Hi everybody,
we would like to thank all the people who showed up at these last gigs...
it's been great once again and a pleasure to spend a night together with the music we all love.


We proudly will perform at the Genesis event France this coming week end, we'll meet our friends John and Nick and it'll be a great pleasure to meet Steve as well... John will join us on stage on some songs!

We are also proud to be in Bavaria for the first time, after the beauty of Provence last week, another wonderful area like Bavaria on our gig list... !!

Then we'll get to the north, Finland and Estonia... really looking forward to it !!

After a gig in Stuttgard, where we were forced to cancel a previous show, we'll get to the UK but before we'll play in Arlon, Belgium, where we hope to give the chance to all who were forced to stay out of the venue in Mons, due to a quick sold out after tickets were put on sale, to attend the show... we'll wait for you there !!

So, hope to meet you all soon !!!
thanks,
The Watch

NEWS and FEEDBACK about the Blue show Tour 2010

23:58 Edit This
Hi everybody !
We'd like to say thank you to all who showed up at our gigs! We're having such a great time and night after night the feedback you are giving us is superb...

the 3 italian gigs were very good, grazie a tutti per averci accolto in quel modo! As you know we had John Hackett and Nick Magnus playing with us, their show is great and we spent a wonderful time together...


the UK gigs have been great too ! Our first time in Scotland has been impressive for us, how many sympathetic people we've met there.... and the Ferry is a nice and particular venue.. we're looking forward to be back there asap !

CRS gig was really special ! We've had the huge pleasure to meet John's brother Steve Hackett. It's been such an unexpected surprise for us, and he performed a couple of numbers with John and Nick and then Giorgio was invited on stage too, to perform Jacuzzi with them... no need to say how Giorgio was excited about that !!! The atmosphere was so intimate, like to be in a family... of 200 members..


Steve attended the whole gig and after it he reached us in the dressing room, having really nice words for what and how we played our setilist ! You can be sure it's been a great reward for a non-tribute band like us, believing so much in what we do with Genesis material along with our own music.


We'd really like to say thanks to John and Nick for our time together... we've enjoyed it immensely !

Thanks to Steve Hackett for the big surprise in Rotherham and for such an encouragement from his side !

On May 22nd - The Watch will be part of the STEVE HACKETT EVENT - LE GARE FranceSalle polyvalenteGrand Rue68480 WERENTZHOUSE (FRANCE) infos: http://www.genesisfrance.fr/
We are really looking forward to it !!!
