Phil Collins is touring..

I’m sure it will be a pretty entertaining show, but it’s not one I’d go out of my way to attend.

There’s so much live footage of him in concert available to watch.

Maybe you're just not old enough.

I dunno. I appreciate both versions of Genesis. They were both great in my opinion. I love em both and I love solo Phil right up to the Disney stuff. He lost me there.

I don't care anymore.

I’ve always had a guilty love for Phil Collins. He wrote some awesome pop songs in the 80’s that were part of the background to my childhood. Back in the very early 2000’s he came to play City Stages in Birmingham, and my mom got back stage passes that she gave to me, so I took my then-girlfriend and we got to meet him before the show. It was kind of awkward, he pretty clearly didn’t really want to be there, but still, Phil Collins, right?

Then we went out to watch the show, and he proceeded to do nothing but play drums to a bunch of jazz/big band songs. He didn’t sing a single note and didn’t play a single one of his hits. Worst concert I’ve ever attended.

Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work.

Never was a big fan of his. His music just sounds like the definition of bland.
