It's a fairly typical live performance until about 1'15", the point where Peter Gabriel gets on his bicycle (I believe it's a Moulton) and rides casually around the stage.
I don't think there's enough of this kind of thing. Can anyone think of other examples of non-rock artifacts used in such a distinctly rock environment?

I went to see Les Savy Fav
I went to see Les Savy Fav at The Garage and their singer, seemingly bored with the the small stage, took a stool into the middle of the audience, stood on top of it, and did the gig right there.
Non-rock equipment
I see your bike and I raise you a trampette.
A trampette?
Ah, Nils.
Who can forget the NME review comment from a London gig back in his A&M 'Cry Tough' career days.
"..even his scarves have scarves"
Head, wrist, neck, guitar, etc. He had a trampoline then too.
Does livestock count?
For ZZ Top's 76 tour they used live cattle, bison, rattlesnakes and cactus on stage for set dressing,
Ian Brown's yo-yo
At a Roses' gig, can't recall which one.
Thunder On The Tundra
Nonsense
If Thor were a real man, he'd do it without the goggles.
