I don’t think anyone would agree with your comments on Hackett leaving not even Hackett. At the time he complained of not enough song writing credits.
Spotify will tell you all you need to know about hacketts fascimilie of Genesis . Very kind of Genesis to let his tribute band tour.

Woke up this morning....
Philosophers have only interpreted the world - the point, however, is to change it. No it isn't ... maybe we should leave it alone for a while.

The reason he didn't get much song-writing exposure was because what he wanted to do was out of kilter with what the other three wanted to do so they rather froze him out. QED, he left because he didn't like the direction Collins, Banks and Rutherford were takng it in.Daniel Quinn wrote: ↑Sun Jan 02, 2022 9:45 am I don’t think anyone would agree with your comments on Hackett leaving not even Hackett.

You could have just answered 'no, I've never been to a Hackett gig'.Daniel Quinn wrote: ↑Sun Jan 02, 2022 9:45 am Spotify will tell you all you need to know about hacketts fascimilie of Genesis . Very kind of Genesis to let his tribute band tour.
Anyway, perhaps I should thank you for taking a little pressure off my wallet - no need to pay out for expensive tickets to experience a live event when a Spotify subscription will suffice.
Sorry, I couldn't resist!

If you were thinking of watching Hackett do Genesis , it’s a wise choice.
Ps. Why do people do people insist on getting so indignant when your personal views don’t chime with theirs and you express these strongly for entertainment? Anybody would think I voted Tory

I didn't realise that there was such a thing as an egg spoon - we always used teaspoons to eat chucky eggs when I was a kid.

There you are Chris.
Also, if the egg cup is a tad too small for the egg, pointy end down helps a bit.
