The delicate state of health of Phil Collins, was important in the decision of the band to retire from music, Collins carries health problems that keep him in a fragile and deteriorated condition. The artist, who has back problems, has been replaced on drums by his son, Nick Collins20 years old.
“This is a very special night”Collins said. “It’s the last stop on our tour and it’s the last show for Genesis. It’s hard for us to believe they came to see us.”he pointed.
“I guess after tonight we’re all going to have to get real jobs,” Collins joked at the end of this concert, which was scheduled for late last year.
It should be remembered that Phil Collins’ health problems began in 2007, as part of the Genesis reunion tour, when he ended up with a dislocated vertebra in his neck. This led to nerve damage in his hands, forcing him to give up drumming. Added to this was a domestic accident in 2017.
In addition, in the final concert he was peter gabrielwho had not been part of the band since 1982.
