hey this is no time to mock, this song is about our very own rushomancy!
went to see phil collins in '82 and it was great but when he started playing "in the air tonight" he put a big spotlight on me and then the cops came and arrested me. turned out i'd murdered somebody a couple years previously and phil saw the whole thing and wrote the song about me, and i wound up doing twenty for it, so i never saw the end of the show.
the phenix horns were great that night, though.

It's bad enough that he's going through this humiliating divorce, which is getting increasingly ugly and public and personal. But it broke my heart when I saw a picture of him being pushed out of Genesis rehearsals in a wheelchair. I know he uses a cane, and for that last brief solo tour he was seated the entire time, but Phil in a wheelchair ... gosh. That nerve damage must have been even worse than it sounded.

oh lord
morrisp ought to take some comfort that on the most recent SNL Weekend Update, Michael Che made exactly the same "stu-stu-studio" joke.get a good lawyer, morrispJust saw this; pleased that my bad joke was bad enough for SNL!Tonight, my wife and I watched 4 eps. of that silly Emily in Paris show... she looked up the lead actress, and then made me guess who her father is (“Twenty Questions” style). Even after narrowing it down to “singing drummer, popular in the ‘80s,” I was surprised by the reveal.

Kind of suspect these rehearsals are being filmed in case the tour can't happen, for a variety of reasons

Anyway, I found Trey Anastasio's HOF induction speech for Genesis, and he really makes the case for them, especially at the end when he makes it clear that a lot of people probably don't know how good they really were (or could be):

Phil Collins spent millions on fake Alamo relicshttps://www.texasmonthly.com/being-texan/next-battle-of-alamo/
His dealer kept finding items with the initials of famous Alamo people on them, only visible after he put some solvent on them.
Collins bought a knife supposedly belonging to Jim Bowie for $1.5 million. It had been verified as authentic by consulting with psychics.
Many collectors’ puzzlement grew when Collins’s The Alamo and Beyond was published, in 2012. The gorgeously illustrated book is a source of profound skepticism in the Alamo collecting and archaeological worlds. “Just about everything they said was used at the Alamo—these are not Alamo-related items,” says Thomas Nuckols, who volunteers as an archaeological consultant to the Texas Historical Commission and is an expert on Alamo-era artifacts. “A lot of us enjoyed the book just because of the silliness of it.”
The article gets into the ridiculousness of Texas politics in the second half.
