From The New York Times, 11/27:
"In other touring news, the rock band Genesis, reunited after 15 years, has been selling plenty of tickets for its Turn It On Again tour. The 100,000 tickets for performances in London and Manchester, England, sold out in 90 minutes on Friday, the BBC reported. Not to be outdone, German and Dutch fans purchased almost 400,000 tickets in just 40 minutes on Saturday."

Just saw the Press Conference. Looks like Steve's not involved, but that they'll be playing a more balanced setlist than their last few tours. They mentioned more instrumental sections, probably in the form of medleys. They'll play In the Cage, Los Endos, Turn it On Again, probably a selection of hits, something off of Selling England (I'm Guessing I Know What I Like). But no Supper's Ready :(.
I don't know if I want to see this concert. I may just wait for it to come out on DVD. Edited by Gianthogweed - November 07 2006 at 13:34 |

Having read all these posts in this thread I really have to say that some people seem to be really sick in the brain. How can all those people spend so much time just to pour all their hate over members of a band they actually claim to love (in certain eras)? How can you call Collins, Banks, Rutherford old farts (etc.) and then return to, say, Selling England By The Pound. You`ve just insulted these people you listen to! These three musicians play the music you love, even if they made some music afterwards you don`t like. You don`t own these people. If Collins, Banks, Rutherford make a new album then you can like it or not, but it will happen nonetheless. Guys like you really make me throw up.
Now a word about the reunion (which is not yet officially confirmed, which we should not forget): Although I also would have liked to see Steve Hackett being part of the reunion, I have to accept that this is not going to happen in the next time, for whatever reason. I also do not like of Collins solo work after 1992, but I still hope that Genesis could put something out like "A Trick Of The Tail" which to many Genesis fans is the best Genesis album ever. And you know who sang on this record. |

another update from http://www.dprp.net/news/index.php
GENESIS: AND THEN THERE WERE THREE! Again!
Speculation has been rife for years about a Reunion tour but at last
it's looking more solid. On November 7th Genesis will hold a
press-conference where all plans for a 2007 Turn It On Again tour will
be unveiled.
Not much information is provided on the Official Genesis website iteself: An official announcement about the band's plans
for 2007 will be made on Tuesday, 7th November. Full details will be
made available FIRST on this site at a time to be confirmed. But elsewhere news and rumours are buzzing like never before.
The BBC, the first to report about the reunion plans on Wednesday (read
article here)
were also the first to come with news from Peter Gabriel that he would
not take part of this reunion, without ruling out joining his former
bandmates at a later stage:
No further information will be supplied until that date and we respectfully ask that people desist from sending emails, letters and making phone calls for advance information - this will NOT be provided until the official date. Thank you for your patience until then.
"There were conversations and I decided not to be a part of it," Gabriel told BBC News.
The full story can be read here.
His replacement, former drummer Phil Collins, has confirmed he will take part in the reunion tour, which was announced earlier this week. "I'm very happy for them," said Gabriel. "It's not that I've ruled it out, but I've got some new material that I'll be working on." Furthermore, Gabriel elaborated in a video message on his website: "I'm
not involved in this round, or this year, so (I) just wanted to make
that clear. I haven't ruled out the possibility of, of doing something
in the future, but right now I'm gonna focus on, on my own work."
Looking at above tour flyer it seems unlikely that Steve Hackett will be participating in the reunion tour either, although the Genesis Reunion
website does claim the reunion tour will feature a fourth member,
either Gabriel or Hackett. However, there is no source or anything
quoted, so we feel it is more likely the fourth member will be Chester
Thompson or Daryl Stuermer. Whatever the outcome of the press conference on November 7, DPRP will be sure to give you a full run-down of the tour plans in the update of week 46. In the meantime keep an eye on our forum, where such news is likely to pop up first.  JON ANDERSON: The following has been posted on the following website:
After more than 20 years of anticipation from fans around the world, Jon Anderson's renowned album, Animation, is officially available on CD.
So at long last Jon Anderson fans can now add "Animation" to their CD
library. Best of all, act today and you can order an autographed copy
personally signed by Jon. Only 500 autographed copies are available, so
don't delay.
Originally released in mid-1983, Animation boasts some of Jon's most stunning and hauntingly beautiful solo works, including Olympia, Animation, Surrender, and All in a Matter of Time. In addition to the original nine Animation tracks, this re-issue contains two bonus tracks: Spider, which was the B-side of the original Surrender single; and the never-before-released track, The Spell, which was an outtake from the Animation recording sessions. All of Animation's music has been meticulously re-mastered and has never sounded more vibrant, full of energy, alive, or fresh. Also included as part of this very special re-issue are the complete lyrics to the nine original Animation tracks, as well as short stories and anecdotes from Jon Anderson himself, talking about Animation and most of its tracks. It's a rare glimpse into Jon's thinking at the time, as well as his thoughts on Animation, and what the album means to him. |

