  1. It looks like Robbie will add Venezuela to his latin American tour that will take place in october this same year where he'll promote his latest album: Intensive Care. Negociation for his visit to that country were fighten by the three most important entertainment network (Evenpro, Solid Show and Emporio). Finally the negociation ended signing with OidosSucios.Com to bring the artist to Caracas. This tour will also visit Argentina, Brazil and Chile. thanks to fan-sites.org/robbie-williams/indexx.htm spread the love Robbie, spread the love.
  2. I have got used to finding my way around it now :D - it has taken me 6 mnths of practise :rolleyes:
  3. oh yes, he has changed the title. Much better too. Shows he has at least followed a bit of Robbie. Listening to Ghosts I suspect. Tite changed same old usual c**p inside :wacko:
  4. I cannot understand about the video not being played on the music channels either, unless rw.com want people to download it off his site. It does say in the text that this is the new direction Robbie wants to take. So maybe it will not be on The Box etc. If it is going to appear on the music channels they usually add the new vids on the Friday. We will have to keep our eyes glued on 12th. :cry:
  5. yeap Susie I feel like ruffling his hair up a bit. But I guess we should not moan, it could be alot worse. At least he has hair to ruffle :lol: http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/tvpromotion0102/2002/radio%20clyde/normal_10.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/tvpromotion0102/2002/radio%20clyde/3.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/tvpromotion0102/2002/radio%20clyde/4.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/tvpromotion0102/2002/radio%20clyde/6.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/tvpromotion0102/2002/radio%20clyde/9.jpg thanks to fansupreme
  6. I prefer the single version to the album one. I must admit on Intensive Care it comes quite low on my choice of songs to listen to. I have to say though that hearing it with the video, it has changed my opinion. I actually love the song. A very high quality video, fantastic idea's and graphics, but I am not sure about the subject matter, think Robbie will get a bit of stick. Well, we know what he is like controversy, controversy and controversy.
  7. not yet Jupiter, I have been checking the googles :wacko: You know I found out today that Take That have a 5th mike on stage all the time, left standing their empty just incase Robbie turns up. I suspect also it gives the audience a sentimental and atmospheric reason too. As they say "Thats showbiz" and TT do it very well.
  8. Congrats :cheer: well done
  9. I wonder why they pulled it Scotty. Maybe there will air it on the Friday. Glad to see you got back Susie from the Sin Sin Sin place. What ever were you up to :unsure: you were gone an awfully long time. :D
  10. I will ask my hubby, no need to cycle to Germany Twinkle. We would miss you while you are away. The cover is a bit disappointing isn't it? I would have put the real Robbie in the front and the 'guru' at the back. :D
  11. The Making of the T-Mobile Rob's ad debut. Enjoy :cheer: http://video.msn.com/v/en-gb/v.htm?g=beaf9...96-fe17da100075
  12. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/0dubai.jpg Robe and HSL Light Robbie Williams in Dubai 27-04-2006 Robbie Williams played Dubai’s largest to date at the Nad Al Sheba Racecourse in Dubai in front of 23,000 fans. Robbie Williams played Dubai’s largest to date at the Nad Al Sheba Racecourse in Dubai in front of 23,000 wildly enthusiastic music fans, who were also responsible for making it the fastest selling out show ever in the United Arab Emirates. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai1.jpg The entire production lighting rig, including 150 Robe moving lights, 60 points of rigging and all necessary power distribution was supplied by UK-based HSL. They air freighted 36 tonnes of equipment - with the help of Mapcargo - from their Blackburn base to Dubai, to meet the specification for Al Gurdon’s spectacular design. The lighting deal was put together by Robbie Williams’ production manager Wob Roberts, local production manager Peter Loh working for Midas Promotions and Robe Show Lighting’s International Sales Manager, Harry von den Stemmen. Sourcing enough lighting equipment locally for the show was proving challenging and costly. Von Den Stemmen was simultaneously alerted to an opportunity by both Tony Sawyer of V.V. & Sons, Robe’s UAE distributor, and Louis Teo of Lighting & Sound Singapore where Loh is based. He immediately went to HSL, one of the UK’s fastest growing lighting rental companies with a large inventory of Robe moving lights - where MD Simon Stuart jumped at the chance of quoting to service the Robbie Williams show. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai2.jpg Stuart comments, “The show was awesome! I’m extremely proud of the fact that we have worked alongside one of the best live production teams in the world and helped them produce such a great resultâ€Â. The show – artistically directed by Lee Lodge – amazed and enthralled everyone present with its high production values and characteristically superlative performance by Robbie. HSL’s crew chief and project manager was Mike Oates, who worked alongside hand picked crew of 9 HSL A-Team regulars. On site they liaised closely with Robbie Williams’ lighting crew chief Mark “Marky Mark†England, lighting director and show operator Richard Gorrod, site co-ordinator Tom Armstrong, Wob Roberts and Al Gurdon. Oates comments, “It was an absolutely brilliant experience and a great exercise in teamwork and good communicationâ€Â. Moving lights were absolutely integral to the lighting design. The rig was based around 8 structural ‘ribs’ – tall, hinged architectural set pieces originating from the “Intensive Care†album launch show at Berlin Veldorome in October, arranged in a gentle upstage curve. Designed by set designer Ray Winkler and constructed by Brilliant, each is edged with 288 Saco LED lights, and they also contain 48 Turbo Fuzz Lights that travel as part of the set. