Progressive rockers Genesis produced a string of hits in the 1980s before members went on to do solo projects, with Gabriel producing the number one hit Sledgehammer.

The last week of the European leg of Ozzy Osbourne's Ozzfest 2002 tour has been cancelled to allow guitarist Zakk Wylde "to return home early to recuperate from mental and physical exhaustion".

The cancelled seven dates are between 4 and 16 June and include Lisbon, Milan, Zurich, Stockholm, Helsinki, St Petersburg and Moscow.

The US leg of the tour will start on 6 July in Washington DC.
