Yes has been forced to postpone the upcoming European and U.K. leg of their Fragile tour so guitarist Steve Howe can undergo “an essential operation that requires recovery time,” according to a post on their official website.
“This decision has been made to ensure that Steve can return to the stage in full health and deliver the performances that fans deserve,” the post continues. “We are working hard to reschedule the UK and EU shows to a later date, with full details to be announced after Easter. Please retain your tickets as they will be valid for the rescheduled dates.”
“Steve Howe and YES would like to thank their UK fans and hope for their continued support at this time,” the post concludes.
The Fragile tour’s European and U.K. leg, in which the band planned to play their 1971 album Fragile in its entirety, was due to begin April 22 in Glasgow, Scotland, and feature two nights at the Palladium in London on May 3 and 4.
The current lineup of Yes is made up of Howe, Geoff Downes, Jon Davison, Billy Sherwood and Jay Schellen.
