About This Event

 Doors 7.30pm | Tickets £25 + booking fee | Extended Theatre The Watch Plays Genesis premieres ‘Tales from 1970-1976’. “Take a little trip back from Trespass … to Wind and Wuthering.” The Watch are back, premiering an intense trip into the world of early Genesis, presenting a new show featuring the music of TRESPASS, NURSERY CRYME, FOXTROT, SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND, THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY, A TRICK OF THE TAIL and WIND AND WUTHERING. The dramatic Gabrielesque vocals of The Watch singer, closest ever to Peter Gabriel, and the all-round instrumental excellence of the band will give you the opportunity to experience some of the group’s most celebrated compositions in a manner reminiscent of their pioneering era. The ultimate journey into the mythic world of Genesis! Steve Hackett (Genesis lead guitarist) says: “The Watch is a band of very talented people and I recommend them.” Paul Whitehead (Genesis graphic artist): “The band who remind me most of the Genesis magic.” UK Prog Newsletter: “What’s unique here are the vocals, so very similar to those of a young Peter Gabriel.”
