    I think they just found him in the jungle.

    He was quite good in Joseph, but very short! lol.

    Anyone know if there is a support act for Genesis and who it is?

    How much would you pay for them to do a complete "suppers ready" or "cinema show" like they did in the late 70s. Actually, I'd pay £100 extra for them to do "Who Dunnit".

    Nah, that was then, this is now.

    I've always had a love-hate relationship with them, but can't deny that Abracadabrad had a good sharp edge to it, along with Lamb Dies Down and bits of Wind and Wuthering. I think that Trespass is better than most that followed it.

    Their fans are trainspotters though.

    I stopped trainspotting when I was 6, a good 10 years before I discovered Genesis and Trespass, Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot and Live and then SEbt£ !

    As for "Abracadabrad" ? Never heard of it!

    I know Abracadabra by Steve Miller but he's not in Genesis

    Never heard of "Abracabdabracab"? Well, you might call it by its more traditional name "Abacab". All Genesis album/song names have to be mispronounced to annoy the more conservative fans.

    Yes everyone has heard of Abracabdabracab but what about Abracadabrad that you first posted about ?

    Excellent video to it !
    As a commercial single for a band like Genesis it was apt and aimed at the right "market"

    Many thanks, you've cheered us both up, we've never been to any concert before and so we're a little excited. Woooohooooo.
    Oh boy, you are in for a treat! We went to the I can't dance tour at Knebworth and enjoyed (the concert, not the car parking arrangements!) it so much, we booked to see it again at Earls Court!
    Bought our Twickenham tickets this week :beer:
