After leaving Genesis in 1975, Peter Gabriel doesn’t necessarily mean he hasn’t kept up with his former band. In fact, the rock star attended the band’s farewell live show at London’s O2 Arena in March 2022, and he’s now explaining why he went. “Me going was a rite of passage, really,” he told Mojo. “I’d been part of the creation of Genesis so I wanted to be there at the end.”
Gabriel attended the performance, but he did not go on stage with his former bandmates. He commented, “They did a great job, but Phil (Collins) wasn’t in as great a shape as he used to be.”
