      @@rodolfodanilomunozurmeneta882 They are OK instrumentally, but not even close to Simone 's vocals. He has a sound all of his own, but brings an emotional quality to the vocals on a par with Peter Gabriel. Very few cover bands seem to be able to manage that. The bottom line is how the band affects us as listeners, and right now The Watch are doing it for me when it comes to Genesis music.

    To have John H playing with them they would have to be exceptional. And they are! The guitarist has Steve's tone down perfectly. The vocalist sounds so much like Pete but also manages to add an extra something of his own to the phrasing that enhances the song even further. What can one say? Magnifico! Grazie! Che band fantastica!

Je n'ai pas compris quand tout s'est arrêté après 2 heures. Je croyais que çà commençait à peine. J'étais transporté par cette musique, par ces mélodies. Après le concert, les 5 musiciens sont directement venus au bar discuter avec nous. En toute simplicité. Ces moments tellement rares se doivent d'être appréciés à leur juste valeur. Merci Simone, Fracesco, Giorgio, Valerio, Matteo. Et surtout à l'année prochaine. Etienne
