With Peter Gabriel’s Encore Series the idea is a simple one, record the shows directly from the soundboard and then professionally master them to produce complete, unedited live recordings. For the first time a selection of the recordings are now available to stream, exclusively on nugs, starting with four shows from the 2003 ‘Growing Up Live’ Tour.
“Last time we had two stages, a male stage and a female stage, and they were representing different things, urban and rural and this time we have moved the axis vertically, and it’s a sky stage and an earth stage. I want to play a lot of new music because not only has there been the ‘UP’ album, but also the ‘OVO’ record. We also asked on our website and there were votes for different songs, so we’re picking out some of the older ones from there. It’s a sort of combination.” – pg
More shows from the Encore archive to follow soon.
