Concept records and rock operas aren't what they used to be. Hell, records in general aren't what they used to be. But Friday, the Musical Box - a Quebec-based Genesis tribute act that bills itself as the only band in the entire world to cozy up to Genesis and Peter Gabriel enough to acquire the performing rights and access to archives, audio tracks and the original images for The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - will perform the classic rock opera, in its entirety, in Tacoma, at the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts.
PREDICTION: Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins won't be there, but your prog-rock loving dad might be.

[Pantages Theater, Friday, Oct. 14, 7:30 p.m., $29-$75, 901 Broadway, Tacoma, 253.591.5894]
