I saw those guys in Atlanta, lots of fun for someone who wasn't able to see the classic Genesis lineup live and in person. Genesisomania!

My biggest disappointment in prog is that I have never seen Peter Gabriel-era Genesis, my biggest progrock dream that came close to true is ... The Musical Box (I have seen the Foxtrot, Selling and The Lamb tour), what a mindblowing tribute, I was flooded by wet eyes and goose bumps, so compelling and exciting

Progheads who don't like Peter Gabriel era Genesis should be banned from Prog Archives as Non Prog Barbarians or be forced to attend an Extensive Progrock Education Course

 first you suggest VdGG for the category "Bad Prog" and now this ....why I ougttta......bah, I'll let this one slide being that you're my RPI mentor ....but for future reference: be careful
About the Musical Box, I've caught some bad luck because they're going to be in Philadelphia (about 4-5 hour drive from my home) just before my final exams in December
 ...if only they'd waited another two weeks to hit the Pennsylvania/Maryland area....I sooooo want to see them! |

You bet there are! And I live in Rome too
 ...Seriously, I can't decide now, because my life is a bit hectic. I'm not a big Genesis fan anyway, but I might convert and decide to drop in... |

A Prog concert is always an event! It doesn't matter if hated the Prog Metal and under house plays a Prog Metal band! Because If you love Prog Music... All Prog Rock genre is in your heart!
I prefer the Heavy side of Prog... and Genesis isn't in this category. But For history and music is a great band. And this fact suffice to love any band have to that to do with them.

Hi Guys,
Well, I won't be in Rome, but what about Amsterdam on October, 20th (a Saturday) for the "Foxtrot" show (I already asked this to Erik but got no reply) ? Or on November 3rd (another Saturday) featuring the "Selling" black show. as well in Brussels ? I even have two spare tickets for the latter concert (1st class tickets, eight row or so - face value of course : 52,50 €).
And actually the most thrilling concert of all will take place in Duisbourg (Germany) on the night of the 31st of October (a Wednesday). That night, the Musical Box will play a concert that Genesis hs never played (nor The Musical Box).
That night a BEST OF Genesis will be played. Yes, sir ! This concert is organized by the German Genesis fan club. I still have to buy my ticket but I 'll definitely go there.
After these three concerts, I will have accumulated nine "The Musical Box" concerts of which two at the Royal Albert Hall (the White Selling + The Lamb), one in Strasbourg (The Lamb) and five in Brussels.
If someone leaves from Brussels, maybe we could share my car to do so (I 'm living in Wavre, about 30 KM south-east from Brussels).
Everything you have read from the band is true. They are really amazing. Cheers.

Sorry ZowieZiggy for not answering but this time I am not attending The Musical Box their gigs, I have seen them five times and the tickets are quite expensive. But that gig in Germany sounds thrilling! It looks or you are an even more early Genesis freak than me, 9 times The Musical Box, wow |

Hi Erik,
Actually I'm in Genesis since I'am forteen (in 1973). I saw "The Lamb" tour in Brussels (April 75) and three times while they were four : in 76 with Brufford (another great experience) and twice in 77. Since they were very popular in Belgium (their first concert ever out of the UK took place in Brussels in March 71), they played two consecutive nights at Forest National (Brussels) n June 77. I was there twice, first row (well actually there were no row since I was just sitting on the floor).
Nice souvenirs. A friend of mine had even a great recording of the second night but it all burned with his house some four years ago. I never recalled he had this, so I had no copy. I will never forgive me this.
Anyway (they say she comes on a pale horse, but I'm sure I hear a train,...ooops), yes I do love Genesis even if I wasn't there for their "reunion" (but is this Genesis) ?
But I am almost sure that we will get one TRUE Genesis reunion. SInce the announcement of the Led Zep one (in another style, but they also are an integrant part of my youth back to ...1970) it proves that nothing is impossible.
So, let's be confident. It is now just a matter of when it will occur.
Best regards. And I will definitely report these concerts if I find the time. These reviewings are really eating me up.
Cheers.
Daniel.

I am not jealous ZowieZiggy on you having seen all those early Genesis gigs, not at all ............
   !But seriously, you should have been on the Symforce After Party at my home, we have watched very rare early Genesis footage on DVD, you can PM me about that And about that Genesis reunion of the classical line-up, even if they will perform on Antartica or Eastern Island, I will go, money is no item, I will try to get a ticket!Edited by erik neuteboom - September 26 2007 at 14:50 |

I'm sure they'll come closer; but as far as money is concerned, I guess it won't be cheap. But we'll be there whatever the price I guess ? We could already start our savings.
I have also read that you went to some sort of prog conference lately (September 15th). Actually I saw the information about the event too late because getting Focus, Riverside, Pendragon and Flower Kings on the same day must have been quite an experience.
It might be interesting to share this sort of happening on PA. I read about it on the Pendragon web-site but also when I was reviewing the last "Riverside" EP. You mention that you were going to that gig. How was it ?
It reminds me that fantastic afternoon during which I saw "Knight Area", "La Mascherra Di cera" and "Riverside" some two years ago in Verviers (Spirit of 66).
Take care,
Daniel.
