Genesis tickets through the years









Genesis concerts. Missing a Peter Gabriel-lead show in 1974 from the "Selling England by the Pound" tour at the New Theatre, Oxford, England, which I guess would have been in the one pound sterling range. The New York Beacon show, Phil Collins's first tour as lead singer on the "Trick of the Tale" tour, was a $6.50 ticket (1976). The Hammersmith Odeon show on the same tour was the equivalent of $4 in exchange rates of the time. The 1977 "Seconds Out" show at Earl's Court could roughly be translated as a $10 ticket. The 1980 tour at Madison Square Garden -- worst seats in the house -- $8.50. 2007 Madison Square Garden best seats, $275. Will post the ticket when I can find it!
