Ok, this is great but I've seen the Musical Box perform TLLDOB three times so I'm thinking is it really worth seeing it again? The show historically cannot change or have any novelties added so I ask myself this question considering the covid hassles and risks that make me PASS (especially since in my case it requires travel).
I'll save it to see the so called "extravaganza" next time if there is one. Now that for me would be - a novelty.

Wow, let the anticipation begin! Two days and counting for the first of the final 3 shows..
Even with all the covid hassles, the excitement is building and Genesis will be in the minds and hearts of all fans worldwide.
If this is goodbye, thanks Tony, Mike and Phil for many wonderful years of epic music, grand memories and being a huge part of my life loving Genesis music.

When Rush played the R40 (final) concert in their hometown of Toronto, it was filmed and later released as a Blu-Ray or DVD.
Perhaps it was all planned but at the time, the tour was not announced as a farewell tour but as a retirement from the road. The idea was that the band would still exist but only in the studio but nobody knew or anticipated the shocking news of Neil Peart's passing early 2020. So that Blu-Ray had even more significance.
Can you tell the similarities here? Genesis will now play their hometown maybe for the final time and even if the tour has a question mark, with all 3 members into their mid seventies and Phil being so frail, to film those concerts would be not only welcome by everyone (specially those who missed out like Australia) but would be a way for Genesis to say thank you to the fans who supported them for more than 50 years.

Nights in White satin - The Moody Blues

has anyone received collector ticket? 2 weeks to concertand ticketmaster still has not dispatched it
Mmm interesting, I had no idea they were giving out those. In Montreal Canada where I saw them in November, I only had the digital app ticket barcode that you couldn't even take a screenshot of (it was scalper protected) so I ended up with nothing.
But it may still be available on my account, I'll check.

We all have our own thoughts and opinion about the live videos from past tours. For example in my personal case having seen Genesis 12 times since 1973, I recall that I was very disappointed when I saw the 1980 video (Duke tour) of a concert I enjoyed immensely and confirmed that a video will NEVER replace actually being there live.
So if there will be no DVD or Blu-ray for the Last Domino tour, I'm fine and can live with it. I feel bad for the fans in Australia, Japan and Latin America that never had the chance to catch them for the last time. But yes, the YT videos are a good testimony and whatever poor quality video you got in your phone.
It's also a shame that The Music.com did not release any of the concerts of this tour like they did in 2007 when I have the soundboard CDs from my concert in Denver and the last one (on that tour) at the Hollywood Bowl, california. Seems like a lifetime ago.

Listening to this Duchess from Berlin video, I noticed that the vocalization improves greatly when the extra singers start their chorus. Even if many fans disagree but Phil's voice seems weak and tired. But kudos to him for the valiant effort at his age.

Don't cry for me Argentina - Andrew Lloyd Webber

Heavy Horses - Jethro Tull

The Last Human Gateway (disc 2 of this) Beautiful set and music

The latest issue of Prog magazine has a big feature on Close To The Edge on the occasion of its 50th.
Look, I just thought you might like to know, OK?
Here in Atlantic Canada we get Prog issues about one month after the UK. I bought the Jethro Tull #126 issue last week but hope I can get my hands on CTTE #127 and the "complete story of Yes special". Barnes & Noble in the states get them sooner.

Great Gates of KIEV by ELP (interesting and relevant now because the Ukranians want it to be known as KYIV which is derived from the Ukrainian language, Kiev is Russian)

Wot Gorilla? Genesis

the CHAMBER OF 32 DOORS - GENESIS

Phil Collins, "The Pentateuch of the Cosmogony" -- not an album by the band Greenslade, but a collaborative album involving Dave Greenslade.
Correct.
But, I did not say "the band" Greenslade but just his last name. Great album (I presume you have it) in the hardback 12" x 12" version with artwork by Patrick Woodruff that is fascinating.

ANGKOR WAT (in Cambodia) This is a place where a mystical temple is located - one of the true world architectural wonders, it is beautiful and very spiritual song by YES:
-
Name of Genesis band member who plays in a Greenslade album, who is that musician and what is the album title?
-
Run with the Fox - Chris Squire & Alan White (kind of YES
)
