Former Genesis drummer Phil Collins is sick of getting beat-up by critics.  Collins, who has been unable to play drums for several months due to problems with his hands, underwent neck surgery in March with the hope he could get behind the kit again. (story) That's not the only thing getting Collins down.  He tells Rolling Stone that he is so fed up with critics, sayig, 'All my life I've put out music and people have criticised it.  Why keep doing that? I don't need the money.' Going Back, a collection of covers of Motown songs Collins loves, due out in the fall could be the last album he releases, saying, 'In the future I think I'll write songs in my basement and never play for anybody.'
