The Invisible Touch Tour was a worldwide concert tour by the English rock band Genesis. The tour began on 18 September 1986 in Detroit and ended on 4 July 1987 in London.[1] London dates at Wembley Stadium were filmed for a video release entitled Genesis Live at Wembley Stadium. The group earned as much as $300,000 a night in North America alone.[2] The five shows in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. in May 1987 grossed $5.4 million and were attended by a total of 273,414 people.[3]

Whilst the setlist varied, this is a representation of the average setlist from this tour.[4] Each show opened with the music video to "Anything She Does" from Invisible Touch. "Invisible Touch", "Throwing It All Away" and "Land of Confusion" were performed in a lower key to make it easier for Collins to sing and protect his voice.[5]

  2. "Abacab"
  3. "Land of Confusion"
  4. "That's All"
  5. "Domino"
  6. "Your Own Special Way" (performed in Australia only and with a string section)
