More Genesis....

That's why print media is going the way of the horse and buggy. It's slow. The Nov issue deadline was probably before the latest announcement from Genesis. No Hackett; I'm not the slightest bit interested. I would prefer Gabriel too but with Steve I'd see them if I could.

I had a nightmare where I was at a Genesis reunion concert and they opened with Sussudio.

It would be cool if when and if they played The Knife, Ant came out for that. I suppose that would only be the London show though.

I dont think that Peter Gabriel will join if Steve Hackett dosnt join!

Ewww. Old men who need money.

lol. thats funny, and true at the same time!

I somewhat enjoy the easy-listening Collins era Genesis

It can be worst... Maybe they will open with TWO HEARTS...

I just read a tiny little news article in the Nov. issue of Classic Rock magazine. The article reads as follows:      "According to the Sunday Mirror, former Genesis vocalist Peter Gabriel has decided to sit out a "money-spinning" reunion tour with the band. Gabriel's schedule is booked until 2008, but vocalist/drummer Phil Collins, guitarist Steve Hackett, bassist Mike Rutherford and keyboard player Tony Banks want to get things moving by next summer. Phil Collins tells Classic Rock more next issue"   Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought Genesis were going out as a threesome and bringing in someone else to do the guitar work?   Am I missing something here?

    
Following one Google search on 'Genesis re-union 2007' I even saw one ticket agency using an 'up to date' picture of Banks, Collins, GABRIEL, HACKETT, & Rutherord to promote this great event.

Funnily enough I was listening to the BBC World Servive this morning - had to be up really early - and there was a report about politicians who never live up to the expectations laid down by their predecessors. Numerous US presidents were mentioned as well as Thatcher and John Major. The reported then said "I'm in Helsinki, and there are posters for a Genesis concert everywhere I look. Now, one could say that Phil Collins was never able to match up to his predecessor Peter Gabriel. Another good example" To which the studio presenter replied, "Of course another way of looking at it, is that Genesis were terrible which ever way you slice it"

You cant get away from the anti prog league. Even at 4.30 am on BBC radio...

I read last year a chat session with Peter Gabriel, where he spoke about is last tour rehearsal. Apparently, the tought about making supper's ready, but it was too demanding for the musicians.

I got to find that "interview". If i do so, i'll quote it.
