Who Wants a Genesis Reunion?

Just thought I'd see how many Genesis fans there were out there. Who wants to see the guys reunite, Gabriel and all (Hopefully Hackett too)? I'd love to see "Supper's Ready" done live, even though I doubt that Peter OR Phil would wear the Magog suit anymore....(not that Phil ever did.)

While we're on the topic of prog rock bands, WHO'S GETTING TIX FOR YES AND STYX THIS SUMMER!!!!???? :D :D :D

Not I. At one time, I owned all of those albums, went to all of those shows. I'm convinced there are better, younger acts doing good prog music right now (should I need to dive back into that).
 
See, I guess I want to see it so bad because I never got to see my favorite bands when they were in their prime. I was born way too late. That would be my one chance to say "Iv'e seen Genesis" or "I've seen Yes" (which I will this summer!). These guys may be a bit washed up, but they are still them...and way better than anything else around in rock (Except Muse, maybe) now, and this is the only way I'll see them in person.
 
"Never cared for Phil Collins' voice. Still don't."

same here. He used to get up from his drum stool for just one number where he sang. We all gave him polite applause and then got back on with the show.

It was a bit like when Keith Richards does a couple of songs.....
