His ordeal began with the back injury in 2009 after decades of pounding his kit caused vertebrae to crush his spinal cord.

"Sad. Didn't know drumming can cause injuries..."

Neither did I...53 years ago when I did my first on-stage gig. Now I can play better than ever (blues is the best) and I can do a five-set night with no problem.

But, like Collins, I can't load and set-up my drum "kit" without serious help from the bass player.

The best drummers I've ever seen have minimal kits.
