Robbie Williams in Sydney!
Finally, the expected Robbie Williams concert in Sydney! This was a very special event, Robbie came to Australia for the ARIA awards, and he used his stay in Australia to perform for a small audience of 1000 fans.
It was last Wednesday at 8pm at the Metro in George Street near Town Hall.
Robbie started off with his new single "Bodies". As always, his songs sound so much better live than on a studio-recorded track!!!
He came with some of his long standing band members like fellow guitarists Gary Nuttall (photos, left end) and Neil Taylor (photos, right end)!
I was standing about 10 metres from the stage, with about 7 people infront of me. Robbie was very relaxed and obviously very pumped to perform again. He joked about not remembering how to dance properly and forgetting lyrics. He showed us how he had all songs written down, just in case.
He sang: Bodies, Morning Sun, Feel, Come Undone, Rock DJ (Mixed with some RUDEBOX lyrics), Deceptacon, Starstruck, You Know Me, Won't Do That, Supreme, his cover of Human (originally by The Killers), and... Angels!!
"Won't do that" he sang to his girlfriend Ayda Field, who was standing at a balcony at the side of the stage.
