In almost two hours of show, it it touched musics of its more recent record, "Intesive Care", of 2005, beyond the main successes of its career. In accordance with the organization, the event in the Square of the Apotheosis congregated more than 20 a thousand people little. The presentation started promptly to 21h, to the sound of the subject of the film "Immediate Contacts of Third Degree". Soon after that, Williams appeared in palco to amend a sequence of hits, as "Radio", "Rock DJ" and "Tripping". Until almost the half of the show, good part of the public continued arriving at the place, while the English ironizava: "they look at there, still has behind people come to attend to me. They run, run ". During the night all, Robbie Williams provoked the public with phrases as "they are feeling me". To the living creature, it showed for the Brazilians its capacity to transit for distinct references, that pass for names as Elton Jonh and even though Frank Sinatra, mainly when the singer Jonny Wilkes went up to palco and it folloied it at a worthy moment of a great musical comedy of the Broadway. The two had also sung a version for the success of the 70 years "Staying Alive", of the Bee Gees. Boy band Thake That, of the which Williams was adolescent part when, was remembered in the show with a version of "Back Will be Good", greater success of the group. Huge, palco of turnê "Close Encounters" counts on one passarela that it advances in direction to the public, forming a species of "V" of approximately 20 meters for where Williams parades during the show.

Another "scene" of the singer was to constantly demonstrate revolt for being confused with the Robin actor Williams.

October 19, 200618 yr Author I read on Tom Golseth's Site a few weeks ago that the capacity for this one was 'only' 20,000. I thought that was a mistake as I thought he was playing a Stadium. Didn't realise it was a Square. Must have been quite an intimate gig by RW standards then. :D

October 21, 200618 yr Author I'm not sure about this. I read on Tom Golseth's Site weeks ago that the capacity was only to be 20,000. And as far as I know 20,000 people turned up. But I know that the Square holds about 40,000. Does that mean they deliberately only decided to sell 20,000 tickets? Can't think why. All very strange. :blink:
October 21, 200618 yr a Brazilian fan told me this: They put 40 000 but robbie doesn't have a lot of fans here... so only 20100 bought the tickets. It was rainnig a lot in rio de janeiro... and the people doesnt' like to go to concerts with rain. Looke at this It dosent meanm nothing for you., but for me it was the best scene that I've ever seen of ROBBIE i'm almost Crying here... He singed Girl From Ipanema.. I can not believe This is enough for me ROBBIE YOU ARE THE BEST I'm from Brazil... And I love Our contry... To speak the true, everybody inm brazil loves MExico, I'm not Kidding
