7th July at Twickenham works for me. Who else is gonna be there?

Feek · 07-11-2006, 23:07

July should be OK for me, I'll do whatever I need to in order to be there.

*puts kids on eBay*

Burble · 07-11-2006, 23:13

I'll be keeping my eyes open for when the tickets go on sale

OMFG WHEN IS THIS??? I absolutely love Phil Collins and Genesis. DEFINITELY up for this big styleeeeeee

Edit: 7th would be best as it's a Saturday

Paul has suddenly gone Phil Collins mad due to the latest Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories game.

Each to their own, but I think Genesis with Peter Gabriel was much better than without.

There's a fantastic tribute band that faithfully recreates the live shows Genesis did with Peter Gabriel, called The Musical Box. Seeing them for a third time next march doing Selling England By the Pound

I'm sure it'll be great to see them still (though probably quite pricey), but for me it'd be like going to see Led Zep without Robert Plant or Pink Floyd without Gilmour. It'd be missing something important. Genesis after Gabriel and Hackett left was a totally different Genesis though, I've never really gotten into it.

Twickenham tickets appear to be sold out

Edit - No, there are some available but they come with a price premium. £120 for a £60 ticket anyone? Stuff that.

Feek · 24-11-2006, 11:50

When were they released?

Burble · 24-11-2006, 11:55

Dunno. I only knew they were on sale because I had a panicky phone call from one of the girls at work who while trying to buy tickets had locked her Windows account so the proxy server was prompting her for authentication details.

Seems that Manchester tickets are still available.
