The ‘Back To Front’ tour, which began in the US amassing stunning reviews along the way, sees Gabriel reunited with musicians who backed his live touring work: bass wizard Tony Levin, guitarist David Rhodes, keyboardist David Sancious and drummer Manu Katche.

As he told the Las Vegas Review:

“ It felt strange and very familiar at the same time when we started," he said. "It is strange the way relationships just carry on exactly the same way they were really, except maybe you hope you've mellowed and are a tiny bit wiser for having lived longer. But I wouldn't put a lot of money on it."

When Peter started work on this, his fifth album, in February 1985 in an old farmhouse called Ashcombe near Bath he had no idea of the explosive and enduring impact this album would have. Released in 1986, ‘So’ became one of the defining albums of the era, landing multitudes of awards, millions of sales and huge hits such as ‘Sledgehammer,’ ‘ Don’t Give Up’ with Kate Bush, ‘Say Anything,’ and ‘In Your Eyes’ – the song immortalised by John Cusack in the film ‘ Say Anything.’

Describing the time on his website Gabriel notes:

"I think when we played the album back we knew it was good. It wasn’t like I was an obscure artist; I’d had hits with Shock The Monkey, Games Without Frontiers and Solsbury Hill but after each of them I’d purposefully retreated partially back into the shadows. With 'So' this was the end of the idea of me being a sort of cult artist at the fringes of the mainstream, especially in America. There wasn’t an option to go and hide in the shadows any more."

Apropos of the 25th anniversary, the tour gives a chance to relive the era of this genius album.

"Time leaves an indelible stamp on everything. When you revisit your past you can no longer live inside it, but you can walk around it, open up old memories and occasionally catch the scent of some place in which you lived".

There are 5 different seating and standing tickets available for the Peter Gabriel show at the Budapest Sportarena on 6th May, 2014.
