Phil Collins reveals he can “barely hold a drumstick anymore”

Phil Collins, renowned for his music career with Genesis and as a solo artist, faces physical challenges in his musical journey. With a love for music instilled from an early age and early performances, he found his passion.

Joining Genesis in the 1970s, Collins became a key member, eventually taking over as the lead singer. His solo career, featuring hits like “In The Air Tonight” and “You Can’t Hurry Love,” solidified his status in the music industry.

After leaving Genesis for his solo pursuits, Collins reunited with the band in 2017, announcing a world tour. However, due to health issues, he won’t be drumming; his son Nicholas will handle those duties.

Collins cited physical challenges, saying, “I can barely hold a stick with this hand,” leaving him uncertain about touring. Health problems, including dislocated vertebrae and nerve damage from surgery, have impacted his ability to perform.

These health concerns may signal the end of touring for Collins and Genesis, as they contemplate retiring from the road.

MY DAUGHTER SWITCHED SEATS MID-FLIGHT—AND I FOUND OUT WHY TOO LATE It was supposed to be a quiet flight. Just me and my daughter, Reyna, heading to Phoenix to see my sister. I’d packed snacks, downloaded a few cartoons on the iPad, and even brought her unicorn plushie that she won’t sleep without. We boarded early, settled into our seats—me by the window, Reyna in the middle. I had just started zoning out, watching the tarmac, when I realized she was no longer beside me. I turned my head and there she was, squished in next to a man across the aisle, looking up at him like she knew him. “Reyna,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “Come back over here, baby.” She turned to me with the most serious face I’ve ever seen on a four-year-old and said, “No, I wanna sit with Grandpa.” I laughed awkwardly. “Sweetie, that’s not Grandpa.” The man looked just as confused as I was. “I’m sorry,” he said, glancing between us. “I’ve never met her before.” But Reyna didn’t budge. She grabbed the man’s arm with both hands and leaned in like she was guarding him. “She knows me,” she insisted. “You’re Grandpa Mike.” My stomach dropped. Not because I recognized the guy—he was a stranger to me—but because of the name. Mike. That’s my dad’s name. The dad who left when I was seven. The one Reyna’s never met. The one I never talk about. I tried to laugh it off again, but something about the way Reyna kept staring at him made my chest tighten. The man looked just as shaken as I felt. Then he said something I didn’t expect.⬇️ Continue reading in the first comment 👇
