How’s that for a list of useless info?

I did enjoy checking out Wolfgang’s Vault. They’ve got some interesting concerts from the 60’s-80’s of Floyd, Clash, Zappa, etc. A lot of them aren’t available to purchase, but can be listened to in their entirety just by signing up….

Hey Pete, what say you put down your incessant self-promoter and give the fans what they want and do a few shows with Genesis?

You don’t have to do world tour; do a few shows and make a nice DVD package.

Giving the fans what the want. What a concept. How many artists actually do that?

Not Mr. Gabriel, obviously.
