As the Not Dead Yet Tour approached, legendary drummer Phil Collins began to experience nerve problems in his hand that made drumming increasingly difficult. To address this problem, he enlisted his son Nic Collins to take over drumming duties for the tour from 2016 to 2019. During a tour stop in Houston, the father-son duo shared a memorable moment when Nic walked up to the piano after Phil introduced him to the audience.
Phil revealed to the audience that Nic had discovered a song from his debut solo album, You Know What I Mean, that Phil himself liked. In a playful exchange, Phil joked about the number of songs Nic liked, and Nic clarified: “Two songs… mainly just one”. They then delivered a soulful performance of the song, with Phil on vocals and Nic on piano.
The performance was warmly received by Phil Collins’ fans, who were happy to see him perform live despite his health issues. The video of the performance has been viewed over 2.7 million times and many viewers were touched by the father-son collaboration. Comments praised the emotional connection and Nic’s obvious musical talent. One viewer remarked: “Wonderful to see father and son together like this”, and others confirmed: “Nic Collins has inherited Phil’s musical talent”.
The tour also allowed Nic to showcase his diverse musical skills, especially on the drums. At the same show in Houston, Nic demonstrated his drumming skills in a duet with percussionist Richie Garcia, impressing even his father. When Nic joined Richie and Phil for a cajon performance, the group developed into a dynamic drum trio.
After the tour ended in 2019, Nic continued to support his father as a drummer on the Genesis tour from 2020 to 2022. He also joined Mike and the Mechanics, the band led by his father’s Genesis bandmate Mike Rutherford, and showcased his drumming skills with them. In 2022, Nic released his solo project “Better Strangers”, which offers a deeper look into his drumming skills. With a promising future ahead of him, Nic Collins is ready to further his musical career while continuing his father’s legacy.
If you spot these mysterious black dots in your kitchen, you had better know what they mean
Finding things in our houses that don’t seem to have a clear reason why is never very enjoyable.
I don’t know about you, but as soon as I see a mark on the wall that wasn’t there before or even the tiniest hint of an odd scent, I start to worry about whether it will get worse and whether it will ultimately cost me money to remedy.
I can therefore relate to an internet user who purportedly became alarmed when she noticed that black spots were mysteriously appearing in her kitchen.
It goes without saying that odd markings or inexplicable finds in the kitchen of all places can frequently raise concerns.
This is the room of your home where food is prepared, so naturally, you want to be completely in charge of everything that happens there.
However, one homeowner could not figure out the reason for a string of odd black dots she kept discovering.”Is there anyone who knows what these points could be?” She posted a question in the “WeLoveMrsHinch” Facebook page.
“They started off on the kitchen tiles and this morning they ended up on top of the PC we keep in the kitchen.”
Though the responses weren’t perhaps what she was hoping for, she was fortunate that other Facebook users were able to provide her with a conclusive response.
As you look over it, you’ll undoubtedly see a spider, someone commented on her post.
Another user said, “This time of year, spiders pooping everywhere happens a lot.”
Spiders “don’t leave solid droppings; instead, their droppings are thick and liquid,” resembling dark ink stains that frequently occur on walls and other surfaces, according to the Pest Guidance website.
According to the website, “their faeces look like splats or drips in the shades of black, brown, white, or grey.”
“Depending on the species, the color or type of feces varies, but you can generally anticipate dark splats or drips.”
“The combination of food and other waste materials released from the spider’s body is represented in these droppings.”
To be sure, I had no idea what spider droppings were. Did you?
