Genesis reformed

[idahoblues]

Most of his mates left home when they were 18-19 but he couldn't leave his brothers behind.

Such vulgar comments hurt me. I just want to be loved.

Just seen the dates; nothing on the west coast - really cutting it down now, 1 month on the road max
I’m a huge fan of the band, but can’t summon up the enthusiasm for this. Saw them at their last tour, outdoors at that other football ground, and the set list and level of performance persuaded me enough was enough even then.

My feelings and experience also. Phil has issues which is sad to see but the last reunion was not great either. Fond memories of 77/78 era live will have to suffice...

Sometimes it’s better to have the memories, instead of these memories being overtaken by what’s simply too late and too old.
Still love to listen to their music. And having watched them multiple times in the 70s and 80s, I have no desire to let these memories being spoiled.

Were my favourite band by a country mile until PG and SH left then became increasingly meh. I didn‘t realise they had reformed and were touring again.
Selling England, Foxtrot, Lamb Lies Down, Trespass and Nursery Crimes are amongst the pinnacle of Prog rock albums. I was fortunate to see them on the Lamb Lies Down tour.
I do like Trick of the tail, wind and wuthering And even then there were three.
Cant listen to their other albums I’m afraid.
I suspect that Phil’s health insurance premiums may have taken a hit hence the new tour.

Has any band ever come anywhere near you? I mean, besides Kody Kunt and The Kountry Klansmen.

I'm pretty sure the Good Ole Boys made it. Once.

I saw them on the Lamb Lies Down tour then on the Trick of the Tail one after Gabriel left. As a pure band the latter was better, although the spectacle was better for the former.

They are and always have been superb musicians. I go to see Steve Hackett on his annual tour and am looking forward to seeing him again again in October (god willing).
He is an exceptional guitarist still and plays stuff from the time he was in the band as well as his excellent solo work. If you haven't seen him its worth a ticket mate.

RIP Phil :'-(

There's just an empty space. RIP Phil.

The British prog rock band Genesis are set to announce they will reunite.

Ahead of an official announcement on Zoe Ball’s BBC Radio 2 breakfast show, the band posted a clue to their Instagram page, reading: “And then there were three”. They are expected to tour the UK.

The group last played together in 2007, their first with drummer Phil Collins in 14 years, and have faced constant speculation about the possibility of a reunion in the intervening years.

Fuck me, they will need someone following em round the stage with a dust pan n brush ...!
