HUGE APPLAUSE Joe!!! - never saw this one before, and holy paradiddle batman... 14:57 of drummer heaven right here! I broke a sweat watching and listening to all those precise fills! :) Love that fat snare and those TAMA concert toms too! All I can say is that you know your craft brotha'!!! R-E-S-P-E-C-T ! ! ! Have a great weekend! :D
@SteveBDrums Thanks Steve - yeah this is one of my personal favorites for a lot of years. Thanks so much for checking it out. I think it's the best version that Genesis did of this song.
Assolutamente fantastico. Da rimanere a bocca aperta. Cercavo un tuo video per The battle of Epping Forrest senza trovarlo. Sono italiano pazzo perduto per i Genesis. Ora anche per te. Complimenti.
That was truly Amazing! I also have loved this version and have Never seen it played from a drummers perspective, and I also have tried to play along to it and Failed :-) Your fills were faultless, thank you for putting this on youtube for us all to see :-)
I'm at a loss for words... You had me at the first Floor Tom beat. My mouth hurts from smiling throughout the song and I actually clapped at the end of this video. What an absolutely spectacular, amazing, fantastic, tremendous job! In a perfect world, this would be the video with 300 million views! Beyond Excellent Performance!!!!!!!
@gweiss27 Wow - such a nice comment - I really appreciate those words. Receiving a comment like that make all this work worth the while. Thanks so much
@jkovert Good catch - this was to make it fit into 15 min limit at the time - I believe there is also another cut of a whole verse out - but I'm not sure you will notice that one.
Just. Amazing. I don't consider myself a music snob, but there aren't many times that I hear a song from a band that I se to just MISSED. You just made me a Genesis fan.
GREAT work on an amazing song... the fact that you love playing the drums to this tune really comes across - I love it! Phil was such a great musician during that whole period!
Simply amazing! But "Just another really long song"? I dont think so. This is one of the best Genesis songs of all time and you really did it justice. Thank you!
@Imperium321 Well you know how some people cant be bothered with a song that is longer than the standard 3:05 length. I'm glad you liked it. One of my favorites
Do you by any chance have a cover of the complete Supper's Ready and/or Los Endos? That would be really cool if you do post those if you got 'em. Also, I have a concept for the In The Cage Medley where you take every single instrumental portion Genesis has played over the past 30 years and combine them together: In The Cage, Colony of Slippermen, Afterglow, Apocalypse In 9/8 and one they did during the 2007 tour. Anyway, awesome job! I'm proud to have heard it! Rock on!
Worstcaseontario: Mirrored Niel Peart? High respect for Niel but this is purely Phil Collins writing in his drummer-only role for Genesis prior to taking on the duel vocal drum position. Again, no disrespect to Neil but I am sure even he would have a hardy laugh on that one.
I've watched this about 10 times to find all the faults I can ... 10.31 into the video you stop for a millisecond to wipe the sweat from your head on your T-shirt.....this is unforgivable when you should be concentrating on the song and also thinking about the next ...brilliant ...fantastic...awsome...amazing.....inspiring video to make, that fans like me enjoy seeing you perform in....so because of this I can only give this video 9.9999999 out of 10.....(excellent thanks)
@fnc6810 That's funny - I know the part - the sweat gets in your eyes and burns then you can't see and you have to play with your eyes shut for the rest of the song! I hate when that happens - So glad you enjoy this track - it's one of my favorites - Thanks again.
This is a GREAT version of The Cage Medley. Your drum is right on it. I know it so very well. I presume you play in a regular Genesis cover band, if not, GO for it.
amazing job, one of the most complex arangments out there. but i find that who ever the original drummer is for this kind of mirrored niel pearts style. just an opinion. but whether or not you agree with me on that, this song is amzing bro!! good job!!!
I know that piece of music almost as well as I know my own face and what you did was utterly phenomenal. That is the first time I've been able to watch a drummer play that entire track from start to finish.
I think your playing far exceeds that drum kit you played that on, and it'd have been even nicer if you had a couple of extra cymbals to help you out (I'd have bought them for you myself - you deserve it).
@Jez2008UK Wow - thanks so much for taking the time to write all of that. Those are the words that make me want to make more of these. Yes I could probably use a fe more cymbals and a new set as well. It was kind of my own version changed around over the years. So glad you enjoyed that. Thanks again
Wow man this is great! It's good to see someone still enjoys playing good music, and one question. Are you in a band? If so what type of music do you play?
Phil and Chester are such great musicians, as well as the rest of the band but what a great drum part. They must have ha so much fun playing it, as you have, of course. Great song!!!.
@chilingpai Thanks - I am glad you are getting good information from this video that will help you. I've been playing it since about 1982 or so. It really is a good workout. Thanks again
I don't know how many time my son & I have watched this video but I'm sure will watch it many more . You are an Awesome Drummer & Entertainer as well, LOVE all your videos but Genesis is my favorite Band of all times. thanks for sharing your talent with us all..
@ihatetoro What is really cool is that you and your son watch this together. That to me is the best compliment. I'm glad you are spending time with him and I'm flattered that you are watching me! Thanks again
