lani,

I think that you're looking at 2007. I couldn't find anything about '08. They did play in Detroit 9/30 last year.

I really liked "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins. It really showed his mastery of both percussion and arrangement- and some stellar songwriting.

That and Red Red Rain by Peter Gabriel are my absolute favorites of that genre (I was a self conscious teenager and into punk big time when that came out so basically was a closet fan. I grew out of that soon after, but never actually saw either of them in concert, or Genesis et al. )

I met him once in 1988 (or 89). He'd played in Ft. Bragg, NC and was of all places in a watering hole in Fayettiville. Nice guy! I'll see if I can dig up the pics.....


Yea, I'm w/Dean, couldn't find anything for 2008. I'd suggest checking with Ticket Master.

My kids would be aghast at the thought of "that ole fogie". LOL Got to agree with Toby on the song........yet just about everything he's sang I'm a fan of.
Oh by the way Lani.......how'd you like to be his ex. right about now? LOL Stardom......
it seems comes at a BIG cost, huh? (Might see if you could get ex's backstage pass. LOL)
