An article from the "Musical Enquirer":
Dinosaurs to reform!
This will be about the hottest news for all fans of prog dinosaurs Genesis! As Peter Gabriel announced today, the band will reform in the classic line-up (Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Steve Hackett, Phil Collins and Michael Rutherford). "We have been meeting a lot recently and thought: If our old team mates Van der Graaf Generator can do it, why not we? The only question was: Will we have enough ideas? And it turned out that we did indeed have a lot of ideas, enough to fill a double album. It will in fact be a sequel to 'The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway'."
Added Steve Hackett: "'The Lamb' was an album that many did not understand at all; we hope the sequel will explain the puzzling parts to the listeners."
The album will be named "The Return of the Lamb." We tried to squeeze some details about the story out of the band, but they kept their lips buttoned.
"All I can say is that a ballett of pink cockatoos will play an important role, and there will be some references to the works of the late Stanislaw Lem as well as to the art of Hieronymus Bosch", Peter Gabriel cryptically remarked.
The album is scheduled to appear in June; a tour will follow, "with a stage show that will be beyond your wildest dreams. Just wait till you see me in my tin-of-sardines costume," Gabriel announced.

Hope it's true but wouldn't they have the courtesy to announce it on their official web sites first?

THAT WASN`T FUNNY

 

 

Ok, it was. It's good it was a joke though. Don't know if I want to see Gabriel in a tin-of -sardines costume or even a sequel to the Lamb.

Thats not even fair...
I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.
