~ Genesis – Cinema Show (Excerpt) – Live at the O2 Arena, London, UK on March 24th 2022. Full video is up on YouTube! Link in bio. I was going through some old videos and came across some drum cam footage from the Genesis “The Last Domino?” Tour. So I thought I’d put together a quick edit along with some board audio. Going back over old live videos is always a weird thing for me. On one hand, I’m proud of what I’ve done, but there’s always that feeling of “What could I have done better?” or “How could I have played it differently?”. I approached “Cinema Show” similarly to the way it was played on almost every tour from the mid 80s onwards. At the end of the day, my responsibility was making sure the songs could sound the best they could, while also making sure that the band was comfortable and playing what they were used to. But looking back, I think there’s some bits from the “Seconds Out” version that I would have liked to incorporate a bit more. But that being said, I was super happy with how all the songs turned out and I’ll always cherish the memories I got to make with my old man and his bandmates. Also, a shoutout to my percussion brother @dtalemusic 🤝 playing these tunes with you as a blast 💥 ~
Nic Collins teaches you how to play Chester Thompson’s iconic fill from Frank Zappa’s “More Trouble Every Day”. 🕺 This fill inspired Phil Collins to incorporate it into ‘Duke’s Travels/Duke’s End.’ It’s a breathtakingly complex and captivating moment in the history of progressive rock.” 👊🏼 Watch the full Nic Collins’ #DrumeoLIVE where he reflects on his experience playing with Genesis and touring as part of the band. He also discusses his drumming career and the influence of his father, Phil Collins. 🙏🏼 @nic_collins @officialphilcollins #drumeo #drumcover #drums #drummer #drummers #drumming #instadrums #drumstagram #drummersofinstagram #drumfam #drumlife #drummerlife #we_love_drums #drumuniversity #igreels #reelsinstagram #reels #drumset #drumkit #drumsticks #philcolins #whiplash #genesisband #drumsdrumsdrums #bateria #frankzappa #chesterthompson #drumeo #teamdrumeo #philcollins
