The Musical Box at the Henry Fonda Theater.
When you hear the words �No bite at all in labour
bondage; just wrinkled wrappers or human bandage,�
are you compelled to sing out �The grand parade of
lifeless packaging, all ready to use!� in an English
accent? Then your people have arrived. The Genesis
tribute band to end all Genesis tribute bands come
from Montreal, and call themselves the Musical Box �
named after the grandiose lullaby gone wrong from
Nursery Cryme � and have their masters�
blessing. Yep, the Musical Box are the only band
ever granted a license by Gabriel and company to
perform Genesis material, while faithfully
re-creating masks, costumes, makeup, sets, lighting
design, special effects and choreography, down to
the between-song banter. After successful tours
performing Foxtrot and Selling England by
the Pound, they�re now tackling Genesis�
masterpiece, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.
See how remarkable Denis Gagne is channeling Gabriel
