Phil Collins says that there is a possibility for a Genesis reunion down the road, as long as it involves his son Nicholas on drums.

"I wouldn't say there isn't not a possibility," he tells Rolling Stone when asked about another possible Genesis reunion. "Me, Mike [Rutherford] and Tony [Banks] are pretty close still. I can't imagine what it would be like if I didn't play the drums, but anything is possible."

Collins spoke to Banks and Rutherford when they saw his solo show in London last summer.

"They both were raving about Nic," says Collins. "Mike made the appropriate comment of, 'He just gets it. He just gets what is needed and what is required and why you're doing this for that song.' I thought that was a wonderful thing to say. He was 16 at that point. I think that, yeah, if we did anything I think it would have to be with Nic on drums because I don't think I'm capable of it. I think their opinion of Nic is high enough for them to take him onboard as part of the band."
