You think he'll make another European tour in 2024 to promote I/O ?
Hopefully he will tour Australia.

Absolute classic, but mainly for the lyrics rather than the sound. "This time you've gone too far'.... etc. I will have it in my head for the whole day now. Strangely I didn't like the video that much.
Outstanding. As usual I don't have the words to describe it, except that it's one of Phil's finest hours.
Well done Harry! You nailed that final round!
I didn't know that actually. I really need to listen to more of both these bands. Although I had the funny experience today of being at a kiddy carnival where my two year old was jumping around in a bouncy castle to some upbeat dance track, and then inexplicably a really dirgey Radiohead or Thom Yorke solo song came on with ominous atonal chords and doomy lyrics 😆.
Tangentially related to Roger Waters, I keep seeing reviews of a tour Nick Mason is doing called Saucerful of Secrets, focusing only on pre-DSOTM pink Floyd. They get really stellar reviews and I am bummed I didn't see them in Boston. They play Atom Heart, Echoes and lots of other cool early Floyd songs. Hope they come by again.
I'm seeing them in August.
Waters claims the 'costume' he has been wearing is in the character of Pink from The Wall.
As people might expect it's the Mark Knopfler connection (he wrote Private Dancer) that is important to me, but I went to see her in 1985 and she was stunning. She was much loved here for doing a commercial for Rugby League which was credited with revitalising the sport.
Unfortunately my beloved Sydney Roosters are only in for a millisecond of someone's shorts. She did another one featuring The Best, but the YouTube quality is dreadful.
My favourite song by her was always Nutbush City Limits. But her performance of Acid Queen in Tommy - Wow!
Well, what I saw was obviously after that was taken down!

The age old conundrum continues to exist. People complain about 'new songs' and want to hear 'fan favourites' or 'rarities'. The question is how on earth do new songs ever become fan favourites if they are dropped after onlyl a couple of performance? Either you show some faith in the new material, or you retreat into safety.
But I don't know where you are getting that information. I just looked at setlist.fm and there are no major changes.
Edit; this is what setlist.fm has for this show:
Sledgehammer Lip -synced???????
Peter Gabriel Kraków 18.05.2023, Sledgehammer, Don't Give Up, Red Rain, In Your Eyes - YouTube
I watched a bit of Sledgehammer and he hesitated before the word 'aeroplane'. So no.
I gotta say I'm surprised that more people don't like Silver Rainbow on here. I'm personally not a huge fan of it myself, but in other past forums (that have long since closed down sadly), I would hear fans gush over how great of a song it is-and I was the one thinking it was overrated LOL!
At the end of the day, it's all personal preference I suppose. For example-It's Gonna Get Better (though seemingly forgotten by many fans) is actually one of my favorite Genesis songs!
I really like both Silver Rainbow & It's Gonna Get Better.

Have fun all of you who are going. I hope he considers coming to Australia - he hasn't been here since the Secret World tour (which I did attend).
Outstanding. They sound years ahead of their time here. I wish I could be more eloquent.
WCD is an odd one for me, it has a special connotation because it was the album really got me into Genesis, and one of the earliest albums I listened to obsessively, age 10-11. I think it has good depth and range, but there's also a maturity about it that makes it a little boring or something. The sound is unadventurous, which may be a production issue. I return to it infrequently but when I do, I enjoy the heights very much - NSOM, Jesus, driving the last spike and dreaming while you sleep are all great but countered by very mechanicsy MOR fare like Never a Time, and I was never a big fan of Fading Lights.
I am glad to see it top of someone's pile though!
It's the top of my pile for pretty much the reasons you give.
I've been listening to my Van Morrison albums in the car. He just is not a 'car' artist. Some of the later albums with tracks that go on forever with his self-indulgent vocalising have not aged well. He is best when he keeps it simple (which tells you that yes, I prefer Moondance to Astral Weeks). His recent anti vaxxer political stance has not helped my opinion of him.

I think this song would look great in ...Ray Wilson's setlist!
Yes, for the first minute and a half. Then it's pure PG. Great stuff.
Very good, like everything else on that album.
