Can't Remember Phil Collin's Farewell Tour











I do not remember Phil Collins did a farewell tour in 2005 culminating in Paris.

I seriously do not think you can picture Phil Collins with hair as in this photograph.

I first heard him when he did the haunting "In the Air Tonight" when I was pretty young of course. I was impressed then naturally. I used to play a bit of drums in a school band then. This guy is just 2 years older than me.



















This is how he looks like now. Still a good looking bloke sans hair.

Philip David Charles "Phil" Collins LVO (born 30 January 1951) is an English singer-songwriter, drummer, keyboardist and actor best known as a drummer and vocalist for English progressive rock group Genesis and as a solo artist,

He has won seven Grammy Awards, an Academy Award, and two Golden Globes for his solo work.

I came upon this farewell tour gig via somebody's introduction.

It is very easy to like this performance. It has got slick beats/percussion, a chorus crescendo towards the end, audience participation, a great number of people in the hall and it has Phil Collins on drums and then singing "Take Me Home".

It should make you feel good.
