peter gabriel PLAYS LIVE...


Yes he does.  He does play live.  Guess we will find out more this evening.  Two years ago his New Blood Orchestra was a flop.  It needed a transfusion.   He stripped his songs down to bare bones and played them with a 45-piece orchestra.  The songs were like cars without wheels - they went nowhere.  Like liking to eat the core, rather than the apple.  It was sheer Pete - but that time, being so different, he went over the cliff.  His 2002 Up concert was the best arena show I've ever seen.  I am guessing he will make proper amends as he runs through his smash album So in order, actually - ever the contrarian - in reverse song order.  Really Pete?  Reverse order.  KO.
