I have not heard anything about the 2020 tour since Covid hit. I wonder if the tour is at risk and if so it will ever get off the ground (e.g. Will they feel like doing it a year from now). Anyone heard anything??

They're going to reunite with Peter Gabriel and Steve Howe to perform Brain Salad Surgery in its entirety on tour using Gerald Scarfe's original set designs.

Is the tour at risk?
Of course. All tours for 2020 are at risk. And quite likely 2021 - at least for the US
Mike Rutherford is gonna do a solo bass pedal tour to empty stadiums, instead.

Obviously the short term is at risk - I would expect the tour to be delayed... what i was asking is has anyone heard if it will just be cancelled altogether... Its one thing for an artist like the Weeknd or Imagine Dragons to get back to doing what they do... Restart their tours, continue their careers, building their brands, etc. - but one-off reunions like genesis ever getting of the ground in this environment - it seems unlikely at this point.
I dunno. There's more money involved than for Imagine Dragons (which is always an inducement for anything) and it isn't like those three guys are booked up with anything like having to work....

Seems unlikely this year for any concerts.
Even if concerts resume by October, a big tour like this one would have problems. They probably aren't in close enough proximity that they've been able to rehearse all this time, plus they've lost a lot of time in getting their team together for sound, set construction, etc. The first concerts that happen after covid will probably be local bands playing close to home.
What is surprising is that Genesis have said nothing about cancelling, rescheduling, etc.
I would suppose all performers are just in limbo right now. I know I get emails from theaters with new concert scheduled but I don’t know how much of a response they are getting back of ticket sales. It’s like playing kitty by the door right now and will most likely be that way for quite some time to come.

The tour that "might have been" may very well sound better than if one should actually occur.
Sleeping at home is killing the hotel business!
Maybe they can invite 100 people to GenesisFest for $100,000 a ticket, and then distribute the livestream for $999.95
Rescheduled dates, now April 2021. http://assets.umusic.co.uk/umc/Genes...July/admat.jpg
Thanks for the link. US dates seem lees likely even than before.
They've already artistically distanced from each other so would it be difficult to socially distance as well during a tour.
