Calling All Stations Tour


Following the album's poor commercial performance in the US, a 23-date North American tour in large arenas was booked to start in November 1997 but it was cancelled due to insufficient ticket sales. A revised 20-date schedule in smaller venues was also cancelled. A Super Audio CD/DVD set with new stereo and 5.1 surround sound mixes was released in September 2007. A CD/DVD set was released in North America in November 2007.
Genesis supported the album with a 47-date European tour from 29 January to 31 May 1998. The core trio were joined by Nir Zidkyahu on drums, percussion, and backing vocals and Irish musician Anthony Drennan on guitar and bass. Rehearsals took place at Bray Film Studios in Windsor and the Working Men's Club in Chiddingfold, England close the band's recording studio. The tour concluded with spots at the Rock am Ring and Rock im Park Festival in Germany. A majority of the older songs were transposed in a lower key to accommodate Wilson's lower vocal range. Midway through the set included an acoustic medley of songs from their 1970s output.
The Calling All Stations Tour featured shows in large arenas throughout Europe. At the tour's conclusion, Genesis went on hiatus, It would be the band's final full-length tour until Collins returned for the, though there was rumors of a summer 1998 North America tour with Prog Rock band Yes this never materialized.
