There must be some misunderstanding
There must be some kind of mistake

Hmmm, have to look at the dates shuffle to Buffalo or Boston. Hotel rooms are probably half the cost in Buffalo.

I wouldn’t have minded seeing Steve Hackett join in on this as well.

I saw the headline starting with Phil Collin’s name, I thought it meant he had moved to that big performance theater in the sky. Not yet.
Phil might reply; “You have no right, to ask me how I feel!”

From Wiki:

Collins has a long-standing interest in the Alamo. He has collected hundreds of artefacts related to the famous 1836 battle in San Antonio, Texas, narrated a light and sound show about the Alamo, and has spoken at related events.

Just not a fan of the Phil Collins’ Genesis. Duke was okay but it was all downhill from there. I have nothing against Collins. I just don’t care for his stuff.

You need Peter Gabriel to actually have Genesis. Otherwise it’s like the Talking Heads without David Byrne.

“Collins is amazing, perhaps the hardest working musician ever, but you cant replace genesis with Gabriel “

Do you mean you can’t replace Gabriel with anyone else who compares? That was my thought when I read the article.

I saw Genesis back in the mid-70’s I believe at Cobo Hall in Detroit. Humble Pie was the main attraction (soon after Frampton left) and Genesis was the warm up band. To me, they were better than Humble Pie, and I had never heard of them before that.

It was strange. The lead singer came out wearing these bizarre costumes, but man, he could sing. That was Gabriel, before Selling England by the Pound, and the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. The latter album being a masterpiece in my mind. I guess if you’re going to quit the band on a high note. Gabriel definitely did that.

But Genesis’ popularity soared after that, amazingly enough. They had a lot of good songs, but some of their hits, I didn’t like very much.
