Gabriel passes on Genesis reunion
Peter Gabriel sang with Genesis in the early stages of their career
Former Genesis singer Peter Gabriel says he will not be joining his bandmates for an upcoming reunion tour.
Gabriel, 56, was a founding member of the band, singing with them until 1975, when he left to pursue a solo career.
"There were conversations and I decided not to be a part of it," Gabriel told BBC News.
His replacement, former drummer Phil Collins, has confirmed he will take part in the reunion tour, which was announced earlier this week.
"I'm very happy for them," said Gabriel.
"It's not that I've ruled it out, but I've got some new material that I'll be working on."
A spokesman for Genesis said specific details of the tour and "long term plans" including possible new material would be announced in the next few weeks.

Now Peter Gabriel has commented on the Reunion discussion in his latest Full Moon Club Video (available on Peter's own site). Peter says that Genesis (Tony, Mike and Phil) are currently rehearsing together to check what they will be doing. Peter also says that he is "not involved in this round this year (...) I haven't ruled out the posibility of doing something in the future but right now I will focus on my own work". Peter's statement is the first "official" confirmation of "that" October jam-session that was revealed by Phil a few months ago.
