Not something I've really noticed, but the other day I was thinking about Phil leaving the band, only to carry on working on Genesis projects just a few years later (before the 2007 tour) and I thought, in hindsight, Tony and Mike could simply have stopped with Genesis when Phil quit and simply worked together under the Mechanics brand, leaving Genesis on a high and no doubt ready for reunions down the road.

It would perhaps made more sense had it been done this way ultimately and maybe having Wilson as a singer with the Mechanics, given him less criticism and comparison to Phil.

I gave this version an 8.

The live version is so much better.

It seems also here that maybe Phil had a cold or flu as he didn't look so good compared to other shows on this Tour.

Missed it but it's on catchup thankfully

Listening to them sing We Can't Dance was painful tbh

Been doing rounds this morning on Social Media, clearly a likely prank.

Could technically tour with Ray or Peter still

Interesting bit of info from Mike's BBC interview yesterday, was that the Acoustic Medley was his idea and Tony & Phil were not keen on it originally.

He also said he will be doing the same thing on the Mechanics tour with other Genesis songs.

all 5 discs feel so random, it's a shame they didn't release 5 complete shows really, but something is better than nothing.

Unless I missed it, is Chester (photo) in the book at all?

Saw the vinyl set in HMV today, think it was £65 compared to Amazon at £51

Plus they had to tune their instruments in between songs as well.

Not like 2022 when they had people doing it for them during the show and just swapping them over.

I'll buy only if its available to download.

Genesis topped the Forbes list of the highest-paid entertainers of 2022 on the strength of their farewell trek, “The Last Domino? Tour,” while Taylor Swift, the only female entertainer in the top 10, had a massive year even without even hitting the road.

Forbes estimates that Genesis earned $230 million last year, both from the farewell tour and individual income streams like royalties from Phil Collins’ solo banger, “In the Air Tonight.” Sting came in second place with $210 million, powered largely by the sale of his catalog to Universal Music Group.

Genesis also sold their catalog as well but not mentioned, so did they actually make even more?

I really like Say its alright Joe, until it gets to the instrumental part when it seems Tony reverts back to an 8yr old with a new keyboard hitting the sound affect buttons thinking it's cool.

To the OP

The Answer is in the band name.......

At the beginning

Not only that but having conjured them up he then immediately demanded they all be sacked! 🤨😆

Must belong to the Tory Cabinet

I was like only the 3rd viewer when it came out lol

Why does Amazon have the wrong dates against songs.

Mama and Domino 1980 for example

Will the full CD be available to download do you think?

I barely use Cds anymore as all my music on on my phone

It's okay but nothing groundbreaking or worth that length of time between albums imo.

Feels very early 80s, will be interesting to hear the whole album.
