Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on March 25, 1947)

Happy Birthday, John Mayhew! As the rhythmic heartbeat behind Genesis during your tenure as their third drummer, you kept everyone on tempo—even when Peter Gabriel's costumes threatened to steal all attention. Your beats laid down a foundation that fans still air-drum along with today.

Though drummers often hide in shadows (or behind cymbals), we celebrate you stepping into another year of greatness and rhythmical wisdom. Here's hoping this birthday rocks harder than any drum solo you've ever nailed—may it be filled with laughter louder than Phil Collins' snare hits and joy more timeless than classic rock itself!
