Home Rocky Road

From Classic Rock to Progessive to hip hop to today's hot new tunes!

It's not exactly the same, but it's REALLY close...

I know this has been posted before, but if you like old Genesis (Foxtrot through Lamb...) then you should go see The Musical Box (www.themusicalbox.net) who are now touring and doing Foxtrot and Selling England by the Pound.

I have seen the SEBTP show, both the original tour (in, what?, 1973? '74?) and the Musical Box version, and I can attest that it is a real trip. They re-create the whole show including staging/setup, costumes, and the Gabriel introductions to each song. And they are truly talented musicians, so you get a note-for-note recreation of the album versions of the songs. Gabriel et al have themselves gone and seen them and, in some cases, actually sat in with them (Steve Hackett and Phil Collins).

All I can say is that they are well worth seeing: a time-trip for those who saw the original shows and a real opportunity for those who wonder what it would have been like to experience Genesis in, what I feel, is their prime...
