Ha! I wish. I think if I brushed up I could hang. Back in the day I used to rock Afterglow, Dance on a Volcano, Squonk, Cinema Show (pt I AND II!!!), Supper's Ready, you name it. I would sit in my room and play the 360/12 with the Crumar bass pedals. Good clean fun. Except for the bass pedals, which would have distortion!

Looks to be the Foxtrot and SEBTP tour - should be a really great experience!

"Looks to be the Foxtrot and SEBTP tour"

I saw those tours in '72 and '73, respectively.

Oh yeah, it wasn't some band called The Musical Box, either!

Heads up Ladies & Gentlemen ...
For those of you who never had the privilege of witnessing Genesis on those early tours (Foxtrot, Selling England & The Lamb), then The Musical Box is your salvation. I have seen TMB perform all three shows (I've seen The Lamb twice), & can honestly say that these guys are quite amazing. They are not a tribute band, they lovingly recreate the shows that Genesis performed back in the early '70s. They sound amazing, & even look like the original line up.

Yes, I saw the Lamb show in Cleveland last year, and couldn't find a single detail they missed.

That's funny, I too saw the LLDOB show in Cleveland, back in '74.

"and couldn't find a single detail they missed."

Did they get the Slipperman, um, "issue" correct?

I know what you mean, Jeff, but not specifically. They had the inflation tube hooked up, but I can't remember if the, um, "balloons" inflated or not.
