...the show we were hoping for this month (but instead saw in Albany at the Egg) has been announced for April. We love Montreal in the Spring (and Fall) so grabbed some tix this a.m. although we just saw the show two nights ago.

November 11, 2015 - Steve Hackett, legendary guitarist, composer and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee (2010), will stop by Théâtre Maisonneuve on April 9, 2016. Performing sold out shows in Montreal in 2010, 2013 and 2014, Hackett's current tour entitled Acolyte to Wolflight with Genesis Revisited Tour - The Total Experience, will span his history, from earliest album Voyage of the Acolyte celebrating its 40th anniversary to his new rock album Wolflight, with the addition of Genesis songs. Steve enthuses... "I'm hugely excited about the new album and incorporating it into this year's tour, which will involve both classic and contemporary, with several surprises!"

In celebration of his new album Wolflight released in April 2015, and the 40th anniversary of the release of his first solo album Voyage of the Acolyte, Steve brings to us a unique show of both Hackett solo and Genesis classics. Along with the superb pieces such as Ace of Wands and Spectral Mornings and a selection from Wolflight, Steve will conclude his two and a half hour show with yet more Genesis material that was not part of his previous Genesis Classics shows of 2013 and 2014. Epic songs like The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Cinema Show, Can-Utility, Hairless Heart and The Musical Box will be part of this spectacular tour. It will be for many, the Total Experience, spanning Steve's prolific output from early Genesis days to today.

Musicians playing with Steve will be Roger King, keyboards; Gary O'Toole, drums & percussion; Rob Townsend, saxes and flutes, Roine Stolt, bass & guitars and Nad Sylvan on vocals.
