It's interesting moment when we don't have a new album but we're waiting for an interesting setlist and stage from Robbie this time.

Yes, we have a chance on it :)

Btw, you do know there is always music what played before concerts.

Here is one of U2's pre-show tracklist (~30 songs):

October 7, 2023
“Atomic” – Blondie / “Let’s Dance” – David Bowie / “Staying Alive” – Bee Gees / “Burning Down the House” – Talking Heads / “Rolling in the Deep” – Adele / “Praise You” – Fatboy Slim / “Valerie” – Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse / “Never Gonna Give You Up” – Rick Astley / “Kiss” – Prince and the Revolution / “Genius of Love” – Tom Tom Club / “Hella Good” – No Doubt / “Another One Bites the Dust” – Queen / “Another Brick in the Wall” – Pink Floyd / “Drive My Car” – The Beatles / “Don’t You Want Me” – The Human League / “Le Freak” – Chic / “Psycho Killer” – Talking Heads / “War” – Edwin Starr / “Funkytown” – Lipps Inc. / “Groove is in the Heart” – Deee-Lite / “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)” – Eurythmics / “Just Can’t Get Enough” – Depeche Mode / “Blue Monday” – New Order / “Rock the Casbah” – The Clash / “Video Killed the Radio Star” – Buggles / “Cars” – Gary Numan / “Satisfaction” – The Rolling Stones / “Living on a Prayer” – Bon Jovi / “Wonderwall” – Oasis / “Nothing Compares 2 U” – Sinead O’Connor / “Also Sprach Zarathustra” – Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra / “Viva Las Vegas” – Elvis / “Teenage Kicks” – Undertones / “Call Me” – Blondie / “Viva La Vida” – Coldplay / “Love Will Tear Us Apart” – Joy Division (Cuts Off…)

Had a long flight yesterday and decided to prepare my own list :)

Each 5 songs there could be a reference song to RW, I think it would a very nice touch for spreading more his music each evening.

But comparing to U2 list I've added the modern artists and hits too: I think it's important to have a connection with Robbie's younger audience.

I always like the the combination of Walk on the wild side with the people setting in singing the dup-da- dup like on the Close Encounter tour

  <sup>Hail Keanu,
  So what I learned —
The answer from my post about whether any good deed can truly be free from ego was, in short:
No.
But — that’s okay.
And do it anyway.
So I will.
  I learned so much from my comment section.
Bless you all.
  
  Anyway —
Today’s Inkling:
  Let’s come up with the tracklist for the “I Want to Bonk You” mixtape together.
  
  Here’s my starter suggestions:
  Sexual Healing — Marvin Gaye
I Wanna Be Your Lover — Prince
I Feel Love — Donna Summer
Relax — Frankie Goes to Hollywood
Ecstasy (When You Lay Down Next to Me) — Barry White
No Diggity — Blackstreet
Let’s Get It On — Marvin Gaye
f*** the Pain Away — Peaches
Sex Machine — James Brown
Last Nite — The Strokes
Chariots of Fire — Vangelis
  (Fred Again suggested “Chariots of Fire,” by the way. 🎩)
  
  OK. Over to you:
  Horny songs only.
Zero dignity.
Maximum passion.
Or just full ridiculousness.
(Preferably both.)
  
  Another question I’m pondering today:
  If a bad person successfully pretends to be a good person 100% of the time...
Are they actually a good person?
  Discuss.
  
  Oh, and by the way —
how funny is the word “Bonk”?
Truly underrated.
  Namaste FFS.
  ❤️

This makes for interesting reading. Bars closed at the Arena for the David Gray concert. People calling in to the gig he did in April said it was chaotic with fights breaking out in the audience, people continuously walking up & down the stairwells obviously going & coming from the bar , They said the people involved were not young people & seemed to be also off their heads on coke or something .

Robbie is lucky his gig is outdoors, last time I was Croke Park there were people fighting in the crowd also drunk but at least it was outdoors & you could get out of their way . Drink should not be allowed at these gigs imo, it ruins it for everyone else who have paid a lot of money to see the artist

https://www.msn.com/en-ie/entertainment/music/why-is-the-3arena-closing-their-bars-during-david-gray-s-gig-this-weekend/ar-AA1DU0FU

I also wonder when people have spent so much money on the gig, they would want to be so drunk that they can't remember any of it?

Hail Keanu
——Alert the media, I’m fine———
Bleugh, bleugh, bluegh.
An in-between day for me. Bridging the gap between excitement / stress / expectancy.
Nothing to do. My biggest luxury.
I’m not working. I’m just waiting.
Waiting to work.
Waiting for meetings to happen.
Waiting to sing.
Waiting for rehearsals.
Waiting to be needed in a popstar capacity.
That’s how my life goes.
Nothing, nothing, nothing...
then f***ING EVERYTHING...
MORE f***ING EVERYTHING...
OH SHIT...
TOOOOOOO MUCH...
and then... Nothing again.
Yes, my biggest luxury is Nothing.
That’s when I draw.
That’s when I think up ideas bigger than I ever thought possible for me when I was 12, 13, 19, 27, 28, 29, 30...
That’s when I call my management and say things like:
“Hey can we trademark ‘Softcore Enlightenment,’ download my subconscious and make it a streaming platform?”
That’s when I make plans to only eat steak and eggs every day until the tour.
Tour starts on May 31st.
I just had a chicken tikka masala, a Coke Zero, then a Twix, a Kit Kat, and some balsamic crisps. Garlic naan.
That’s when I Google Beyoncé’s ticket sales and see how I’m doing.
Pretty well, adjusting for aging inflation.
(Me, not her.)
That’s when I think of painting Gandhi in a Millwall shirt.
Or a unicorn on a mobility scooter.
That’s when I become puzzled about some random person’s success and realise I’m envious.
That’s when I think about how much I believed everyone hated me.
That’s when I wonder if they still do.
That’s when I see a photo of my wife and realise how deeply I love her —
(even if I just annoyed her on the phone).
That’s when I mull over the question:
“To wig or not?”
On that — I spoke to a well-known person who put me in touch with an epic wig maker.
He said:
“Don’t worry, she’s very discreet. She won’t tell a soul.”
I said:
“I’m not worried — I’ll tell the world.”
(Which is what I do most days on Instagram anyway)
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what the inside of a popstar’s buffering screen looks like.
If you need me, I’ll be in the nothing.
Drawing unicorns.
Waiting for everything. Again.
Question - if you could be militantly honest at a social event, what would you say?
Namaste FFS.
Rob ❤️ X

I very much doubt now that it will happen before the tour ( unless he releases a teaser on instagram ), the tour begins May 31st

I am guessing the theme of this upcoming tour will be Better Man related , I liked the intro for the Hyde Park gig, it was very cool with a great build-up which was very exciting so hopefully the Robbie/Kim team will bring something great for the fans.

Will we see recreations of some of the scenes from the movie in the stage graphics & how will his song selection fit into the show .

Ayda posted a video on her instagram from London last night , you could see Big Ben in the background. I take it the rehearsals have begun for the tour . It's all very exciting 😊
