Notes: Get'em Out By Friday from the album Foxtrot is a classic long song by Genesis with a playing time of over eight minutes, which differs somewhat from many others in its style. It lacks the sprawling instrumental part. Interestingly, the song never became a live classic, yet the performance by the Canadian band The Musical Box has repeatedly caused storms of enthusiasm since 2002 and also Steve Hackett has played this live during some of his Genesis Revisited tours. -
Yes. I wouldn't have posted it if it weren't officially announced.
and still, you don't have a link?
Well, I found some info myself. I just appreciate some evidence, i.e. a link or source where the info comes from.
-
More shows announced (Germany and Switzerland)
-
Has this been officially announced? I mean that Peter started working with them. Do you have a link?
-
Misinformation to either the mastering studio, or the printers, at a guess!
From what I've read on facebook, even the US versions were printed in Germany. If that's the case, then it's really bizarre.
-
Think that's the way Amazon operate, guess you don't end up with old stock that way.
That's their print on demand service - also a reason why this book it not available elsewhere. Biggest advantage is they can easily make updates an corrections.
-
To do songs that way is not THAT uncommon, but yes, washing of the water is a good reference here.
I was more thinking about Father, Son and Here Comes The Flood when I first heard the track.Still grows - such a wonderful track! I wonder how the other nix will sound
-
There’s an updated tour trailer which now includes „Panopticom“

Notes: There is really nothing to add to the comments from our review: In one of Peter Gabriel's few plot-oriented songs, the story of a political assassination is told. The lyrics are based on the book An Assassin's Diary by the near-assassin Arthur Bremer, who shot down Alabama Governor George C. Wallace (Democrat) in a shopping mall in 1972, but without killing Wallace. The song lyrics also contain elements that could be interpreted as parallels to the assassination attempt on John F. Kennedy. The song builds from a quiet vocal part accompanied only by piano to a driving rock rhythm, in which the eerily harmonious saxophone plays a strong part, until the firing of the shot ("and I let the bullet fly...") leads into the introspective final part, which gives us an insight into the assassin's mental life and his obviously problematic childhood. At the end, it is hard to believe that this variety of mood and this skilfully constructed drama only lasts four and a half minutes. So once again a highly dramatic song that was to be part of the fixed live repertoire for years to come. For the piano sound, Peter Gabriel used a Yamaha CP-70 electric piano for the first time, which his ex-Genesis colleague Tony Banks already liked so much and which, with its characteristic sound, was to take a central place in Gabriel's keyboard setup in the future. The skilful use of various synthesiser sounds to slowly increase the mood also points to Gabriel's growing familiarity with the means of music technology. Should you have any additions, they are of course always welcome. Just like your opinion about this song. -
I have the feeling that there might be a string section on stage for this tour...Maybe a little section.
During his videos, PG stated several times how happy he was to see some familiar faces during the recordings. And I read somewhere (in uncut?) that there would be "new" musicians who are not familiar to play with Tony, Manu and David.
It would make sense for this new album as the strings seem to have an important part.
I wouldn't be surprised....
that could be keyboardist Don E
But we’ll see

I have two questions about the upcoming tour,
1 on "the courtyard" and "playing for time" an orchestra of at least 20 musicians plays live. How to play the orchestra parts if there are no classical musicians? It's true that for "Growing up tour" the "signal to noise" sequences were pre-recorded, but only for one song. But here, the i/o album seems to contain a lot of orchestral parts.
2. Will he record one of the concerts knowing that there is no double concert? All the tours of the last 30 years have been recorded on ble concert. Thank you very much. I'm looking forward to June 6th at the Sportpaleis belgium.
Well, Peter has always found ways to arrange decent stage versions and those do not necessarily need to be similar to the album versions. Yes, Signal To Noise was from tape, regarding the orchestral part.
For The Court and Playing For Time, he could use some keyboard sounds for a live version, but as I saiud, he will find ways to do that.
There is no info whether or not he will record shows for a possible live release.

Hey Christian, I'm happy to be wrong so please correct me, but my understanding is, yes the BBC will own the rights to these sound recordings, they always have. But the publishing side that used to be Hit and Run now goes to Concord. Similarly any subsequent official live recordings would earn money for the owners of the sound recording *and* the publishers of the songs performed, which is now Concord for the Mike/Tony/Phil share..
Yes, but we don't what what Concord is allowed to do and what recordings they do now have in charge. In any case there are existing publishing deals with record companies. Royalties from that of course now goes to Concord.
