Dream Theater was incredible beyond words. Jordan was absolutley on fire. The whole band is the epitome of musicianship. Setlist was roughly the same as it's been this tour and has been posted elsewhere. The sound was great, right from the beginning. JR could be heard very clearly. For that matter, everyone could be heard very well. Kudos to the sound guys. DT was WAY louder than Yes and is the only thing I can say detracted from what I would consider perfect. Still sounded good, just a wee bit too loud IMHO.
Yes was pleasant, but somewhat anti-climatic following the prowess of DT. Sound was a bit muddied through the first three songs or so, but steadily improved. In all, not bad. Jon Anderson's voice just doesn't seem to change with time. Starship Trooper and Roundabout for encores really rounded out the night.

From the Syracuse Post-Standard website....
"Opening band Dream Theater seemed to have as many fans there to see them as Yes. In an informal count, more fans by far were wearing Dream Theater T-shirts than Yes T-shirts.
