I thought he was in his 20s, but that wasn't my point. The point was that his voice was exactly like the previous singer.

The Genesis story has it's fans pretty divided from the Gabriel and Collins years. When Collins first took the lead after Gabriel's departure he tried hard to keep it Gabriel-inspired for the next few albums, specially on live performances of the earlier material. When I saw them on tour following the Duke album, Collins was singing as himself and not Gabriel.

The Buggles killed the Yes sound with Trevor Horn's vocals. Ray Wilson killed the Genesis sound with his vocals. Sometimes change is not good. wink

There is this band Marillion that didn't become huge but had a loyal following, and in the 80s had this Gabrielesque singer named Fish. He left and was replaced by the brilliant vocalist Steve Hogarth. The band evolved with a different sound, and it worked and they're still producing intresting new material.

My favorite album from last year was Hogarth's collaboration with Richard Barbieri (Porcupine Tree), check it out : https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/not-weapon-but-hand-deluxe/id501554900

hmmmm...very Atmospheric...I like it. smile
I also appreciate your taste in Music.

The last time you gave me a heads up
concerning a NYCity Porcupinetree show
my BF pushed me blocks (the long way)
from Port Authority in my wheelchair
to Rockafella Center to see them...

The small venue show was OUTSTANDING!

I enjoyed it so much I passed the tour
info to Treebeard in New South Wales,
where he turned it into the basis for
a week-long Aussie Forum Meet-up in
Melbourne. smile PROG-ROCKERS UNITE!

Live shows push your love for a band into orbit.

Since we started talking earlier about Yes, I pulled out some of my tour programs from the mindblowing Yes early shows. Roger Dean designed the sets - huge beetle-like shells that lit up and opened to reveal more glowing layers and lasers!




1974 Tales from Topographic Oceans Tour




1975 Relayer Tour (with Patrick Moraz)

...much the same as fans who are still divided
between Roger Waters & "Pink Floyd" ... yeah...
Dave "won" the rights to the name, and the screens
etc... but he couldn't write fer shyte. :P

(at least in my slanted opinion) The Roger fans
have little patience for Dave's "Moon, Spoon,
June, Swoon" smile lyrics after clinging to the edge
of your seat listening to Roger "bring the world
to the edge of disaster" eek cry time and again.
(maybe that's just a wee bit intense for some (?))


Same Same for Gabriel vs Collins...

Collins did a concert.... Gabriel put on a show!
Peter Gabriel is more than a writer/singer,
he's a performance artist. You don't "see him"
you "EXPERIENCE Him" it's almost a religious
experience, very palpable and emotional, like any
REALLY Good "Old Time Revival Meeting Tent Show"

**I saw both those shows

Our experiences with 'progressive' seem to have a whole lot of common ground.

The one tour that got little if any attention in the progressive world was the 1993 David Sylvian & Robert Fripp tour in support of the incredible album "The First Day".

Many of us have seen Crimson live, I saw tours that included Bruford, Levin, and Belew in the double-trio format. "Discipline", "Beat" … "Thrak". But this tour with David Sylvian was unbelievable in power and atmosphere. Fripp played straight out power fuzz and tape-looped ecstasy jam with guitarist Michael Brooks and Trey Gunn on stick … here's "Darshan", the funkiest guitar jam ever in the progressive scene.It' s long, but it is great), and I am so glad to find the tour was filmed:

Madison Square Garden)

1978 Berkeley Community Theater ( a pretty small venue), Peter Gabriel began the show with the house light up singing some inane lullyby about his teddybear … the lights go down and band begins with "Broadway" … he's singing but nowhere to be seen. Seems he started about in the middle of the place in the crowd, climbing over seats to the stage. Yep, I had his foot planted right on my shoulder. laugh Years later during the So tour it was kinda scary for him to crowd surf (I bet he was one of the first to do that) … I saw him do it two nights in a row at the Forum … the energy was unreal.
