"The Musical Box" is a band that has toured worldwide exclusively playing Genesis music for over 15 years, but is SO much more than just a "tribute" band. Each show aims to be a true replica of the original show as given by the lineup at the time, the singer being either Peter Gabriel or Phil Collins.
The show I saw last night was a trip to the "Trick of the Tail" tour with costumes, effects and a great deal of attention to how Phil Collins adapted to being front man for the band for the first time.

Just saw a great show: ever heard of "The Musical Box"?
That must have been a great show, I only heard about it after the fact on the radio. I hear they come every year to Montreal. I will make sure to attend next year.
What are the odds that someone has the same face , the same voice and a great presence on stage as Phil Collins? He must be a clone.
