I think Phil summed up Peter's view when he said approximately this:
While Phil, Mike and Tony make music because they had fun doing it, for Peter it is about doing his own thing, about expressing himself the way he wants to.

Peter has been a part of the Genesis thing, but Genesis has never been his thing but his and the other guys' thing. After more than thirty years of doing his own thing outside of Genesis, he must be quite tired of still being styled "the former singer with Genesis". It's like you have won the Nobel prize for physics and you are still introduced as "the lad who was very good at science in school."


Is Peter depressed? I do not know. I would like to think he isn't, what with a lovely wife, his children to care for and play with, his career and numerous "extracurricular activities".
