Ok prog theory...

So basically,

What if Bill Bruford stole Phil Collins' dungarees and began wearing them on stage. As a crafty way of covering up his scandalous robbery, he disguised the dungarees as his own by painting a B for Bill (or Bruford) on the front.

Phil Collins would not give up. He missed his dungarees. He needed them. He longed for the material against his skin. He decided to hire Bruford for the 1976 Genesis Trick of the Tail tour in order to communicate with the ex-crimson drummer and barter for HIS dungarees.

Sadly for Phil, he was unsuccessful in returning the item of clothing to his rightful hands. He did however manage to stop Bill from wearing them live as long as Phil shaved his beard. (I believe Bill Bruford developed a hatred of beards after Tony Kaye left yes. Notice that when Jon Anderson started growing his facial hair, Bruford was nowhere to be seen.) This could explain why he didn't wear his signature dungarees in the 1981 reformation of Crimson!

Hiya Tumblr 👋

I hope you still remember me! Sorry I haven't posted here in a while (not that you really care); I've been very busy. I'm afraid this is probably the end of the road with Tumblr and myself, partially due to business, but mainly because my phone has been running out of space at an alarming rate and I need to delete loads of shit 😂 (Yes I use mobile Tumblr shut up)

I've enjoyed being around here and meeting people so thought I'd say a larger, blanket goodbye to everyone I've spoken to here. Thanks a lot for the laughs guys!

Bye👋

(I may well come back on my computer every now and then so we'll see...)

Tagged - Bingo

I will list the ones I can say yes to:

Own a band tee.

Made a mixtape.

Have a crush on an artist.

Like rock and roll.

Own a vinyl record.

Met an artist or a band.

Been to a festival.

Own concert memorabilia.

Backstage at a show.

Own a CD.

Dedicated a song - does this have to be in the radio or what? Can it be anywhere? Tried to dedicate a song of the radio once but never got through. I did dedicate a song I sang at karaoke one night though.

Like disco music. *** Almost all of it

Like blues music. *** Almost all of it.

Like pop music. *** A lot of it, but not all of it.

Like country music. *** Some of it.

Own an iPod. *** (Yes - but I never could use it cause the battery was dead and when I went to replace it they said it would be cheaper to buy a new one but I think they were only talking about a cheaper one so I should have just gotten the new battery. I ended up doing neither. But I still have it somewhere, so I technically still own one, lol.)

Hate a band everyone loves. *** Hate is a strong word, lol. I very much dislike a band that a lot of people love/like, but not everyone in the universe loves/likes them, lol.

Like a band everyone hates. *** I like a band that a lot of people hate/dislike but not everyone in the world hates/dislikes them, lol.

Play a musical instrument. *** I mean, everyone can play the sticks or the maracas/shakers, so ... does that even count? I can play some mean sticks and shake some marakas real good.

Definite NO:

*** Kissed a rockstar - No. Not a star. Kissed a guy who played rock and roll? Yes. Kissed a guy who rocks? Yes.

Own a guitar pick from an artist.

Travelled to another country to see an artist or band.

Have a tattoo to honor a band or artist.

Thanks so much for the tag @boilmynoodles! Sorry it took me so long!

Notes:

Front row - idk if it counts because it was a standing gig, but I stood at the front when I saw Kingfish Ingram live in Birmingham in '22

Hate band everyone loves - I absolutely hate Prince. Just can't stand him at all unfortunately. Also Elton John, but a tiny bit less so. I also struggle with post-Peter Green Fleetwood Mac (they're pretty cool sometimes though)

Play an instrument - Guitar, keyboards and a mountain dulcimer someone was throwing out 😂

Met an artist or band - I met 7-time world snooker champion turned ambient musician, Steve Davis at the bar after he supported Steve Hillage in '23. Also met Nick Harper after a show in Birmingham later that year.

I had an iPod Nano when I was younger. Idk if that counts because it's broken now :'(

Own concert memorabilia - Well sort of. I nicked the gig poster from the venue door after the Nick Harper gig...

Ant Philips has spoken...

Happy new year 🎊🎊 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣4️⃣

Apparently, this one isn't as big in other countries? Huge in the UK. Love it.

🎄 Send these trees to ten people you wish to have a good holiday and a happy new years!🎄

Happy Christmas (and other) everyone! 🎄

Okay why the fuck does Anthony Philips follow me on Instagram?

[severalpossiblemusiks]

I mean I wouldn’t complain at all.

[probably-not-mig]

I for one certainly am not!

Though I honestly can't tell if this is a real or not. I've followed him for a while and he seems legit...

Hiya Tumblr. Been fucking busy with everything in life for the last few weeks. I'll catch up on tag games etc in a little while. Until then, have a seriously underrated ABBA track

[probably-not-mig]

Guy Fawkes night is so fucking insane. Catholic tries to revolt against the CofE monarchy, so in return they burn effigies of him on bonfires annually for the next 400 years as a celebration. Wtf. Absolutely insane.

The fireworks are cool though...
