About me: Hello everyone! I am a huge Peter Gabriel fan and have decided to start up a fan page for him. The information listed on this page was found at Wikipedia.org. For more information please click on the link. You can also visit Peter's official website at www.petergabriel.com
Recently, Peter Gabriel has been working with video game companies Cyan Worlds and Ubisoft to aid in the sound production of their latest video games. The 2003 videogame Uru: Ages Beyond Myst featured the song "Burn You Up, Burn You Down" in several portions of the game. The song, in a different mix, features the Blind Boys of Alabama (who also collaborated with Gabriel on the song "Sky Blue") and was on a press release copy of Up, but deleted before the album's actual release.
Gabriel played on stage with Cat Stevens 33 years after having played on Stevens' Mona Bone Jakon album. The event happened in Johannesburg during Nelson Mandela's 46664 concert. The two British artists performed Stevens' old hit "Wild World".
The 2004 release of Myst IV: Revelation (developed by Ubisoft Montreal) featured a song called "Curtains", originally a B-side from the single to "Big Time" from So. The song, slightly remixed from its original version, is also often called 'Portal to Serenia' or 'Portal to Dreamworld'. Gabriel also performs a large voice acting part in the game.
Also in 2004, Gabriel performed a cover version of "The Book of Love," a song by The Magnetic Fields, on the soundtrack to the film Shall We Dance?. He compered and performed at the Eden Project Live 8 concert in July 2005. A DVD of this show has already been released.
Peter Gabriel has two daughters from his first marriage to wife Jill: Melanie and Anna. Melanie was a backing vocalist during Gabriel's 2002 Growing Up tour, and Anna filmed a documentary of that same tour, called Growing Up On Tour: A Family Portrait, currently available on DVD. Gabriel and his second wife, Maebh, had a son, Isaac, in 2002.
A new double DVD set, Peter Gabriel Live & Unwrapped, was released on October 24th, 2005.
The next DVD release will be the concert film POV (Point Of View) - previously available on VHS. It is getting the full 5.1 remix treatment at the moment in his Realworld studios.
FIFA, the international football governing body, asked Peter Gabriel and Brian Eno to organize an opening ceremony for the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals in Germany, planned to take place a couple of days before the actual start of the tournament's matches. The man who only recently became a fan of the game and European champions Liverpool was working on songs for the show in Berlin's Olympic Stadium, although the show was cancelled in January 2006 by FIFA due to going overbudget and supposed lack of interest, though the official explanation was potential damage to the pitch.
Rumours of a possible reunion of the classic Genesis line-up have also been circulating, since Phil Collins stated in an interview that he is open to the idea of sitting back behind the drums and "let Peter be the singer." The classic line-up has only reformed for a live performance once before, in 1982. However, the group did work together to create a new version of an old Genesis song The Carpet Crawlers 1999 which was released on the Genesis Hits record. Supposedly the new version was very hard to put together. On December 1, 2005, Genesis issued a statement saying the band has no plans to perform and that for at least the next year the issue will not be revisited.
Gabriel's song "Big Time" is the official theme song of World Wrestling Entertainment's WrestleMania 22.
Gabriel performed John Lennon's "Imagine" at the Opening Ceremonies of the Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy on February 10, 2006.
Cingular Wireless has aired commercials featuring Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill."
Gabriel is currently recording a new studio album, which will be his first new album release since UP in 2002. The album is rumoured to be titled I/O and as of yet has no release date.
Gabriel's song "Digging in the Dirt" is now being used for promotional videos for the new FX show starring Courteney Cox called "

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
EN CONCERT LUNDI 12 OCT. - PARIS XX - STUDIO DE L'ERMITAGE SAMEDI 24 OCT. - MARSEILLE - FIESTA DES SUDS
WORLD SOUND L'un des OVNIs de cette rentrée musicale et une réussite incontestable...
ROCK'N'FOLK Porté par une voix éraillée et fascinante, le résultat ne ressemble a rien de connu, brassant poésie, rock, musiques méditerranéennes traditionnelles et d'influences occitanes dans des chansons mutantes à fort pouvoir évocateur.
VIBRATIONS L'album Extatic Malancòni , manifeste poignant, s'ouvre part un riff "stoogien" à la mandole et la tension ne retombe jamais. Sans doute le chant de Karpienia y est-il pour beaucoup, si dense qu'on encaisse physiquement le poids des textes rageurs.
MONDOMIX Après quelques courts bruissements de mandole, dès les premières minutes de cet album, la voix de Sam Karpienia est déjà au zénith. Musicalement, les paysages dévoilés sont racés et cohérents ils semblent vierges, ou offrent tout du moins une hybridation originale, entre transe méditerranéenne, urgences rock et lyrisme occitan.
Our new CD The Underfall Yard is released in December 2009 (we're very proud of it). You can download the title track, a 23 minute prog epic FREE at www.bigbigtrain.com
Once again the band are joined on drums by Nick D'Virgilio (Spock's Beard, Tears For Fears, Genesis) and new passengers on this particular journey include Dave Gregory (XTC, Peter Gabriel), Francis Dunnery (It Bites) and Jem Godfrey (Frost*).

Hello I have set up a petition on the Number 10 Epetition website. It is a challenge to all polititians : PROVE ME WRONG. If you agree with the two statements below please use the link provided to sign up. If you dont believe it please just put 'the emperor wears no clothes' into google read the evidence and make an informed decision.
1. The hemp legislation enforced in the world today, and since the 1930's, has caused more death, destruction and environmental damage than any decision by any politition or humanbeing in history. 2. Putting hemp BACK in its rightful position as humanities number one crop, raw material, fuel,food,and medicine ( as it had been since pre-histiry and in parts since the dawn of mankind), has the very real and possible potential of not just slowing down global warming, but actually REVERSING IT!!!
But how? You ask. Well for a start it is one of the worlds fastest growing plants and produces more fibre, seed/oil, cellulose than any other crop and its a green manure, so it actually puts goodness back into the soil, and needs no fertiliser or pesticide. In 1941 Henry Ford had IN PRODUCTION the worlds first 'alcohol engined' eco car; its bodywork, dashboard, seat covers, plastic fittings etc, wre made from hemp and it ran on methanol from hemp. It is the only single plant food source that a humanbeing can live on -indefinitely- and contains all the essential omega's in the perfect ratio for us!
Too good to be true? Or too good for the oil industry, pharmaceuticals and agro-chemicals, not to want to misinform about, conceal and scapegoat.
Politicians and others in power refuse to address this issue with anything even approaching, honest, informed, rational and balanced intentions and debate. Due to this, it is my intention to continue feeding the birds, best quality cannabis sativa - hemp seed - wherever I go, and to continue to give bags of the seeds to anyone who wants them, to do with them as they will. Yours Mark A. Cha
