From Hamilton, Ontario, a nice little interview with an interviewer who seems to be something of a fan. I saw the show last night in Oakville (front row!) and it was fantastic.

That is awesome promotion. Thanks for sharing.

What a complete Gentleman. I'm impressed with the interviewer (saw him before but didn't know he was such a drooling fan). Thanks for always sharing cool stuff.

why that interviewer knows his stuff---Steve is the best no doubt.

One of the better interviews I've ever seen. The guy was very knowledgeable and it was refreshing to see someone really dig deep into Steve's history and music.

I remember years ago Hackett did an acoustic tour of the US and was on a morning show (Today?). He was playing acoustic guitar and in the middle of doing something (probably Horizon) one of the anchors of the show said "such peaceful music, I feel like putting my head down and taking a nap".

I didn`t know Steve lived in Canada during his youth for one year.

I remember that, I think it was CBS This Morning. He was promoting Guitar Noir.

I saw that, too. It was just painfully awkward when the anchorwoman interrupted him. Poor Steve was about 10 seconds away from the last note, but I guess the anchorwoman had no idea when it would end and needed to cut to a commercial.

I haven't seen that clip of Genesis doing the musical box. What year/tour was that? Is there more footage out there?
