these timeless pieces. Pepper in some hilarious stories and a dirty joke or two, and you have a wonderful experience. I also have to say what a fantastic venue the Wellmont is. The staff is great, and they make sure the place is pleasant and the customers are comfortable. And the sound and views are always good.
Great performance from the original Wizard of the Keyboards !!! Especially enjoyed the Yessonata !!! Could have had ticket checking inside due to cold and wind. Hopefully they'll be a YES reunion !!!
Really loved this show! We're hoping it's not really his "Final Tour" He wasn't his usual funny guy telling stories. He surprised us with an evening of just Rick and his Steinway and his Electronic Keys.
Rick Wakeman's, one man show was spectacular. He is an unbelievable performer with such creativity and passion. Words fail to describe the magnificence of his keyboards. And he wonderful storyteller.
