My ticket stated 19:00 - the reminder email from ticketing agency stated 19:00 and the website stated 19:00 - so why 20:20 ? As an avid 52yr old Genesis fan, living in N.Ireland and an ex-employee who was based at the Olympic Stadium, Berlin was the only venue that I felt a bond to. Access to the stadium great, stage & effects brilliant, crowd 8.5 out 10 and most of the songs brilliant. We were in seats directly opposite the stage but on some of the songs the sound was like a dirge (couldn't differenciate what instruments were being played - maybe it was just too loud) Due the lateness of the start we left before the encores due to transport timings - which was a shame as we had travelled so far to see the band - still I have done it, seen them again in Berlin (seem to remember seeing them at Ice Stadium in the early 70's and Ripples still gets to me - much to the amusement of my friends - thank you for all the work you have done with set-lists and reviews Clive - N.Ireland Berlin - can anyone throw some light on why the show started so late.
