BBC Special zum "Great Western Express 40th Anniversary"

    KingLerch hat etwas interessantes gepostet im englischen Forum.
    Die BBC plant ein Special zu jenem Great Western Express Festival, und Genesis waren ja damals auch dabei.
    Und Anscheinend hat die BBC dem KingLerch bezüglich Info's angeschrieben :)
    Forums @ Genesis-Movement - View topic - Great Western Express 40th Anniversary

    Zitat

    The end of this month marks the 40th anniversary of The Lincoln Festival (also called The Great Western Express or The Bardney Festival) that took place in Bardney near Lincoln in the north of England. Genesis was originally scheduled to play there on the 29th, but was rescheduled to the 28th for some reason where they played Watcher for the first time and Peter in the Egyptian Prince costume for the first time. For more info, you can see my website here: The Great Western Express - Lincoln Festival May 1972

    The BBC contacted me for info because they were creating a 40th anniversary special set to air on Sunday 27th May 3-5pm on BBC Radio 2 or online at BBC - Radio 2 so it may be an interesting show for fans of Genesis and rock festivals.

    The rain auditions at my window
    Its symphony echoes in my womb
    My gaze scans the walls of this apartment
    To rectify the confines of my tomb

    ... und Peter hat auf Twitter gemeldet, dass es nächste Woche eine wichtige Bekanntmachung gibt ...

    Muss ja ein gewaltiges Happening gewesen sein damals: Strawbs, Cocker, Lindisfarne, Slade, Beach Boys, Don Maclean, Rory Galagher, and the ones to come: Focus, Nazareth, Genesis, Billy Joel
    ... und interessant: Die ungarische Band Locomotive GT
