I repeat it: Ican’t believe you don’t highlight the volume, the accuracy and band’s performance in songs as In the Cage/Cinema Show/Duke’s travel , Home by the sea , Domino , Los Endos. Besides, what would you do if someone near to you leave his sit in the middle of in the cage and then come two songs later with a lighted-glass Margarita? I saw that all the show. Passion is in their music. Let's destroy rock and roll stereotipes best regards dispassionate live performance?

Passion is in their music.

Let’s destroy rock and roll stereotipes

It's about their dispassionate live performance. Technical ability is important, but so is keeping the audience interested, which they had trouble doing. I wasn't the only one who felt this way - which is part of the reason why I link to other reviews of the performance.

Well, what else would you expect coming from americans?.. I'm aware you poor and ignorant people, have never been able to assimilate anything more complex than Bruce Springsteen.. You are despising a movement full of art, expression and imagination, your little minds get perturbed with such poetry.. Do us a favour, and never repeat what you've just said, you should be ashamed.. Hello ‘Hit’ people! Well, what else would you expect coming from americans?..

In that stage was the most brilliant keyboardist and his brain (i think you don't know his name), showing the world you can do good music.

Can you imagine Collins ever coming up with something as complex and imaginative as "Supper's Ready"? 9 out of 10 critics can say what they like, but I’ve always felt that the Collins-led Genesis was a pale shadow of the Gabriel version.

I love Phil as drummer (back in the day, of course), but without Gabriel, this version of Genesis might as well be called the "Phil Collins Sings His Genesis Hits Tour."
