Growing Up Live captures Peter Gabriel’s complete 2003 Milan concert from the Up tour, featuring 17 songs over 134 minutes. The performance uses a revolving stage, with Gabriel cycling “Solsbury Hill,” playing “Growing Up” inside a Zorb, and walking a sky‑walk with his daughter on “Downside Up.” Backed by David Rhodes (guitar) and Tony Levin (bass), he is joined by the Blind Boys of Alabama for “Sky Blue,” and blends newer tracks such as “Darkness” and “The Barry Williams Show” with classic hits.
