french_disko Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 What has he got to do with a thread on Genesis anyway? Are Roxy Music a shit band because Bryan Ferry did some droopy solo stuff? Are The Who shit because Daltry did some droopy solo stuff? Are Cream shit because of Clapton's solo career?No, I expressed an opinion on a member of Gensis, simple as that. You like him because he does great "drum duets", I don't like him because he's a twat. Simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marillionboy Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Actually I never mentioned drums duets. Him and Chester Thomspon were great drummers but their duets I found tedious.And Zep's shitness at Live Aid was due to them being off their heads and underreheasaed and having two poorly briefed drummers. Get your facts right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your facts right.It's a well documented fact that they were shit because of Phil - it says it the "Big Book of Rock Facts 1987 (Swahili Edition)". That's twice you've told me I'm ill-informed or need to get my fact rights & not bothered backing up your points with source material. Get you and your superiority complex, eh?Just saying it's right doesn't make it right you, know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's move onto, oo, Elton John who ruined the Lion King for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

french_disko Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Nope... but didn't stop him from being away from his desk all day so I couldn't get it back and was stuck with Genesis for a mere 8 hours.I ended up opting for the hip sounds of the whirring photocopier.Was it really 8 hours? Or did listening to Genesis just make it feel like 8? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marillionboy Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Couldn't open the Guardian piece but the Collins is a Tory (er, since when does that make someone a bad drummer?) is based on a notion that he wanted to leave the country if the Labour party got in. In fact he said that Tory or Labour were making it crazy to stay in the country under their proposed tax reforms. Plenty of people we all know voted Tory in the 80s, but he didn't.

I hate this whole "leave the country" statement that millionaires say - it's almost like "i've got my money so the rest of society can f*ck off & starve". It makes it even worse after singing about the homeless in "Another Day In Paradise". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always have a selection of about 4 CD's to work to save listening to workmates droning on the phone. Currently listening to - Killing Joke's first album.

Taking CD's ensures I catch up on listening to latest purchases. I used to load everything onto the i pod but it is almost full. Now editing i pod to a best songs selection.

Shadowstalker Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Anything involving Phil Collins is going to be horrible.What a retarded thing to say. Granted his solo stuff is pish but listen to his drum work on the early Genesis records and Brand X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