Awesome! Best cover ever seen! I try to play along to this one, too - very dfficult... and I am far away from perfection. I think the album/old live version is much different from the excerpt they played during the "When in Rome" DVD I am using to fool along to ;-)
Though, I added this to my favorites! GENESIS forever! Keep up the great work, man!
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME.....I love this song and I love your drumming. I think even PC couln't do it better. I can see it in your face that you have much fun with it
Please keep posting your drummings here for us to enjoy..
A match up like this one again?... i would say never. There are few modern drummers that I like. They are much too loud and no soul. I gotta say that my favorite drummer is Jazz drummer Bill Stewart. And by the way man... you do bang those drums beautifully.
Nice job. Nice to see an original interpretation rather than a straight cover. Like the crossovers at 7:26 (I tend to play the hi-hat part one handed like Phil) - reminiscent of Mike Portnoy's hi-hat section in the middle of Dance of Eternity. Dude, you definitely need to get yourself a bit fat Wuhan china for sections @7:17, 8:22 and 10:08. It'd balance out the right hand side of your kit too ! Love the single headed toms as well - very Phil Collins -and the brushed aluminium finish on the kit.
@drsteve0487 Thanks so much - I guess there are many ways to play the same thing. Yes i do need a big china cymbal on the right side. Maybe I'll buy myself one for Christmas
@Chitoxin Yes you are right. Both of them really complimented each other. Too bad they are not playing anymore. How many more times do you think you will see a matchup like that?
@Chitoxin On the live versions, yes. But Phil is the originator of the drum parts. He once said on an interview that he felt sorry for Chester because he had to be him on stage!
That was simply awesome!! From one drummer to another you nailed it man. it is inspirational to watch you !! keep rocking!! I put a few covers up on youtube but nothing like this WoW!!
As a drummer myself of the last 20 years, and a massive Genesis fan, and Chester fan my jaw was on the floor watching this, as ive laways wondered how its done, years of trying to work it out through guessing. You have done this song to a tea, its spot on, i was in absoulote shock, ure one of the best drummers i have ever seen, You are brilliant :)
@hickorychick1 Wow - thanks for the comment. I kinda play it my own way though. A lot of it is the same and a lot of it is different but I think it kinda fits. It's also a combination of listening to two drummers and trying to pick out which one you want to play. I'm rally glad you liked this and I think I'm going to post a drum only version of it as well
That was awesome dude. Really enjoyed that. Brilliant video too. I love this medley,just brilliant. You done it proud. Defo checking out your other vids.
Fucking great job bud. Would it be fair to say this song was kicking your ass (stamina wise) right before Phil started to sing on the second part??? lol. It's understandable. I have two requests, "I cannot belive it's true" n "Easy Lover". I will for sure shed a few tears when Phil leaves this shitty world for a better life. Thanks
@cubscursed This one usualy does put me in a full sweat by the end, unless I have the fan going! I'll check out those songs - I do know them and will try to fit them in. Thanks
Very nice work! My favorite track along with the drum duet on Abacab - your interpretation while obviously different, still captured all the important points and was not obtrusive like so many other drummers. I kept saying to myself "Hows he going to attack this section?" and you had me smiling each time. Tasteful and enjoyable to watch - Thank you!
@escher2112 Thanks so much for that comment. I really appreciate it. Yes I have changed it around over the years and I'm glad I put a smile on your face!
That's a fab rendition. This has got to be one of the best tracks to drum to. I don't care much for the double bass stuff, I'd keep it simple and true to the original. Welll done mate!
This a great piece, and I love your drumming on it. This and your Behind the Lines I keep watching over and over. I'm not a drummer, am a guitar player but love rhythm and grooves, and so having a pining to be a drummer sort of. On In The Cage I like how that high tom (not sure if this would be correct term) gets hit on the and of three through that one section. That's a nice little ear tickler...
@fisherkingbat I think I know what you are talking about. I think that is in the original recording though so I didn't make it up. Thanks so much for taking the time to write a comment -
i like how you added your own style to the bass drum part.....if i recall correctly that should be from Three Sides Live...i grew up hearing that and somewhere in high school had the blessing of finding the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway album....i must say that is still the best medley they did.....how about Supper's Ready next....or Return of the Giant Hogweed....shouldn't be too hard if you can pull that off....
@pvtvitoguido Yes it was from three sides live and the bass drum kinda evolved over the almost 30 years I've been playing that song. It's so burned into my head at this point that it comes out exactly the same each time I play it. It is a lot of fun to play this song. i will have to practicve those other songs but they are really great songs as well. Thanks again
@gplaza Great - Was that you in those High School videos? If so then keep on playing and make it a part of your life. There should never be a time where your "drums are in storage" throughout your life - so save your money for a house!
That is one of the most entertaining 15 minutes ever! Absolute perfection. My favourite band and now one of my favourite youtube videos....Phil would be proud sir, great job :)
HUGE APPLAUSE Joe!!! - never saw this one before, and holy paradiddle batman... 14:57 of drummer heaven right here!

