Has anyone been to one of the recent Genesis concerts ?

Was there a supporting band ?

What time did Genesis appear on stage ?

What time did the concert end ?

Thanks

NB i wasnt there but played newcastle at the weekend, according to the local paper

genisis onstage at 20:00, no support act, there is a curfew at the arena so would have been done by 22:30 latest

phil collins seated in a chair throughout

imagine it was horrendously expensive but both nights sold out

We were at Liverpool last night, excellent show, really enjoyed it.

Doors opened at 18:30, show started at 20:15 and finished around 22:40. There was no support act as the show was 2.5 hours long with no break apart from a brief gap for the encore.

Given the information on the M&S Arena website, it�s a no bag policy (but small clear bags would be allowed if essential), and you need proof of Covid Vaccination (Covid Pass or LFT confirmation).
There were people here with large handbags and those were searched before you enter the Arena. Not once were we needed to show our Covid passes, we asked numerous security staff about them but they just shrugged their shoulders.

We were at Manchester last Friday and Liverpool last night, neither had a support. On both occasions our bags were briefly checked, we weren�t asked for Covid passes at either venue. Both amazing concerts!

I was at a festival on the weekend, signs up everywhere about covid passports/lft tests but no one checked anything on the way in...

I went to the Newcastle gig on Thursday. Queues to get in were horrendous. Gig started about 8.15. No support. Finished about 10.30. Great night.
