x-post: I didn't buy them all, but between my best friend at the time (mentioned earlier) and me, we hit a lot of them.

I like the more jump/cut feel of transitions on the vinyl Live at Thee Circus compared to Live at Astoria.

I saw them for the first time in 1988 at Revival in Philadelphia, so it was about the same time period. I don't remember much from the show, but I remember the keyboardist playing A Whiter Shade of Pale over which Genesis was saying: They say: say no to drugs; but I say, I want some drugs, etc.

feel like this was maybe around the high-water mark for TOPY and probably the heavy drug use was part of that -- I had a friend who full-on joined up & moved to Colorado, came back with the sort of body piercings not a lot of people had back then. but he was fully over it by '92 and calling Genesis "the old man."

Does anyone else here the resemblance between this and PTV's rave/rock phase? I mean, it's more conventional and more tightly crafted and has a different atmosphere (and. . . and. . . and. . .), but the groove? Especially in the beginning.
