Yes, it was a more balanced set list, but most songs (shown in blue in the set-list by me) were hit singles or were part of the set lists of their tours since they became a trio. Most of these songs were from their most commercial albums ("Genesis", "Invisible Touch", "We Can`t Dance"), so I consider this a predominantly hits set list. And once again, they  played some o the Prog songs in  Medleys, as they have done since they became a trio.

 

Some years ago I gave my e-mail address to one of the now defunct Genesis official websites that were launched before their  present official website. Recently, I received some e-mail messages from EMI / Virgin (despite sending to them a message to delete my e-mail address from their data base, some years ago too). They were offering a new expanded version of the "Turn It On Again - The Hits" CD to celebrate their 2007 tour. So, in my opinion,this tour was more with the intention to promote the band as Hit-Makers, not as a Prog band.This tour also coincided with the re-issues of  the new and expanded remastered versions of their CDs with Collins as lead singer. Most albums from this period are from the trio line-up, and most albums were in the Top Ten of the Hit Parade Charts in the U.K. and /or in the U.S.
