Genesis to kick off Live Earth at Wembley Stadium

Genesis - Wembley vs Manchester

Genesis will kick off the Live Earth Concert in London at 1400 hrs local time. They will perform for 20-25 minutes. After their performance, the band will fly off to Manchester, where they will play their regular Turn It On Again show on the same day. So the Live Earth Show will not affect the Manchester concert.
