With this archive we provide you with all the tour dates and the complete setlists of the Growing Up and Still Growing Up tours with which Peter Gabriel and his band toured all over the world between 2002 and 2004.
The first part gives you an overview of the tour date. Detailed setlists can be found below.
The first part of the tour was a bit chaotic, with many shows moved or cancelled. After all, it was the first time in ten years that Gabriel went on tour again, his band was largely new and the show itself was quite sophisticated. Warm-up performances were changed at short notice and the tour start itself was postponed. Later on things would settle down, except for the final show of the tour, which took place in Kaiserslautern, Germany, instead of in the south of France because Gabriel decided to make up for the original date he had to cancel due to illness.
Later on there were periods where he played without the round stage and with a smaller stage show. The final leg of the tours consisted of festival gigs, mainly open air and with a small stage show.

Here is a list of all the setlists from the Growing Up and Still Growing Up tours. Because of the constant changes in the tour production (with round stage or without, shorter sets for festivals, open air or indoor concerts) there were quite a number of changes, though there are also songs that were played almost everywhere.
The early warm-up concerts were used to find the right setlist and the set would still change during the first gigs in North America. The European leg of the tour had a stable set and there were no changes in the shows leading up to the DVD filming. Other songs made it to the setlist only during the third leg, the Stripped Down tour without the round stage. In the final year, for the Still Growing Up tour that was tacked on because of the huge success, the set list changed again. As slower songs were dropped for crowd favourites, use of the skystage in the construction of the round stage waned. For the (generally shorter) festival performances towards the end of the tour the set was reduced to essentials.
