Genesis was supposed to be getting ready to go on tour next month, but then COVID-19 happened. Now their 2020 tour has been moved to April 2021. Yesterday, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, and Phil Collins started rehearsing together.
This is the first time they are hitting the road since the Turn It On Again: The Tour in 2007. It will not just be the three of them, Nic Collins (Phil’s son) on drums, and long time lead guitar and bass player Daryl Stuermer will make them a quintet.
Too bad, Peter Gabriel won’t get over himself and join his old mates on the road. Although, I doubt Collins would want to share the mic.
Do you want to see them live and in concert? I mean, at this point, I would see anyone live, including a Smashmouth, Color Me Badd, Spin Doctors, Nickleback ticket. That is how desperate I am for some live music. However, during normal times like 2019, I would totally be down for them. Sadly, we live in a land of confusion because of an invisible touch, and that means we can’t dance. Now that I think about it, Sussudio sounds like it could be the name of a virus that spreads in the air tonight. I know the last two are songs from Collins’ solo career, whatevs.
