During his last solo tour, I think 2019 or early 2020 he entered the stage in a wheel chair or on a walking stick the best days, and get seated on a stool, and sung the whole concert seated. I guess he would do the same with Genesis
You might get lucky, now and then

Who's the guy standing next to him with the beard?  I'm sure I recognise him from somewhere...

People loved it. He sold out many additional shows. Being old is nothing to be ashamed of although it's hard to stand especially in a rock concert environment. And MK will be the same in 2022/2023.

 I went to one of his concert in 2019 in our local arena. He came in on a walking stick, 40000 people standing and applauding. He stayed seated the whole concert, but his voice was strong es ever. He clearly enjoyed the whole concert as did his fans.

This is indeed great IF the performance is good, hovewer when an old artist go on stage and barely able to perform, this looks like a boxer who stays on the ring for too long. The appearance is only second to performance!

Similar almost to MK in 2010 limping on to the stage and then taking his seat......I wonder if he will do this ever again??

Of course, if he still can sing and being for two hours or more seated singing, good for him! and for the enjoy of his fans.

I decided not to buy tickets for this Genesis reunion because part of the fun of attending their concerts was Phil playing drums, and he can't do it no more. His son is very good, even better than him, but it's Phil Collins playing drums what I want to see. And I saw it in 2007 in the last Genesis reunion, so, that's check on my list!

I totally get that reason for you. I guess you have your happy memories of Phil in better times....

Yes, Phil's dance with the tambourine in "I know what I like" is something to be miss now that "he can't dance"
