Reunion? Reunion!
Well - sort of. Phil joins his old bandmates Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford for a tour in 2007 - this time without Peter Gabrie and / or Steve Hackett. But there is still hope - Neither STeve Hackett nor Peter Gabriel have ruled out a future involvement. Meanhwile, Genesis announced a 21 dates stadium tour, with Daryl and Chester in their obvious positions.
