Show memories
My first (and sadly only) Genesis show. A truly amazing experience. I remember feeling strange because some of the lighting effects seemed to make the band go in and out of focus. I was talking about this with my friend on the way out, thinking it was just my bad eyes, and a lady turned to us and said "Oh my God! I thought I was the only one seeing that!" I was also very impressed with the regional joke about the center of the universe. Most bands weren't even aware what state they were in when they came to Iowa, so for one to actually go to the trouble to tailor a joke for Iowa was amazing to me. A really, really great show, especially since it was only the second show of the tour. [pantherhawk27263]

Interesting incident

Phil does the "Masturbation will not make me go deaf !"-quote as in intro to Home by the Sea. Not really an incident but who expected this from Mr. Nice guy.[Martijn Van Beek]
