I've downloaded many recordings from Phil's Not Dead Yet tour, but the only truly great sounding boots I've found is Boston 2018. Does anyone know of any great recordings from the 2017 and 2019 years? 2017 would be especially welcome as that was when "Wake Up Call," "One More Night," "Can't Turn Back the Years," and "I Don't Care Anymore" were all in the set list.

A few more predictions I have:
- the show will begin with a video montage set to "The Cinema Show."
- "Behind the Lines" will be performed as part of a medley.
- "Domino" will either open the show or close the main set.
-
Man, am I the only one here who absolutely loves "Hold on My Heart"?
-
I doubt "Apocalypse" is gonna make the final set...I think the most likely "SR" appearance will be "Lover's Leap" in the acoustic section.

I was at the 9/25/07 MSG show this tour, and it's still one of the best live experiences of my life.
My dad surprised me with front row seats after telling me all week we had the worst seats possible, so that right there was a bonus. The band was on that night. I wasn't really familiar with the PG era at that time so it was the first time I got to experience "Ripples...," "In the Cage," "Firth of Fifth," etc. I also had never seen Phil do the tambourine dance before during "I Know What I Like," and remember thinking how stupefyingly energetic he was; you couldn't tell that this tour was the start of his back and neck problems at the time.
My chubby 16 year old face was shown smiling and singing along on the jumbotron during "Throwing It All Away," a highlight of any concert I've ever been too.
I get people's disappointment with the tour in retrospect, but for me it still stands out as a really solid reunion for the band. I thought they played as well as they could and the set had a nice flow to it that gave decent representation of their history.

I love the standalone "In The Cage" from this tour. The one from the Daryl's Birthday in Japan boot is my favorite version ever - the mix, the ambience and the tempo create an absolutely ferocious atmosphere that captures the dread at the heart of the song. I listen to it when I want to amp my speed while out running.

If it's just the 2007 remasters repackaged, no need for me to have this. I'll stick with The Platinum Collection.
-
Am I the only one who thinks "Abacab" is a bizarre choice for a show closer?
-
Someone on reddit thinks the track list is the set list, although he posted what appears to be the incorrect track list. It's not an exciting release for me, obviously a tour promo, but I do think there are some hints. "Fading Lights" being on there to me is confirmation it would likely be played.
-
What songs would qualify as dated? Like sonically? Subject matter wise?

I've posted two predictions prior, but hell this is fun for me so this is my absolute final prediction going forward:
-
Man, "Supper's Ready" on We Can't Dance would've been epic. Shame it didn't make it.
-
Imagine writing and recording "Sussudio" and complaining about other people writing silly lyrics.
-
I can think of many too many songs I'd rather hear over "Many Too Many."
-
Drop the badly out of place Spike and you've got a nice set there, in fact with that amendment it's just about the best, not unfeasible least silly suggestion in this thread, for me anyway.
When I was typing that set I felt like I was missing one that seemed like a no-brainer; "No Son of Mine" can go in that spot.
I'm actually not big on BOTRT's being in there (unless they pull a Stones with Mick Taylor and bring Steve out just for it) either, a full "Cinema Show," "Supper," "Musical Box," or "In The Cage" would be there.
"In the Cage" will always make my fantasy set, but I have a gut feeling we won't see it this time around. Listening to the 2007 versions, I don't think I'll miss it.
-
Don't see them not doing "I Can't Dance" or "Turn It On Again." Also, what a downer ending if that's really the encore. I have a feeling either "That's All" or "Misunderstanding" will return. They're the two biggest hits that fell out of rotation after the band hit it mega with IT.
It won't be 23 songs, but I'm still hoping for this:
1. Dance On A Volcano / The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
2. Behind The Lines
3. Duchess / The Musical Box (outro)
4. Land Of Confusion
5. No Son Of Mine
6. Squonk
7. Abacab
8 Jesus He Knows Me
9. Blood on the Rooftops, In The Cage, or a full Cinema Show or The Musical Box
-- acoustic set --
10. I Can't Dance
11. In Too Deep
12. Follow You, Follow Me
13. Mama
14. Firth of Fifth / I Know What I Like / Supper's Ready (Apocalypse, ASAEIE)
15. Hold on My Heart
16. Throwing It All Away
17. Domino
18. That's All
19. Fading Lights
Encore 1:
20. Misunderstanding
21. Tonight, Tonight, Tonight / Invisible Touch
Encore 2:
22. Carpet Crawlers
23. Turn It On Again

A triumph of his solo career and a classic. I've related to it a lot lately.

First one who says 'Whodunnit' has to donate 5€ for the forum
There's something about the narrative quality / visual imagery of the song that reminds me of the writing from Lamb.
Also, maybe not Genesis, but the "In the Glow of the Night" section of "Domino" wouldn't sound out of place on So to my ears.

I think "Home By The Sea" could've existed in the Gabriel era.
