Welcome

Hello and Welcome! Glad you found me!

This site went live on 28th February 2009, and is here to serve as a supplement to my YouTube Channel. Lots more information and things, for the surprisingly large number of people out there who actually seem to be interested! 

The following comments from viewers of my videos kind of sum up what this YouTube experience means to me (and them) and they are amongst the most beautiful and amazing comments I have received during the past few years -

 

“At 2.40 I thought I would cry. You are AWESOME. Please teach me!!!” [Police Every Little Thing She Does]

“Man that was nothing but brilliance. I’m literally screaming hell yeah! Dude you rock!” [Dire Straits Sultans Of swing live]

“I find your non-ego approach inspiring” [Genesis Domino]

“I love your style, focus and concentration every time. Your attention to detail is something I strive for. You’re an inspiration to many” [Police (Another) Message]

“Wow! Wow! Wow! I’m totally blown away. I’m a huge Genesis fan and watching you drum is really exciting. The energy and passion is amazing!” [Genesis Cinema Show live]

“I’m making our drummer watch all your videos. Repeatedly. At gunpoint. Your Police work is awesome.” [Police So Lonely]

“I really appreciate your humility and class. That’s something many drummers lack.” [Genesis Domino]

“You can watch all the Genesis videos, but it is not until you see them presented the way that you have that you can fully grasp how intricate and complicated Phil’s drum patterns were. Once again, it’s a great thing that you do for Genesis fans.” [Genesis Dance On A Volcano live]

I have been nothing but humbled and incredulous at the reaction my videos have had from across the world from thousands and thousands of you. I never would have imagined that I would need to create my own website, to satisfy ‘demand’, as a result of that first video back in 2007! Even less could I have imagined that I would end up being the drummer in iGenesis, and international cyberspace Genesis Tribute band, all because of YouTube.

To all of you - Thank you.

Probably too many pages and too much content, but I don’t care - it’s my website!

 

As at March 2011 I have had some 1,015,000 views of my 93 videos, 65,000 views of my Channel, and thousands of comments. My videos seem to get over 1000 views a day. I spend hours dealing with comments and personal messages and requests - it is truly incredible. I get to deal with some pretty nasty people too, but that’s YouTube for you! Thankfully the nasty people are extremely rare. Anyway, I have had great fun doing all this, and I have every intention of carrying on for some time to come!

If you have any particular comments on this site, please send me a message on YouTube (I had to disable comments on this site due to the large amount of spam). I would welcome feedback on what you think of this site!

Thank you all for your incredible support! Hope you enjoy browsing the site!