It's that bit at the end..
Point taken though. Sometimes it is better to use this: ^ than quote the whole post. Back on topic....I wonder why they refuse to invite Hackett....? |

How does this sound like to me?
/me starts saving money for a ticket to England Since it seems this'll be great, whenever they come, they surely won't come to Finland, And I so want to see them. Gabriel and Hackett are artists I would go see if they came here solo. Should they be together, or as 5, I so would go abroad. No question about it. Hm, as I have read all these posts here, I'm beginningto believe that at least Gabriel is in and Hackett keen on it. In fact, if I remember, it was him in the first place who had written the first speculations to the genesis website. I doubt there'll be any problems there if he is willing to join. |

The problem I see is not only a musician thing, but the pieces of information that appear are anticlimatic:
At least in my case, not very insipring. Hope I'm wrong and the delay is because they are already coordinating with Steve and Peter and I'm able to watch the classic 5 or even better 6 with Anthony for the first time in my life, but honestly I see the trio plus Chester and Daryll playing in small venues.

I think it depends on whom they get to perform with them. If it's someone like Mike Keneally, then I would be interested very much.  Come on guys (Genesis) ... if Guns 'n Roses can tour with Bumblefoot as their guitarist, then you can tour with Keneally!  |

LoL if they were three and they came to my country, i would pay no more than 50 bucks, at least to see the musicians who once made such beatiful music, of course i would take my Ipod, turn foxtrot on and imagine they're playing it instead of WHO DUNNIT? XD
btw, you probably already did, but have you guys checked out this genesis torrent webpage? I found some interesting stuff like the full 1982 reunion concert :O http://torrent.genesis-movement.org/ |

I frequent the Genesis boards (before they crashed), and the news fo a tour is not official. This is what we know:
The five of them had a meeting late last year to discuss a possible reunion to play "The Lamb" show at a few venues with the intent of recording a DVD. This is why The Musical Box's license to play "The Lamb" was revoked, because the real band was planning to do it. They still have the rights to play the "Foxtrot" and "Selling England" shows though.
At the meeting, it was decided that they would not reunite in 2006, but possibly in 2007 or 2008 for a 40th Anniversary.
Just last week, the trio lineup got together to rehearse some material. There are rumors that this material is new material, but no one knows for sure. As of yet, there are still no plans for a tour.
Collins has stated that he does not want to tour, and only wants to play select cities in a limited tour, so the idea of a tour being official is unlikely.
Steve Hackett is interested in being involved in any reunion planned. As of yet, he has not been invited. This is unfortunate, but they may wind up inviting him in the end.
Peter Gabriel has said that he wishes to finish his own album I/O, so he will not be involved in a Genesis reunion any time soon, however, he also said that he hasn't ruled out joining them at a later date.
This is really all we know. There is no tour planned, nothing official has been announced. The trio lineup is rehearsing, but they still haven't decided if they're going to do anything yet. They are also considering reuniting not under the name Genesis, but as Collins, Ruther & Banks, or something to that effect.

Even when insufficient because RIAA has no interest in proving the long term selling artists but mostly which album are sales record (Their ideal is an artist that sells a lot in a short term of time (Cheaper), disappear fast and leave the road ready for new disposable artists of bands. I will mark the albums I know in different colors: 1. Classic Rock or Serious bands. 2. Prog Rock 3. Serious Pop bands/Alternative 4. Cheesy POP 5. Rap/Hip Hop/ Others So we can see which public tends to be more loyal at least in the USA market which sadly is one of the less demanding, will omit Country/Folk because that’s almost exclusively USA material. Infandious wrote:
Lets see: 1. 42 Classic Rock/Serious Bands that can be considered Rock related 4 in the top 10 2. 25 Cheesy Pop, one in the top 10 3. 2 Prog, 1 in the top 10 4. 9 Serious POP, 2 in the top 10 5. 2 Country related in the top 10 6. Rap and Hip Hop are almost not represented It’s important to notice that most of the Serious POP, Rock and all Prog are 20 years or older, so they represent a stable line of sales. · So the tendency remains, cheesy POP artists or Rappers sell a lot in a short term. · The most repeated names are: o The Beatles 5 o Led Zeppelin 5 times o Eagles 3 times o Def Leppard 2 o Pink Floyd 2 o If I’m not wrong the only Cheesy POP artist repeated are Madonna, Britney, Whitney Houston and Celine, not even Michael Jackson has two albums. So it’s clear, even in a POP oriented market like USA Classic Rock and Serious bands fans tend to be much more faithful, I’m sure tat in England and all Europe the tendency would be bigger against POP fans because bands as QUEEN and THE WHO are absolutely ignored by RIAA, even though they are not as popular in USA, it’s possible there’s some manipulation here. The motto of RIAA is sell fast and vanish to leave the road clean.. Iván |
