kevingamin Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I notice that the pillars in Genesis' show now have purple shrouds of some type in their centers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 In the pre-show, a female guard member and male horn member dance together while narration states that he is her life, her only. Oh, honey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Genesis basses on point to start the show. Horns have a great full body sound as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
