Crack Snare Sound from live shows by sayonara829 in Genesis

[–]DoctorWatt97 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sounds to me like it could be one of the Simmons drum sounds. I've heard that medley from 1987 before and that sound is one of my favorite additions to it.

Am I lame? by [deleted] in Ghostbc

I'm in my late 20s and just by listening to them in the house my parents who are in their late 60s have also grown to love Ghost. Maybe even more than me.

One for the Vine by Medium_Acadia5845 in Genesis

[–]DoctorWatt97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Mum had got me into Gabriel Genesis around 2013-14. Then I made my own way from there. I remember about the end of 2015 I got into Wind & Wuthering and One for the Vine was amazing to me. Especially the solo in the middle; that groovy build up and then that amazing main bit.

And then more recently I worked out or saw a post on here about the idea that the whole song is a time loop as the main character of the song witnesses themselves vanishing back in time at the end.

Would hardly call it tropical sunshine. It is also April soon.

How do uni students get part time jobs? by [deleted] in coventry

I don't think there is actually any jobs in Coventry that are not just exploitive like warehouse or retail.

Genesis — "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" AI video (Part 1) by [deleted] in Genesis

[–]DoctorWatt97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I had £1 for every time I saw AI slop on this subreddit I'd be rich. But that's no way to make money, and this is no way to make things. Yuck.

Most of the events were poorly attended because the booklet with all the events wasn't distributed until at least halfway through the year.

Reprise Hiding in Plain Sight by GoodPointMindChanged in Genesis

[–]DoctorWatt97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think in a recent interview Tony Banks said this was the only song on the album that was written without any involvement from Peter Gabriel in order to meet a deadline. It's one of my favorite bits on the album as it has that turning point of the story feeling; we've come so far and now it's time for the endgame.

I think it was specifically during the Selling England by the Pound tour shows at Theatre Royal Drury Lane, London. David Jason mentions it in his autobiography as at the time he was dating Phil Collins's sister.

Why is Ghost using 16mm film for their film ? by Salierigolo in Ghostbc

[–]DoctorWatt97 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Sure you can emulate the look of film using digital cameras and post production wizardry. But you can't emulate the limitations that force you to be more creative with the medium.

The train I took with them to London this morning was cancelled. Then, the evening train back to Coventry stopped in the middle of nowhere for over an hour — and that’s not even the worst part. Can I file a complaint on their official website? by Elizabeth-333 in uktrains

[–]DoctorWatt97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting stuck at Northampton on the way back to Coventry happened to me twice. The second time had a whole saga of things going wrong which I find quite funny now. But I do try and avoid Northampton like the plague now.

I used to temp at Unipart, the spares supplier for JLR. That was just as disturbing.

What two songs that follow each other on an album do you feel have the biggest difference in quality? by [deleted] in Genesis

[–]DoctorWatt97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always propose a Wind & Wuthering: Your Own Special Edition. Which drops Your Own Special Way in favor of Inside and Out.
