Robbie Williams

[Blue in Munich]

Anyone else watching this? Coming across as a complete knob. Mrs BiM fancied seeing him but we baulked at over £200 per ticket & glad we did.

Now switched to Jools Holland.

Is the pre recorded Jools Holland?, at least Robbie is live!

As was Bryan Adams last year, but he was a damn sight better; got on with playing music rather than seeing how much swearing by proxy he could achieve.

Its just a bit of fun poking at the staid Beeb. Its well past the watershed and they asked him to tone it down.

If you've got that much of a problem with it don't take the gig & leave it to a grown up. :thup:

I'm quite enjoying it. That might say more about me than you though. Not the best singer out there but IMO one of the better entertainers.

Jools = rinky tinky 12 bar blues piano crap although he does have a few good acts on tonight.
Robbie has a drummer who is IN the pocket all night so that's where I'll be, I'll gladly bypass Robbie's bull to watch Karl in the pit any night. Besides Mr Williams is an excellent entertainer and I'm a closet fan 😉

This is all on mute whilst I listen to my own stuff!

Not on BBC Scotland so we have turned over to BBC Englandshire and he's pretty dire. Flat as a pancake.
At least we have The Bay City Rollers on STV.

Great entertainer and not a bad singer.
Watched ABC on Jools, they should leave well alone. Sadly unlike some of the 80's acts that can still sing, the lead singer, Martin something, is now struggling. His voice has sadly gone and should only be listened to on vinyl

And back to Jools with his house band destroying the Chaka Khan classic.

At someone's house last night so no tv control. Jools was on, full of smug old people. Painful. Funniest thing was seeing a gargantuan Chaka Khan force squeezed into a leather outfit that did not flatter in any way.

Gregory Porter and Seasick Steve were both class.

I imagine that there's hardly one single day goes by when the Robster doesn't pinch himself very very very hard indeed.

 

[Fish]

So he holds hands with the public and then uses an alcohol gel cleaner as he's touched the unwashed 😜

That was one heck of a inner Tube!

I don't think that it so much came off a hanger but was more likely sprayed on from an aerosol.

I mentioned to Mrs JD Thad had Chaka sneezed then it might have been carnage in the studio.

Gregory Porter and Seasick Steve were both class.

Yeah they're both usually pretty good live, it's Jools and his band I dislike, they've made a killing peddling that generic rubbish they do. It's just so lethargic and lacks any punch or energy.
I saw a local funk/soul band do Ain't Nobody the other night and they absolutely nailed it.

Apparently it's to be Rob Williams from now on. 'Robbie' was what he was told by the manager of Take That that he had to be as Robert wasn't showbiz enough.
