Genesis Plays First Show Since 2007

Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks played their first show as Genesis this week in Birmingham England.

The band also featured Phil’s son Nic on drums. Phil can no longer play drums due to a back injury. Nic was also the drummer on the 2019/2020 Phil Collins world tour. Phil’s long-time solo band bass player Daryl Stuermer rounded out the band.

This is going to be the last time Phil Collins tours with Genesis. He said this week that he is unlikely to tour again after this one.

While the setlist covers the history of Genesis, there were some major track omissions. Missing were:
In Too Deep
Abacab
Hold On My Heart
Jesus He Knows Me
Illegal Alien
Misunderstanding
No Reply At All
