Sting and Peter Gabriel recently wrapped their joint Rock Paper Scissors Tour with a performance at Rexall Place in Edmonton, Canada on Sunday night. The collaborative concert saw Gabriel \u2013 the former Genesis frontman \u2013 sing one of the band\u2019s songs live for the first time since 1982.<\/p>\n
Throughout the tour Sting would introduce his hit \u201cMessage In A Bottle\u201d with an arrangement of the intro to the Genesis song \u201cDancing With the Moonlit Knight,\u201d whose lyrics provided the title to their acclaimed 1973 Selling England By The Pound LP. Sunday\u2019s tour finale featured Gabriel singing the first two stanzas of lyrics to the Genesis song for the first time live in 34 years.<\/p>\n

Genesis played their first and to date only show with Peter Gabriel since 1975 on October 2, 1982 in Milton Keynes, England. An excerpt of \u201cDancing With The Moonlit Knight\u201d was played as part of that show. Peter Gabriel has stuck to solo material at his own concerts since performing \u201cThe Lamb Lies Down On Broadway\u201d with Phil Collins at the 1979 Reading Festival.<\/p>\n