Fucking great job bud. Would it be fair to say this song was kicking your ass (stamina wise) right before Phil started to sing on the second part??? lol. It's understandable. I have two requests, "I cannot belive it's true" n "Easy Lover". I will for sure shed a few tears when Phil leaves this shitty world for a better life. Thanks

@cubscursed This one usualy does put me in a full sweat by the end, unless I have the fan going! I'll check out those songs - I do know them and will try to fit them in. Thanks

Very nice work! My favorite track along with the drum duet on Abacab - your interpretation while obviously different, still captured all the important points and was not obtrusive like so many other drummers. I kept saying to myself "Hows he going to attack this section?" and you had me smiling each time. Tasteful and enjoyable to watch - Thank you!

That's a fab rendition. This has got to be one of the best tracks to drum to. I don't care much for the double bass stuff, I'd keep it simple and true to the original. Welll done mate!

This a great piece, and I love your drumming on it. This and your Behind the Lines I keep watching over and over. I'm not a drummer, am a guitar player but love rhythm and grooves, and so having a pining to be a drummer sort of. On In The Cage I like how that high tom (not sure if this would be correct term) gets hit on the and of three through that one section. That's a nice little ear tickler...

@fisherkingbat I think I know what you are talking about. I think that is in the original recording though so I didn't make it up. Thanks so much for taking the time to write a comment -

i like how you added your own style to the bass drum part.....if i recall correctly that should be from Three Sides Live...i grew up hearing that and somewhere in high school had the blessing of finding the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway album....i must say that is still the best medley they did.....how about Supper's Ready next....or Return of the Giant Hogweed....shouldn't be too hard if you can pull that off....
pvtvitoguido 11 months ago
@pvtvitoguido Yes it was from three sides live and the bass drum kinda evolved over the almost 30 years I've been playing that song. It's so burned into my head at this point that it comes out exactly the same each time I play it. It is a lot of fun to play this song. i will have to practicve those other songs but they are really great songs as well. Thanks again

@gplaza Great - Was that you in those High School videos? If so then keep on playing and make it a part of your life. There should never be a time where your "drums are in storage" throughout your life - so save your money for a house!

@fcernig33 I know one of those slow verses towards the end was cut out because I had to fit it into 15 Min.
