In the new documentary there is a sequence where Tony Smith is talking about Genesis live productions. You then see a progression of their shows, including a brief shot of the 86/87 tour with the vari*lites moving (pretty sure end of Second Home BTS). The quality is much better than anything I have seen previously and gets across the beauty of these wonderful light shows.

Hello, all! I thought today was going to be a terrible day, but it's actually a quite good one!

(I told him he could use his desk as an "air keyboard") He'd probably spend all day if I didn't make him come out to eat and play outside for awhile. The other day he was downstairs!!! and started singing, "Touch me, touch me, touch me now, now now now now!!" I know my eyes got as big as saucers...could he possible know what he's singing?
