Yes: Royal Albert Hall, London

THIS TOUR IS appropriately called "Close to the Edge". Alan White, drummer, who was due to perform, toppled over the edge on 26th May and received a eulogy prior to the start of the music. Steve Howe, guitarist, looked like he might be joining Alan in the foreseeable future. His gaunt, facial features and skeletal frame gave the impression that he is recovering from a tropical flesh-eating disease.
