"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Wait, wut? There are people who know who Phil Collins is, but don't know he was the Drummer (AND also did vocals!) in Genesis for over 25 years, including Lead Vocals for 20 years of that time?

I was able to accomplish a bucket list item by flying to see Phil in concert in Miami in 2018. It was his first stop in the US on his first tour to the US in over a decade. The money spent on excellent floor seats, airfare, hotel, etc. was sooooo worth it. It was an amazing experience, and while the years have slowed him down some, he is still an excellent performer and his great voice is absolutely still intact!
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

I just heard that this morning while watching the final scene for a different, much newer show. I won't spoil it by saying the show.
Really was one of the best Miami Vice scenes.

nice
i think i just blew out my little computer speakers
One of the more iconic songs AND scenes from the 80's. His duet with Philip Baily, Easy Lover is a favorite, just an upbeat, catchy tune when I need some bounce in the day.
A guy like Phil Collins wouldn't get promoted let alone signed by a label today as he doesn't check any of the beauty and edgy boxes that today's entertainment prefers.

Guilty. I know who Phil Collins is, I enjoy his stuff, I had no idea he was a drummer. Wasn't important to my enjoyment, I guess lol.

He's a very highly regarded drummer too.
I saw him at the Orpheum Theater in Boston after his third solo album...around 1983. It was truly one of the best concerts I ever saw.

I’ve been a fan of Phil Collin’s back to his days with Genesis. I loved Abacab.

Went to a Clapton concert about 20 years ago. I had 3rd row seats so a clear view of the stage and band. Lights came on and there was Phil Collins playing the drums for him. It wasn't until later in the concert that Clapton mentioned him and that was all that was said. It was like he was just some guy back there hittin the skins. Very cool.
