2. Bows before your coolness.

I still kick myself because there has been more than one time I could have seen Peter Gabriel in concert and other things have come up.

3. Lucky shit.

I saw the "US" tour in DC. Just awesome. Just awesome. There will never be an act to do to meld music with astounding visuals than Peter Gabriel.

10. Ohhh excellent comparisons

He always seemed to be, um at best, excentric. Completely messed up at worst. But heck even then he made some amazing music. If he makes an album I buy it. I didn't like Us as much as the others, but it's all genius.

12. I think there were 2 songs I didn't like as much on "US"

I didn't like "UP" as much as "US", but I pretty much love all his stuff.

13. It's not like it was bad

It just was not as good as I expected it would be. Up was ok too, but I think I conencted with that a little more at that time. I suspect that where I am in life now will make me like Us a whole lot better. But yeah, genius. And pretty messed up at times too lol.

14. On US, I really liked Secret World, Steam, and Digging in the Dirt.

Who else would make such an aggressive song about psychotherapy?

I hope he keeps working on his own stuff. I like his real world label. There are many cd's from that label in my collection.
