This setlist looks great! I’ve been worried that they would play mostly from their least interesting period from Abacab untill the boring Calling all stations. This was a nice surprise, here are a lot of goodies, even from the PG and SH era! Can’t wait to meet all you Geneis-fans in Herning, Denmark on thursday!

Still puzzled why they are ending with Carpet Crawlers. And if only they could replace Hold on my Heart with an older balled like Your Own Special Way, or a song like Snowbound. At least that’s when I can go to the loo.

It’s wonderful to see Ripples being played for the first time in decades!

Having some probs cutting the videos to 10 mins, but perhaps this will be “done processing” later tonight. Otherwise I will have to redo it once again. It is the drum-duet on the barstool.

Thanks for the setlist! I was at the concert, but didn’t recognise all the songs, so this helps a lot.

Fantastic setlist!
But why does it say intro on tonight,tonight,tonight???? It’s one of my favourite songs, so I hope they play the whole thing!
I am seeing them in Paris in about two weeks!

Your ‘highlight of the set’ poll is fascinating - a shame it won’t afffect the tour as it progresses. Do they realise the majority of the last songs are the least wanted? Hardly a finale! If they do a tour with Gabriel and Hackett in 2009 we could at least have a set based on the more popular old stuff. They would of course then have nothing to play to the Americans though!
