Genesis begin rehearsals for huge 2021 reunion tour
Genesis have begun rehearsals for their massive 2021 UK reunion tour in London – see photos below.
Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Phil Collins will head out on ‘The Last Domino? Tour’ next April, with dates having been pushed back due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The trio, playing together for the first time since 2017, are set to be joined on the tour by Nic Collins on drums, and guitarist/bassist Daryl Stuermer.
Back in July, it was revealed that the trio were pushing back their November and December 2020 shows to next year due to continued concerns regarding the pandemic.

“I think it’s a natural moment,” said Rutherford of their reunion back in March. “Phil’s been out on tour for the last two-and-a-half years and his son Nick has been drumming, so it seemed like the natural moment to have a conversation about it. We’re all still good friends, we’re all above grass and here we are!”
Earlier this year during the coronavirus lockdown, Genesis began uploading a series of classic gigs to YouTube, streaming one new show from across their career every weekend.
This month, Phil Collins issued a cease and desist order to US President Donald Trump, after Trump used Collins’ classic hit ‘In The Air Tonight’ at one of his rallies without permission.
