Normally, I don't post anything from the rumor mill, but I found this to be quite interesting. First, while there's really nothing to justify the theory, it's easy to look at it as "inside info". Several factors at play make this claim quite plausible:
-Pete's album should have been finished by now, and I would expect it to be out within the 2008 year.
-Led Zeppelin did their "big comeback" at the O2 back in December, and being such a high-profile venue, it would not surprise me if any band were to follow that trend, one of those being Genesis.
-The 1970-1975 Box Set is due out in September.
If this is true, the stars are aligning and looking very bright. Now, it wasn't made clear the show would be with Pete, but at the same time, what purpose would Genesis possibly have taking eleven months off and returning with the same lineup as now?
Pete said 2009 at the earliest, does this not look like an opportunity to essentially "test the waters"?
I really believe this is something worth discussing. If I didn't see any purpose for it, then I wouldn't have posted it...
