LONDON-- Phil Collins , Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford will reform as Genesis for a special one-off performance to honor the band's manager Tony Smith at an awards ceremony in London on September 21. Smith is to receive U.K. music industry laurel the Music Managers Forum's Peter Grant Award for Outstanding Achievement.
