The Calling All Stations Tour was a tour by the band Genesis to promote the album Calling All Stations.

Background

This tour was the first to feature the new lead singer

Nir Zidkyahu and Anthony Drennan
taking their places respectively.

To coincide with the album release date in Europe and the United States, Genesis played two acoustic concerts - on 26 August the group performed atop a

Berlin Television Tower, and two days later in the United States at the Kennedy Space Center
.

Following the release of the album, dates for the first concerts were announced. The Calling All Stations tour was to begin in the United States with a string of 23 arena concerts. These plans were later revised, shortening the tour to 20 shows in smaller venues, before the North American leg of the tour was postponed in mid-October, with a delay in the production schedule cited as the official reason[1]. During this time, the band played two radio concerts for small audiences in Copenhagen and Paris.

The tour eventually saw the band play 47 shows in Europe from January to April 1998, with additional headline shows at the Rock am Ring and Rock im Park festivals in May. Initially new American dates for 1998 were to be announced, but the tour was concluded after the European leg.

Band rehearsals for the tour were held at the Ex-Service Mens Club in

Bray Film Studios
in Windsor.
