(HMG) – Peter Gabriel has said that he does not plan to join his former Genesis bandmates onstage for the group’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction in March. Fans were hoping the induction would lead to a reunion for the band’s original line-up for the first time in nearly 30 years, but Gabriel insists he has no plans of teaming up with Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks, who reformed as Genesis in 2008 for a world tour. In fact, the “Sledgehammer” hitmaker isn’t sure he’ll even attend the March 15th induction ceremony in New York, since he’ll be in the midst of rehearsing for a European solo tour. “I’m trying to

find a way to do it,” he says. “It’s not easy. If I can work it out, I’ll go.” Gabriel tells Rolling Stone though that it’s nothing personal against his former bandmates: “I learned at our last reunion [in 1982] that you can’t just get up there. You have to rehearse.” Gabriel says, the group is more likely to collaborate on a possible movie project: “The only thing that might happen is that some people talk about a film of the Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. If it is to happen, we might work together on that. We’ll see.”
