And you did say original, line up didn't you?

If it was Genesis, then it'd have to consist of:

Peter Gabriel, Anthony Phillips, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Chris Stewart Wink.



Fleetwood Mac?.... the original lineup perhaps....  not sure what Peter Greens mental state is... didn't he find God/LSD and become a monk or something LOL  Shame though... helluva Guitar player.... and it's going on 35-40 years since Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac last performed.. obviously morphing into the Fleetwood Mac that everyone knows.

While not the original lineup, the classic lineup of Genesis performed in 1982.

Well Barratt's dead for starters.

I think he is saying that a band who have not been together for 30 years are reforming. To headline Glastonbury it would have to be someone big,but obviously there are probably dozens of semi-forgotten bands who could fit the clues.

The other whispers (not related to this info) are Eric Clapton and Kylie...

How does this discount Pink Floyd? Syd Barrett never played with them after the late 60s did he?. That would be close to 40 years. Personally, since Pink Floyd already recently played together after their 20 year hiatus, I would prefer to see the original Genesis lineup, but I would have to say that Pink Floyd is more likely, though neither is probably what this guy is talking about.

Galstonbury Festival supremo Michael Eavis has managed to secure the services of a band who haven't performed together in their original lineup for over 30 years for Glastonbury 2007. This would discount Zeppelin, Floyd, Cream etc. Could it be Genesis?

This rumour originates from BBC Radio In the UK and the DJ involved was unaware of who the mystery band was,so this is still idle specualtion but the statement is not a wind up.
Technically Genesis doesnt fit the ident but it would make sense.
