Will There Be Clues For A Genesis Reunion As Phil Collins Goes On Tour?

Rumors are starting to be shared that Phil Collins will have a few songs from the Genesis archive in his set. Could this be true? If it is, could this be motivation for a future Genesis reunion down the road? Here is why I think this would be significant if Phil plays some songs from Genesis. Whether he plays or not, there are other motivating factors for a reunion.

In an interview back in October, Collin's son was quoted that the Genesis material is from a drummers perspective, significant and challenging to play. I almost got the sense he felt playing for Genesis would be difficult in comparison to playing his father's music. As a drummer, he may pressure his father to go out with Genesis in the future.

Next, Mike Rutherford is playing along side Phil with the Mechanics. Most likely and interactions between Phil and his son will be nostalgic. Again, this reminds Phil that the idea of a reunion would fun for all parties involved. Phil did after all mention that his writing the book brought back fond memories of Genesis.

Whether Phil plays songs from Genesis or not, his returning to the stage is a positive step towards a reunion. Most likely the trio will unite as Steve and Pete will forgo the three member era of music. In my opinion, this is why we will see a trio reunion as it would be more appealing to play all eras with Nicholas on the drums. It is all speculation for now.....soon we will know.
