"From Genesis drummer and eventual frontman to one of the most influential adult contemporary solo artists of all time, Phil Collins has enjoyed more than four decades of rock success. The London native may have started out as a child actor and model, but his move to music in the late 1960s proved more lucrative.
For five years, Collins served as drummer for prog-rock mainstay Genesis, eventually transitioning to singer after the 1975 departure of Peter Gabriel. Collins not only juggled his Genesis days with jazz fusion outfit Brand X, but he also simultaneously nurtured a solo career, beginning in 1981 with “Face Value” and the instant hit single “In the Air Tonight.”
Among tours with both bands, Collins managed to release 13 straight Top 10 hits between 1984 and 1990 as a solo artist, including ‘80s staples like “Easy Lover,” “Sussudio,” “A Groovy Kind of Love” and “Another Day in Paradise.” The multiple award winner was tapped to write and perform the songs for Disney’s 1999 animated film, “Tarzan,” as well as 2003’s “Brother Bear.”
Collins’ most recent collection of new material, “Testify,” surfaced in 2002 and preceded his “First Final Farewell Tour.” He and the Genesis crew, minus Gabriel, joined forces in 2007 for a reunion run. Rumor has it the big-ticket act is considering another get-together in 2014."
Still a great artist! The band was fantastic!!! Phil's son and the rest of the band and crew were amazing!!!
Phil Collins was fantastic, he’s older and isn’t going to dance around the stage. But you’re not here for that anyway. He’s going to belt out your favourites and it’ll be spectacular.
Great concert! Phil and his band were amazing. One of the best concerts I’ve seen, definitely recommend going to see Phil!
Phil is a very funny man and his banter between songs added to the whole experience. His singing was fantastic and the whole accompanying band were wicked. Great great great show!!!!
I’ve been to many many concerts and nothing compared to Phil Collins. His pride in his son and passion for music is outstanding. By far the best concert I have been to, to date.
Totally amazing. I waited along time to see Phil Collins. It was worth the wait.
Phil Colllins show was amazing!!!!! He did a spectacular performance. Thank you so much! Another one ticked from the bucket list! Sylvie
Ok, so he does take a bit of time to get the concert going, you have 20 minutes from time of concert until it actually starts...but just forget about that, from lhe minutes the lights flick off until they go on again, this is the concert for any and all Phil Collins fans. Simply amazing! Genesis albums, Invisible touch, all his classics are played and maybe even some special moments you might not expect. THe band is good, his son who is 17 and playing the drums - outstanding. Is it strange that Phil sings from a chair at centre stage, well yes. Does it hurt the performance or take away from the price of a ticket - Not at All and Phil will recognize that fromt the beginning to the end. His body is fading, but his sout, his mind and this conertt can’t be missed and will be appreciated if you go to the concert. My personal bucket list of concerts is now complete! Thanks ticket master and PHil Collins!
I am so happy that I could buy the ticket at the presale on line. It was a fantastic night seeing my legend idol and listening to my favourite songs. I wish Phil good health and good luck.
Phil is amazing! Such a good does not disappoint. I would love to go again.
Phil and the band rocked Toronto! What an amazing show from start to finish. They played all the top sons and the crowd was into it from the start. Interacted with the crowd, told some stories and rocked the place.
Great performance by Phil and the band. His walking may be impaired but his voice is still excellent. All the hits performed. Performances with his son were great. Thanks for the memories Phil.
Best concert of my life! Phil sounds so good and his band is incredible.