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai3.jpg Forty Eight Robe ColorSpot 1200AT fixtures – 6 per rib, were then added, along with 5 strobes per rib. On the floor were 10 ColorWash 1200ATs sitting on the risers in between the ribs, with eight right behind the ribs, sitting on cases and shining through them. More ColorWash 1200ATs were used to up-light the set drape. Rigged onto the sides of the offstage PA towers were five Robe ColorSpot 1200ATs and five Moles, with another 5 blinders on the onstage PA towers. On a horseshoe shaped rear truss that followed the line of the ribs were another 16 ColorWash 1200ATs, plus four rigged above the central LED screen. Another two per side were hung off two individual front trusses, together with 3 Moles a side. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai4.jpg Under the set grill were twenty-four Robe ColorSpot 575ATs - their smaller size making them ideal for the space - shining upwards through the grills, along with strobes and 8-lites. On the catwalk thrust around the floor were 60 Birdies, along with an additional 24 PARs, also utilised as up-lighters through the grills. The moving lights were used for a whole variety of effects from tight pencil beam matrix patterns to colourful washes to the creation of enveloping walls of colour, and also for profiling Robbie in the moodier moments. HSL supplied the six Robert Juliat Manon onstage follow Spots, with the four FOH ones sourced locally from rental company Nemesis. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai5.jpg Richard Gorrod operated all the lights plus an EX1 digital media server from his Virtuoso console which tours with them. He commented “HSL have been fantastic, nothing has been too much trouble and the kit has been meticulously well preparedâ€Â. Oates adds, “The Robes were absolutely brilliant – they were transported half way round the world, came out of their crates and all worked first time. There’s really not many other fixtures as reliable as this!â€Â. The biggest challenge for everyone on site in Dubai was the short timescale in which they had to build the technical infrastructure. However this also galvanised everyone into action, firing up the “show must go on†spirit across all departments, who worked seamlessly together through some very long days and nights. The Dubai show was part of a series of 4 ‘warm ups’ by Robbie Williams (preceded by three shows in South Africa), all ahead of his massive European summer stadium tour that kicks off in June. This streamlined ‘rest of the world’ rig (bigger than a lot of people’s ‘A’ rigs) as seen in Dubai and South Africa, will be used for shows in Asia and other territories in the autumn. http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai6.jpg http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai7.jpg http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/dubai8.jpg http://www.zioshow.com/images/db/news/0dubai.jpg http://www.zioshow.com
  13. sorry about the download, there seems to be a problem with it. I will delete the link. Yes it is on TV and our UK TV too. :cheer: He is looking well 'fit' :wub: Robbie Williams stars in the latest Europe-wide advertising campaign for T-Mobile, in which the pop star promotes the phone network’s “Web‘n’Walk†mobile internet offering. The new ad, which will air in the UK, is the first time Williams has starred in a commercial that broadcasts across pan-European markets and continues the singer’s 18-month partnership with T-Mobile. http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/userpics/10793/normal_vlcsnap-129808.jpg Created by T-Mobile’s agency Saatchi & Saatchi, the spot is set in a hotel and features a woman who receives a text message from a friend and a link to a gossip website that announces Williams is staying in town. She realises that she is passing the hotel where he is staying and decides to walk inside for a chance meeting. As she walks through the lobby she looks around to see people donning lifelike Williams’ masks, but who are not actually him. After checking to see if she is at the correct location, she turns to walk out the door and bumps into Williams himself. The ad was filmed at The Lot Studio in Los Angeles and features some of Williams’ friends, including film director Vaughan Arnell who directed the commercial, the make-up artist who created the skin-peeling effect in his music video ‘Rock DJ’ and photographer Sean Gleasson who photographed the recent Unicef campaign. The ad will premiere in Germany on 2 May, in the UK on 19 May and in other markets across Europe later in the month. Television, print, online, outdoor and point of sale are included in the campaign. T-Mobile announced its partnership with Williams, in association with Sony Ericsson, last July. The deal included exclusive access to the singer’s pre-released mobile music content, video-live streaming and cinecasts of his Berlin concert in October. The German mobile network also launched a branded “Robbbie phoneâ€Â. Future offerings will include behind-the-scenes access to Williams’ upcoming European Tour, which kicks-off in Dublin on 9 June.
