He’s by far the best Genesis option and has been for at least the last 20 years or more.

The last official tour was a sad spectacle and that 2007 tour, which I saw on a wet night in Manchester was a bit sub-par too tbh. A set list that didn’t do their past justice fully, and the playing and singing was a step down from their glorious best. I saw a bit of that last night and lasted about 3 mins before finding the Mama tour show from the NEC 84 and the 3 sides live 81 show at Nassau. The differences are just so apparent.

Hackett on the other hand was and still is putting on fabulous shows; highly recommended.

CB... I have to disagree..
And I may be wrong......

I saw The Musical Box,a Canadian tribute band,in Wolverhampton
at Wolverhampton Civic Hall, they were Outstanding ... the gig I went to, was based upon the Genesis 1973 tour...which they played ,back then, at the same venue. It was authentic. Ending In an uprising version of suppers ready, which was a sensational end to the gig...absolutely tore the house down. I'll never forget it.ever.
The Musical Box played again on their tour at Nottingham. I got tickets brought for me and a mate by a client of mine ,at the time
It was a completely different gig.id deliberately selected Wolverhampton Civic Hall cos I knew 73 genesis played there....the Notts gig ( at the roysl concdrt hall )was,imo flat..... The Wolverhampton gig , was genuinely, one of the best nights of my life.
Having never seen the real Genesis, and being lucky enough to see an interpretation of the UK 1973 tour .
The MB at the time were acclaimed by no other than Peter Gabriel..
