I'm not the bootleg collector myself, but I got so interested now I would love to listen to all of the dates to find the version!

One of their best pop songs, if not THE best. It's also one that confirms me as an all-eras fan. It really couldn't be more different to, say, Can-utility and the Coastliners, but I love them both, and to me what they do share is that unique Genesis feel for warmth, melody and a slightly old-fashioned stateliness
Very well put!
A few other artists discovered last month from various radios:
Big Special - This Here Ain't Water
If you listen to the version from that date you can hear that Phil's intro is different.
I think there were in total five nights at The Forum which doesn't help the situation unfortunately. And to top it off, some of the bootlegs (especially some soundboards/FM ones) are a mash up of the various nights, but they circulate as a single-night concert.
I enjoy seeing the various interpretations of that vocalisation. That's the 5th or 6th one I've seen on here.
Legend says that's how Mike Patton found the inspiration for Mr. Bungle lyrics.
Hi everyone,
Since I've seen a lot of posts and threads regarding the tracklists of the albums, I thought of opening one regarding the tour setlists.
I have always been fascinated by setlists, and I started to pick some patterns out in Genesis ones!
For instance, since the ATTWT tour, when touring a studio album, they have always started their gigs with a song from their previously published record:
Another thing I have noticed is that the old medleys or "old tracks" were usually placed during the first five or six pieces of the set, creating a huge variety of tracks among the first part of the concert (a strong opening, a hit, a couple of new tracks, one old song or medley). Or the fact that since Duke, they played very little material from their second-last published album!
I don't want to make this a monologue (also because all my theories might just be coincidental) so I'll go straight to the point.
Select a tour of your choice and re-imagine the setlist! You could "shuffle" the existing setlist or substitute songs but with the "Genesis criteria" (e.g. don't make it all deep cuts or cut out most of the new album, etc.).
I'll start by choosing the Abacab Tour:
You get the
Hope this could be fun and interesting for you guys to do and I hope I opened it in the right section.
PS: Also hope it's not a double thread, in that case, I apologise.
Quite the 80s ballad.
And I remember trying to air-drum all the fills from The Way We Walk cd as a kid (...who am I lying to, I still air-drum along to the song )
Nobody mentioned the "Throwing it all, throwing it all, throwing it all, throwing it all..." part from the live version? The best poly-rhythmic part in a pop ballad ever
Re thinking. He couldn't headline the pyramid but could do an afternoon slot on it
Not sure he would be okay compromising his stage production and set-list (I don't think a "shorter version" of the current set-list would be well received by a festival crowd, it would needs to be a hits-infused set-list) for the afternoon slot.
Given ticket sales in UK and the set-list, I could see him headlining a smaller stage - maybe The Park.
Some artists I've discovered in the last weeks:
Omar Sosa & Seckou Keita - Allah Leno
Montparnasse Musique - Archeology
Loving the mix of Congolese folk/dance music and electronic beats.
Hope you enjoy it, I've seen him three times.
It was great.
Intimate venue (~600 people), just him and a piano, no big production.
He seemed fairly nervous for the first couple of tunes, but then he just performed at his best.
Tim Minchin, tonight.
Looking forward to it.
The 'guitar version' is out on Bandcamp for all the Full Moon Club subscribers!
It was interesting when this came up a couple of month ago ... but now it's just annoying. Who needs this?
It's novelty. It will fade out as a trend and nobody will make these edits anymore.
We're drifting away from the thread's theme of New To Me when we start talking about artists we've been listening to for years. Back on topic, here's an ambient piece I heard on Iggy Pop's 6Music show, by John Luther Adams, called Catabatic Wind. It's from his album Houses Of The Wind. Really nice late night/small hours listening. I've been enjoying this on the headphones, past midnight with all the lights off.
I'm interested in ambient and drone, and hadn't heard of this artist.
I really enjoyed the layers of overtones that create a lot of tension.
It's quite interesting how he works with bass tones as well. Great piece. It reminded me of some spectral music - some of Grisey compositions would be worth checking out and definitely Mortuos Plango, Vivos Voco by Jonathan Harvey.
Echoes of WCD... 8 points for me, one of the highlights of the album.
The Bright-Side Mix has just appeared on streaming services!

Adele - Back In NYC
Ed Sheeran - One For The Vine
Frank Sinatra - Return Of The Giant Hogweed
Orville The Duck - Abacab
I'm weighing in:
Justin Timberlake - The Colony of Slippermen
Billie Holiday - No Reply at All
Harry Styles - The Fountain of Salmacis
Dua Lipa - Burning Rope
To me, it always comes as a surprise when people are shocked that bands play new material on a tour that is supposed to promote... new material.
At this stage, after 36 years, it just baffles me how people are still shocked that the set list from that tour did not include deep cuts from the Gabriel era.
PJ Harvey - White Chalk
