GENESIS: AND THEN THERE MIGHT BE FIVE AGAIN?

Genesis has just released thier third box set in recent years: this one contains the studio albums from the Peter Gabriel years. The band has always been talking about wanting to do a tour with Peter. Phil Collins has always said he'd be into just playing drums and having Peter sing; Steve Hackett has said he'd return to the band if Peter did. There was talk of such a reunion in 2004, and Peter decided against it because he was working on his next album (which hasn't come out, four years later). That led to a reunion of the trio version of the group. But Tony Banks, promoting the box set, has been talking about the band maybe doing some performances of their final album together, The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. Which would be cool - but my favorite album is Selling England By The Pound!
