Ulli, I’ve enjoyed reading of your travels and concert experiences. I’ve added a link to your review here at:

for the benefit of my readers as I am having trouble tracking down press coverage of the shows so far.

I’m a huge Genesis fan from ‘Foxtrot’ to ‘…And Then There Were Three’, & I’ve seen them several times since Knebworth 78. I was worried about the set-list being too 80’s/90’s heavy, & this was compounded when I saw the ‘Tour Edition’ of the greatest hits album. The upshot was that I’ve sold my tickets for Twickenham, & I have to say having looked at this set-list, I’m quite relieved. There’s 8 songs ( 4 that appear to be in medley versions ) that I would have really wanted to hear in the current set-list. That’s not enough out of 24!!
I would love to have seen Firth of Fifth etc again, but know I would have been as disappointed as I was at Knebworth 92 ( though that virtually ignored the 70’s stuff ). Pains me to be negative, but the Genesis of the 70’s & the Genesis from ‘Mama’ ( good song though that is ) onwards are very different.

I am curious about the quality of the sound. Is it the traditional sound{the quality boom} or just the generic FOH that all bands use now?
I have to agree with you Adie, the 80’s 90’s sound is more relatable to house wives and little girls. I believe if Steve Hackett had let his band suck it up for a year and joined the tour the set list would have been more representative of the 70’s. I would see the show if they played Vancouver…of course. But Phil has skeketons here so i dunno….the whiner.
