daryl ci racconta di helsinki:

"Hello from Helsinki, this is Daryl Stuermer. I thought I'd give you a bit of an update. Last night we did our last run-through rehearsal. We ran through the whole show, and we did it outdoors here in Helsinki. We did find out that basically, we're going to be doing the show in the light, because although we're beginning our show at 7:45 p.m., it's sunny, and it's going to stay sunny – unless it becomes cloudy – but it's going to stay light until we're through with the show.

The trouble with that is that a lot of the effects will be lost with the light. We feel bad about that because the Helsinki fans have been waiting a long time for this show, but hopefully the music will win them over and we'll have a good show.

The weather and the temperature here has been very nice, it's 72 degrees Fahrenheit here, so I've been doing a lot of walking around the town, running into the fans and taking photos with the fans, and there's been fans outside of the hotel, and they've all been very, very nice and very polite.

So there's been a lot of walking, but now we're waiting for the show. Everyone's been a little anxious – we're always a little nervous before the first show – but we'll get over that after we do a few songs, and I'm sure the fans will actually give us that energy and that positive vibe that we need to play. So hopefully we'll have a great show tonight. Wish us luck and pray for no rain.

I guess I'll be signing off right now from Helsinki. I'll give you an update on the show we do, and I'll talk to you next time. Bye-bye."

Sempre su Helsinki Daryl ci racconta lo show[:D]

Hello, this is Daryl Stuermer talking to you from Helsinki, Finland, the morning after the first show.

From the moment we played the first chord of the first song, I knew everything was going to go well. The audience was right there with us, and it actually wasn't as bright as we expected it to be – Even though there was sun pretty much through about half of the show, it tended to get a little bit darker as we went along, and actually a lot of the effects that were on the screen came up very well and the audience just reacted to it all.

Some of the other comments I heard after the show were that they thought it was the best-sounding show we ever had, and I think its also due to the fact that the band is playing better than ever.

I also think that everybody is just so happy to be back together again playing. It's been 15 years, and I have to say that it doesn't feel like fifteen years, it feels more like 15 months. I think the chemistry between us all is what is going to make this work.

I know I've said this before, but it not only feels like a band reunion, it feels like a family reunion. Feels like we've all kind of grown up together. We've all been playing together – at least I've been playing with them since my mid-20s, and now some of our kids are that age. And so it's really a nice feeling when we all get together and see what's happened. And I think that has something to do with how we are all playing so well together and how the show has come together so easily.

And I believe is only going to go up from here.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you all out there. I'm looking forward to seeing you on the European tour and then on the North American Tour.

So I'm going to sign off from Helsinki. I wish you all the best, and take care!

Daryl Stuermer

Stanno facendo a pezzi il vecchio repertorio degli anni settanta. Un massacro su tutti i fronti: timbrico, strutturale, ritmico, tonale, emozionale, estetico e pure etico. Scusate ma devo proteggermi: ascoltare questi Genesis può far male al cuore e all'anima. Sono una persona troppo sensibile. Cedo.

Il punto di vista emozionale è soggettivo.
Ma per queste aspetterò Roma,per giudicare.
Eticamente sono le loro musiche,hanno il diritto di poterle rifare come meglio credono.
Riguardo alle caratteristiche "timbriche, strutturali, ritmiche, tonali,sono d'accordo con te,il paragone non regge.
Ma mi chiedo è giusto pretenderlo?

Sull'"emozionale" hai ragione: è soggettivo. Avrei invece molte riserve sul discorso "etico"; e forse varrebbe la pena aprire una discussione su cosa sia giusto e corretto pretendere oggi da musicisti che si avviano verso i sessant'anni, e che hanno passato troppi di questi ultimi anni (lustri?) a remare contro la loro creatività e il loro talento personale. Anche questo è un discorso etico: me ne resi pienamente conto solo qualche tempo fa, quando scrissi la rece per Seven di Banks, immediatamente dopo aver ascoltato la sua intera produzione da solista. Forse conviene spostarsi all'altro topic, quello sulle critiche "ai miei amati". Così, per qualche ultima precisazione, non per altro.
