With this archive we provide you with all the tour dates and the complete setlists of the Warm Up tour with which Peter Gabriel and his band toured all over Europe in 2007.
The first part gives you an overview of the tour date. Detailed setlists can be found below. At the very end there are some statistics.
Originally, Gabriel had planned just a one-off gig at the WOMAD anniversary gig in Wiltshire in July 2007. With the necessity of rehearsals for that there came the idea of playing additional gigs, and in the end there was a small tour of 22 dates. The concerts were (almost) all open air at selected venues, mostly natural amphitheatres or in market squares right in the centre of the town.
Since he had not a new album to promote Gabriel came up with the idea of asking the "Lunatics", i.e. the fans who had registered for the Full Moon Club on his website, what they would like to hear. The outcome was a long list of possible songs that Gabriel and his band proceeded to rehearse quickly, perhaps even too quickly. The sets of the first shows turned out a surprising assembly of rarities, many of which he had not played live for 25 years.
Some songs were dropped during the short tour, others were tried out again, and so there was quite a bit of movement in the sets. In the end when the band would play shorter sets at various festivals a number of live favourites had found their way into the set.
