THE TOUR
The "So Tour" commenced in 1986 shortly after the release of Peter Gabriel's hugely successful fifth studio album titled "So," and continued through 1987. It was one of Peter Gabriel's most significant and memorable tours, featuring performances across various countries and continents. 

The "So" album was a critical and commercial success and included several hit songs such as "Sledgehammer," "In Your Eyes," "Big Time," and "Don't Give Up." The album's success significantly contributed to the popularity of the "So Tour," and Gabriel's performances showcased his dynamic stage presence and innovative use of visual effects and technology.

One of the tour's highlights was the "This Is the Picture (Excellent Birds)" duet with Laurie Anderson. Gabriel's concerts were renowned for their elaborate staging, incorporating elaborate sets, multimedia projections, and innovative lighting techniques. He was known for his ability to create a captivating and immersive experience for the audience.

The "So Tour" received widespread acclaim from both fans and critics alike. It further solidified Peter Gabriel's reputation as an innovative and influential artist in the music industry. The success of the album and the tour also opened up new opportunities for him, allowing him to reach a broader international audience.
