Genesis bid performing adieu over the weekend at London’s O2 Arena, and there was a very special guest in the audience: Peter Gabriel.
Fan site World Of Genesis shared the photo below along with the caption, “From tonight’s final #Genesis show in London (from left): #PeterGabriel, #PhilCollins, and Richard McPhail (long time friend and tour manager in the ‘70s). If you’ve not read Richard’s book on Genesis, you should.”

Per Ultimate Classic Rock, Collins told the sold-out crowd at the O2, “Tonight is a very special night. It’s the last stop of our tour, and it’s the last show for Genesis. It’s difficult for us to believe that, uh, you still came out to see us! Yes, after tonight we’ve all got to get real jobs.” He then added referencing Gabriel’s attendance at the show, “Maybe he’s the one shouting for ‘Supper’s Ready’ — I don’t know!”
Below is a selection of fan-shot video from that show along with the show’s setlist.
