Meet My Maker.....and he's Mozo !
37 years in the making....
Meeting the artist who both made and minted us all. What a THRILL !!
I thanked him for "enriching our lives"..and meant every syllable of that statement.
I should have added that, with his extraordinary artistic & compositional talents - he has provided all of us a vibrant thread which has been woven through the tapestries of our respective, individual lives...... (but, my brain synapses were popping & frazzling left-and-right - while looking into HIS eyes - the "doorway to a thousand churches").
My deepest and most sincere gratitude to Richard Chapell..and, my esteemed & talented Analysis series collaborator - Tom Lord-Alge - for making this possible for me and for all who follow this website.

Two years ago, Peter Gabriel told Rolling Stone that Phish had contacted him about joining them onstage for a complete performance of a classic Genesis album. "They do these projects where they take an old record and do it," said Gabriel. "I had a conversation about The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway with them at one point. They were thinking about it. That didn't go anywhere."
Trey Anastasio, who inducted Genesis into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010, now tells Rolling Stone that he was the one who contacted the former Genesis frontman. "I'm such a big fan of Peter Gabriel, I can't even begin to tell you," he says. "I've been one my whole lifetime, so just hearing his voice on the phone was kind of exciting. If he wanted to [perform The Lamb] with us, I would do it. . . That album had a huge effect on me, and [Phish drummer] Jon Fishman as well. I spent most of my high school years in a dark closet with headphones on listening to The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway."
How Does 'Peter Gabriel' Stack Up on Our List of the Best Albums of the Eighties?
Phish are playing a classic album at Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall this Halloween, and Anastasio says they are open to playing The Lamb at that show. "That would be great," he says. "I can play that album in my sleep, but we'll only do it if [Gabriel] does it with us. Peter Gabriel, if you want to do The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway with us this Halloween, we're your band. You heard it here first."
Peter Gabriel hasn't performed a single Genesis song onstage in 30 years. He did meet with the band in 2005 to discuss the possibility of a reunion tour where they'd play The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, but he bailed when it seemed like too big a commitment. The Phil Collins-led lineup of the band toured instead, and since then, Collins has suffered nerve damage that makes it virtually impossible for him to play drums. Any sort of complete reunion seems extremely unlikely.
Genesis and Phish fans shouldn't get their hopes up for a performance of The Lamb this Halloween. Gabriel is spending the month of October on tour in Europe playing his 1986 LP So straight through. The tour does end on October 25th, but Gabriel is a notorious perfectionist and he'd almost certainly demand more than few days' rehearsal. There's always next year, though. . .
