Title: Genesis Reunion with Gabriel and Hacket
Post by NegativeTrend on 4th Oct, 2005 at 11:19am

Quote:
Is a Genesis reunion in the works? Former guitarist Steve Hackett says it is indeed. Hackett, who was in the band in from 1971 to 1977, has said that overtures are being made about getting the progressive rock group back together at some point: "There's something afoot. There's a move afoot to put us together again. At some point there's a reformation mooted. It's rare that I get a call from Genesis management, very rare these days. So maybe something will happen, you know."

Hackett said the reunion would include original singer Peter Gabriel, drummer-vocalist Phil Collins, guitarist-bassist Mike Rutherford, and keyboardist Tony Banks. Nothing specific has been arranged yet, however.

Genesis shut down in 1998 after the commercial failure of Calling All Stations, the album Rutherford and Banks recorded with a new singer after Collins left the band.

Genesis recently released a three-CD retrospective, Genesis Platinum Collection, and a DVD compilation called Genesis Video Show.

Can't wait to see them performing the way it should have been for the past 20 years!  :)

Still seems to be in the realm of "... maybe something will happen ..." at the moment. It would obviously be fantastic if it did happen tho ... :o

That's almost too good to be true ;D

Speaking of Hackett - anyone hear any of  his newly remastered solo discs (w/ bonus tracks)?  Also the Bruford solo stuff has gotten the same treatment.

Oh well...there goes the money... :-/ ;)
