Thread: Phil Collins sits in with Miami High School Band!

    Phil Collins sits in with Miami High School Band!

    http://www.prog-sphere.com/news/phil...band-on-stage/

    Actually, not too bad for his first performance in four years.

    You know what: I always think that when a superstar does this that it's really d..n nice of them. Phil didn't have to do this, yet he did.
    And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make.

    Carl Palmer has been doing this sort of thing for years with visually & deaf impaired kids/schools!

    What took PC so long to give his spare time to a good cause?

    Because he's an evil bastard. Is that the right answer (in your head)?

    I'll leave others to point out all the good causes PC has given his time to over the decades...

    IMO I think this is pretty dam cool and good of him to do this. These kids in the band will have something to talk about and remember for the rest of their lives. And who knows what the future may bring for some of these kids if they dive deep into the Genesis catalogue! Maybe part of the next Prog generation!

    Ah, but you're missing the darker implications. One of these little s**ts will grow up to be the mediocre guy at that gig who constantly goes, "Well, when I was playing with Phil Collins...," or "Yeah, well who are you going to believe, that dude or me? I played with Phil Collins, dammit."

    Rufus, have you thought about seeking help for your 'Genesis problem'? It's dominating every thread on here lately!

    Good to have Phil back in any capacity. He made some much more optimistic comments about playing and writing again a little while ago.

    I think his son, Nick, is in school here. I think Nick is the drummer.

    So clueless. Collins has contributed dramatic amounts of time and money to charity for decades. More than you could possibly imagine.

    Indeed! How can anyone not think this is something awesome for Phil to be doing?

    Na, it well known in the circles. As for his charity work, he's never lifted a finger in his life. Most celebs donate money for tax relief reasons, not for any compassionate reason. I only have respect fir those that give up their time free of charge. Collins don't neet that criteria!

    I agree, considering he had to adapt to the beat misses of the band.
    Anyone finding anything negative about this has got issues!
    Odd that no one has mentioned that it is his son Nick that is playing the drums.

    Well, why don't you enlighten us to your body of charitable work?

    So, did Phil steal your girlfriend or something?
