That's obviously from the So tour, during the original tour Peter was wearing his 'monkey face' makeup. He's a little 'G.Q.' in this one.

I've told this story before.you know you are an old fan when you start repeating stories. Anyway,in the early days of my PGO (O stands for obsession of course) I phoned up my classic rock station (Vancouver) to request a Peter Gabriel song.I asked for The Family and the Fishing Net.the DJ said he'd have to check out the song first, cause some of Gabriel's songs are "weird and freaky" I lost my cool and almost shouted."what do you mean weird and freaky!!!?" When the dj went back on the air, he was still laughing, and then he played "Solsbury Hill"

Ezri, you asked for the weirdest & freakiest (?!? :-] PG song (and my all time favourite incidentally). T-DOGG: it looks and sounds like the 1983 version (there are Fast and Marotta), but why isn't Peter wearing the monley makeup?
