    Ha,
    They (stupidly) added a 2nd Boston show, presale going on now and tons of tix available. 
    Dynamic pricing has them way lower than the night before. Balcony seats which they sold for $250.50 for 12/15 selling for $80.50 for 12/16.
    Market totally flooded.

    If tickets are stupid cheap that week, I could see myself grabbing one & going in for part of the show. This would be the only scenario in which I could see myself going though... God knows they won't be as good as they were 30 years ago. 

    All things considered, It could be the last time Genesis ever performs.

    Yeah I'm basically going to wait till December and make a decision then.
    Think there will be plenty of available tix unless they cancel the 2nd show.

    Those balcony seats are back up to $155. Too much for me for Genesis.

    I am an 80s child and the Abacab, Three sides live, and Genesis (home by the sea) records and tours will always define Genesis for me. Same with Hello, I must be going and No Jacket Required Phil solo tours with the horns. Another part of the soundtrack of my youth. I never really got into the prog rock and older Genesis, but I did love Seconds Out. I will pass on this tour, as I have not felt the need to see Phil or Genesis since about 1991. No Chester, no thank you!

    Not flooded in big Apple, both MSG shows sold out and one at new Islander arena nearly sold out. Downside is Tickets are very expensive but they put on a massive light show, so something to look at if far from stage. Maybe road trip to Boston, thanks for the info.

    If this weren’t their last tour I’d probably pass on an indoor show in the covid era. But great old bands are disappearing one by one. Yes it’s a lot of cash but this is likely the last chance to experience their music live. There will be a day in the not so distant future bands around in 1979 and earlier will be hanging with the dinosaurs. Watcher of the Skies was on just before and they are playing some Gabriel era songs this tour, which is a catch 22, great songs but not Gabriel singing them.

    I just saw that Phil is very frail but is in good voice.
