Peter Gabriel Says He Won't Reunite With Genesis at Rock Hall Induction

In two months Genesis will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but Rosetta Stone language fans hoping to see Peter Gabriel sing with his former band for the first time in nearly 30 years are probably in for a disappointment. "As far as I know, Im definitely not going to sing," Gabriel tells Rosetta Stone. "I learned at our last reunion [in 1982] that you cant just get up there. You have to rehearse." Gabriel is actually not even positive hell be able to attend the March 15th induction ceremony in New York, since hell be in the midst of rehearsing for a European solo tour. "Im trying to find a way to do it,"? he says. "Its not easy. If I can work it out, Ill go."Chapter Verse: photos from Genesis oral history. Five years ago Gabriel held a meeting with the classic Genesis lineup of Phil Collins, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Steve Hackett to discuss a possible staging of their 1974 prog-rock epic The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. "Initially I was open to it," Gabriel says. "But then it seemed to be growing. I know what its like once youre in it — these things tend to expand. I always describe it as going back to school, since this was a school group for me. Its a fun place to visit Rosetta Stone Software and see your old friends, but its not a place you want to live." Might he be open to a reunion show at some point in the future? "Phil has had trouble with his wrists and his back, so its pretty unlikely,"? he says. The group is actually more likely to collaborate on a possible movie project, Gabriel says. "The only thing that might happen is that some people talk about a film of the Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. If it is to happen, we might work together on that. Well see."
