Did you get LE and the excerpt from The MB, as per the programme set list? We didn’t, but I assumed that was due to the timing issues caused by the failed generator. Expand Nah, they haven't been seen yet on the tour. Quote

Expand That’s a shame, but also something of a relief for me as they’re two of my favourite bits and the thought I’d missed them due to the generator issue was rather annoying. Quote
skb558 Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) I went to Leeds on Tuesday. Having last seen them in 1984, I almost felt like an interloper. I came away having thoroughly enjoyed the show, great performances and great lighting but with a hint of sadness at how Phil must have felt and be feeling on this tour. Yes, he’s a consummate professional and a great showman but I couldn’t help but wonder, listening to some of the lyrics. The acoustic bit was good and I really liked the arrangement of the ‘Lamb’. I freely admit to listening to ‘Invisible Touch’ for the first time about a week ago, and probably won’t listen to it again, but the newer (to me) stuff came across really well as you’d expect. Nic’s drumming was excellent and I got to thinking, as one does…Phil has said no more Genesis for him after 2021 soooo…get Pete, Tony, Mike and Steve to settle whatever differences still linger, get Mike to learn some of the old stuff, persuade a more mellow Tony to play some of the Lamb, and add young Nic to the stew and, hey presto, pre-Trick of the Tail Genesis back together for a tour of the stomping grounds of the 70’s, the de Montforts, the City and Town Halls and a University refectory or two. Does anyone have Tony Smith’s number? 🧐 Edited October 1, 2021 by skb558 1 Quote

Musicman666 Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 What a disaster, …I saw them last at the reunion tour with Gabriel and Hackett and really I don’t want to be disappointed by seeing them again if it isn't as good, …and going by recent youtube clips I think I’m ok just leaving it. Quote

Clarky Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 Lest we forget how superb PC was at his peak, I just stumbled on this 1976 concert footage. Take a look at Entangled at 20:38, just superb and I think the first time I have seen this beautiful song being played live Quote
