NA Tour to include Montreal on September 15th???

A couple of local Montreal Radio stations have suggested recently that Genesis will be making a stop in Montreal on September 15th to be staged at the Olympic Stadium (Big Owe).

However a news article written in the La Presse newspaper say the show is going to take place on the 14th.

If this information turns out to be true, then it would suggest that the band would either be playing at stadiums on the North American leg or a mixture of arenas/stadiums. It will also mean that Genesis will be the first band to play at this venue since U2 back in 1997. All will be revealed on March 7th.

You can view an English translation of the La Press report here.

On another note, Rolling Stone magazine has reported that the band have been confirmed to appear at Al Gore's Live Earth 24 concert event on July 7th. Genesis are appearing in Manchester on that day, and the only feasible way they could be included in this global concert is via a satellite link-up.
