Now I may be wrong, but I think they played the whole thing out all the way thru the New Jerusalem and faded out just like the recording.

that is true, they played it all the way to the end. And they played it AFTER the Quiet Earth part, so it was Cage/Quiet Earth/ Apocalypse in 9/8. I don't know why they reverted back to Afterglow, maybe Phil thought it too demanding vocally?

I just hope someone with Genesis had the foresight to multitrack record an encore tour show (82) where they last played the whole Suppers Ready, and will someday release it in an achive box or something. For some reason that tour didn't have any radio broadcasts and the boots aren't all that great.
