Actually I am getting a bit tired of those "Genesis Revisited" tours. I am not that familiar with his solo stuff but would go see him if he did just that (for a change).

Three shows in Zoetermeer / NL were announced today for July 2024. The tour will kick off in Mainland Europe next summer.
Oh, that's a surprise! I thought he'd do Mainland Europe after the UK. Anyway, good for us...
Just in case you missed that:
The Cardfiff show had to be rescheduled after the closure of the venue due to problems with the building that need to be taken care of.

I understand the sentiment but he's found that "sweet spot" with these tours and unlikely to change the formula, especially at (nearly) age 74. He would be playing to much smaller crowds if he focused solely on solo stuff. That being said, I have been following Steve (solo) since nearly Day 1 and have seen a lot of those earlier tours and they were fantastic, with virtually no Genesis in the setlist (then again, he was in his late 20s and early 30s). I consider myself lucky to still be able to see him at this age, not to mention mine!
Steve has added another show to his 2024 summer leg: 1st July in Paris
After three sold out shows - 4th show for Zoetermeer announced!

I recommend to check out this venue when you can. A really great place for shows and it's rather small, so quite intimate.
I would love to see him perform the new album in the solo part of the show (41 minutes). I would like to see him now switch to his solo stuff after all the Genesis related shows which I have enjoyed. It feels like time for him to showcase his own material.
