have changed that on our site, thanks for reaching out!

Copenhagen tonight!
From what we have heard, chances are good that Peter will play another new track for the first time today. Let's see...

I can add some details to the discussion. The german copyright organisation is the GEMA and all tracks published will have to be registered there.
Road To Joy was recently added, as was And Still, This Is Home, Olive Tree and Live And Let Live and ... So Much!
There is one unknown track, Put The Bucket Down.
Then, also "Show Yourself" was added and we first thought it's Why Don't You Show Yourself, but that was registered a decade ago already. So either a completely different version(?) or something different? We will find out ...

I will made a review very soon. It was a very big venue (25 000) inside the arena. It wasn’t the full stadium configuration (60 000). A wonderful evening. It wasn’t sold out : maybe 2000 places left….
looking forward to this!

Notes: Driving The Last Spike - this is a rather unusual long song by Genesis standards. It tells a story based on hostoral lore of the building of the English railway. But unlike many other 10-minute songs, Driving The Last Spike does not contain an instrumental passage - it is a long song, roughly paraphrased, consisting of two similar songs. -
So Much was rehearsed during soundcheck again!
-
-
It was stated sold out a while ago, so maybe tickets became available again?
Gabriel’s site also says sold out.
-
-
Pretty sure Phil Morris lnlws at least some of the details

If you own a standing ticket, you have to change this ticket at one of the special counters there, which will be open at 3pm. Check your mailbox, there is an email from Ticketmaster.

So Much was rehearsed again, but according to our info it won’t be played until Cooenhagen.
Jetzt Kommt Die Flut was also rehearsed and could be played tonight, it will definitely appear at some of the German shows -
Berlin today - open air and weather is fine!

The setlist of the gig has been heavily changed for the Lille show, according to setlst.fm...
In: Here comes the flood, Games without frontiers, San Jacinto, The veil (!!!), I have the touch (!!!), Shock the monkey, Moribund the burgermeister (!!!), Father son
Out: Washing of the water, And still, What lies ahead, Big time, Biko, Don't give up, In your eyes, Olive tree, Red rain.
I like the new setlist: some unexpected songs are in, and some songs played too much are out. I like In your eyes, but it has been the first encore from 1987 till yesterday!!! Three new songs are out with more older stuff. 3 songs from pg1, 3 from pg3, 3 from pg4. Only 1 from So.
Setlist in Lille was the same as Paris. What you saw was quite obviously a bad joke by a fan.
We also reconfirm setlists by people who were there so what we post in our individual show threads is accurate unless we state we are not sure.

Setlist added in first post, no changes.
