Thanks for the memories, Peter

Thanks to Ezri for this alert

Peter Gabriel has revealed he’s working on a new website which he dubs “the first social network for the dead”.

The rock legend says TheMemory.com will be a way to store memories and remember loved ones.

He also revealed that his hectic schedule does not mean he is willing to give up time with his own nearest and dearest.

The former Genesis frontman has a six-year-old son and another son on the way with his second wife. He also has two adult daughters.

“I’m very fascist about family time nowadays. I don’t work weekends. That’s very important,” he said. “Being a dad is still the thing that has given me the most pleasure in life.”

Peter has been working on projects from a song for the Pixar-Disney animation movie Wall-E to recording at his Real World Studios.

But he still loves touring, although he says he will not do year-long tours anymore because of his family.

“It’s balancing life with any other life. Nothing beats the experience of playing live music with great musicians,” he said.
