In other news, from an interview with Prog magazine that's just gone up... Banks: “Nic is a great drummer, but he is capable of sounding like early Phil. For Mike and I, that was always quite exciting. It means you can play some of the songs that you haven't played with Phil as the drummer for a long time. We’re playing old material, but there’ll be some new old material this time. Songs we didn’t play last time.” GAN ON!

wateroftyne Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Phew. Just had a panic. Initial reports were Newcastle Arena, Dec 11 & 12. I have a gig on 11, so 12 it is. Then the Prog interview says Dec 11th only. NOOOO!!!! So then I check LiveNation, and it's November 26th. Phew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skb558 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Leeds is on the itinerary so if the ticket prices don’t warrant a kidney sale, I’ll try for a couple on Friday. Saw them 10 times between 1976 and 1983 when I finally decided it was time to stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDaddy Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 if Dave Grohl can do a gig sat in a chair - and Axel Rose a tour sat in a chair - why can't Phil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Ooh look at that, you can get tickets where you only need binoculars from only £70, or £187 if you want to be able to see them. I think I will catch it on youtube, the view is better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stub Mandrel Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Without any ill-will to Phil Collins, I'd only go and see Genesis if they replaced him with Peter Gabriel and did the early stuff instead of the pop/AOR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never liked the PG era Genesis at all. Which is strange because I love Gabriel’s solo work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Jesus. £70-£180 for tickets at Newcastle. Do they not know we're poor up here? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my beef, top dollar ticket prices for what will most probably be well below par vocals, I think the other guys in the band will be on top form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 If that's what ticket prices are like then i'll be giving it a miss too. Pretty sure they will sell out no matter what the price. Some artists have lost touch with reality of everyday life and the fact that it was the younger and poorer fans that made them so popular back in their heyday. Kinda disgusts me when i see this.

mangotango Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Just seen this - absolutely hilarious. Apart from the idiocy of referring to the 3-piece as "the classic Genesis line-up " (you know nothin', Jon Snow!), they then post a picture of Tom Petty and label it as Mike Rutherford. http://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainment/music/genesis-set-to-reform-after-fans-spot-clue-released-online/ar-BB10HNz8?ocid=ientp The Telegraph.

Serious feckwittery. It’s been the lineup for the best part of 50 years though, and arguably the most successful lineup, certainly in commercial terms.
