When I saw the name "Cruise to the Edge" the first thing I thought of was "Yes". So here I am and your posting above indeed lists "Yes" playing on the cruise.

I've only seen them twice, once in 1978 and once in 1979 when they played "in the round" - which was a circular rotating stage. Both shows had the classic lineup of Anderson, Howe, Squier, Wakeman, and White. I also missed one show due to a family vacation to Florida. When you're a kid you can't always get out of some things, and I couldn't get out of the vacation to see Yes. Oh well. I still have the full ticket as a souvenir. What I really missed was going to the show with my Italian girlfriend. ;-)
