Phil Collins 18:06 - Aug 11 with 3531 viewsqprxtc

Just watched a Genesis concert from 1980 at the Lyceum. Bloody enjoyed it. I know the whole QPR Phil thing, but I like him. Gets too much grief from idiots in bands like Oashit.

Now, Noel Gallagher. F ucking one trick pony.

Kick his arse Phil.

I really don't like Oasis, but that's patent nonsense.

There are 21 year olds I work with who would pay like a grand if Oasis reformed tomorrow


STUIDLY QUOTED A POST ABOUT OASIS. MY REPLY IS ABOUT PHIL COLLINS.

Spent several hours interviewing him in 2018 for the sleevenotes to a box set. I really liked him, and it made me think very differently about his music. He's so insecure you wouldn't believe it.

A mate of mine was at Manchester met uni when Oasis were still a local band. He wrote music reviews for the student rag. He is a beatles fanatic and immediately loved Oasis. At the end of a pub gig he had a pint with Noel and asked how he wrote his songs. He pulled out the Beatles songbook from a bag and said he just got this out and mucked about with the chord progressions and a song would come to him. Winning formula.

Two relevant points on this thread...
Firstly, no one should ever be subjected to genesis and their self indulgent twaddle, EVER. I remember just as the punk explosion happened one of my friends bringing in a lamb lies down on Broadway album and expecting everyone to enjoy it. It’s nonsense, and should be confined to dark dungeons, way beyond any bodies reach.
Secondly, I put the oasis show on at the water rat for Alan McGee as a favour I paid them £100 and 12 cans of Heineken. Alan was insistent that they were goiNg to be massive. I had about 35 paying punters and oasis did indeed go on to be being massive.
What do I know, eh??

I sold my Genesis albums to Sellanbys in South Harrow. I wouldn't have done that if he didn't dump Rangers.



"What's that, Noel?"

I knew about him becoming a Spurs fan but I can't remember the how, when or why?

Superb shirt. Around the time Phil Collins was wearing QPR tops was around 1976 to 78. One reason it was a great shirt the 76 season and we were for a period after promotion in 73 to around 78 were trendy. Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea during this period were under performing, Chelsea were also 2nd division. I just reckoned he liked the shirt. Collins was also at the Barbara Speke's stage shool in the area in the 60s so may have developed a liking for the Rsss.