  14. T-Mobile advert pictures. http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/userpics/10793/vlcsnap-128991.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/userpics/10793/vlcsnap-129021.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/userpics/10793/vlcsnap-129944.jpg http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/userpics/10793/vlcsnap-129808.jpg with thanks to fansupreme. he looks as hot as hell in the last two pictures :wub:
  15. MK is about half an hour train ride or maybe an hour on the coach, pending traffic. But can you imagine keeping your hotel in London getting to the correct train station across town, travelling up, standing up all day and coming back late at night, it would be a nightmare for us so I cannot see them doing that option, even if they laid on the coaches. It has got to be something more special than MK. I am praying it is, I have done MK once and I don't like going to the same venue's twice. I like to experience new ones! it is a funny quirk I have LOL :cry:
  16. defo vote for RHCP. My son got tickets to see them in Coventry this summer. I think I must have given him the concert bug. He is going to see Robbie this year too, which will be a 2nd time for him. The last time he saw Robbie it was in New Zealand 2001. I remember it well, he asked me to book tickets online and I ended up booking tickets for him in Thailand :wacko: whats a couple of thousand miles between them.
  17. it does not sound like Milton Keynes does it, so Jupiter I am thinking like you are. Why would they wait and keep us waiting if it was MK. They could announce that tomorrow. It has to be a stadium or stadiums in the London area, Robbie's tour accountant, Tom Golseth tonight updated his blog on his website again. He said that we did not have to move hotels or flights. Bloody hell, he must be still getting alot of hits on his website to keep us updated with two blogs in one day :wacko:
  18. you are so right Jupiter LOL. I just didn't know if it was in the small print on my confirmation email. I was being lazy I just didn't want to go hunting in my 'saved' box. :wacko:
  19. Hello, I hope you don't mind me joining in your discussion. One thing I have always admired Will for is sticking up for what he wanted to do and produce the albums and songs he has done. He told the X factor bosses to get lost, he wanted to do it his way and and quite frankly he was so right, if Shayne does not have the guts to do what Will did then I see it as being quite a short career. I hope Shayne can break away from the strangle hold that Louis appears to have on him. He has the looks, he has the voice and the young girl appeal. It is at his feet if he follows his instincts and believes in himself and his own talent. Not sure if he is going to trust it though. Robbie has made an exceptional niche for himself and so has Will. I don't see Shayne at this point doing that, so I would say that Shayne won't be as successful unless he produces some more character and substance about him. Is it true that Will is looking at going into the cabaret circuit? I read it in the papers and you know what papers are like, I just wondered.
  20. do you know if I should have received an email from rw.com to inform me that my tickets had been sent. I didn't receive one. So at least there will be no ticket tracking for me! I must be the first one. Feel kind of special now! LOL
  21. can any Robbie Williams tickets be run of the mill Jupiter LOL. They are plain, no picture on them like the Berlin one, so glad I got one of those and kept them. with coloured inserts. With printed statement. I think you would call it normal tickets. My sister took them to work today to show everyone so I am working on excited memory.
  22. don't worry to much, Robbie is not a follower. So I doubt that he will put out aload of cheesy songs and especially ones with no meaning. Yikes I dread the thought if he did. He has been experimenting with this sound for well over a year now. Well, I heard some songs last year that sound very much like club mix and it did not sound like cheesy 'pop' songs to me. Robbe has more depth to him. Not my favoured choice of album, would have liked more songs from Stephen Duffy and more songs like Feel and Come Undone. So I am out on this at the moment but he has not disappointed me yet!
  23. I received my tickets today from rw.com for Dublin :cheer: It was so unexpected it took me a while to calm down LOL. At least I won't have the worry I had for Knebworth. Geez, I did not receive those until 3 days before the event. Talk about panic. The only thing is I hope I don't put the tickets away in a safe place and forget where I put them. :cry: I have done that before. Anyway, good luck everyone, hope you receive yours soon.
  24. 'Robbie WILL join us' GARY BARLOW has confirmed ROBBIE WILLIAMS will join TAKE THAT on tour – just as I told you. And I can also reveal it won’t be a one-off gig. I promised you ten days ago that Robbie would perform live with the boys at their Manchester homecoming. And, hot and sweaty off stage from their opening night in Newcastle on Sunday, Gary told me: “Robbie is doing more than one gig. “I don’t know which dates, but he has told MARK OWEN he is definitely coming back.†Robbie appeared as a hologram in Newcastle singing Could It Be Magic after he re-recorded his vocals. Gary added: “It was our idea to do the hologram and Robbie was well up for it. We worried people would be disappointed when Rob didn’t appear from behind the hologram, but it went down well.†The lads told me they enjoyed the first night so much they are planning a new album and a European tour next year. And JASON ORANGE revealed they want Robbie to collaborate on the CD. HOWARD DONALD, Gary, Mark and Jason have already written new tracks and want to release the material in time for Christmas. Jason said: “It would be great if Rob wrote with us. We let Gary write all the songs before and he walked away with all the money. “This time it’s going to be an equal split  as it should have been the last time around.†Robbie returns ... Williams will appear at gigs http://img309.imageshack.us/img309/548/cibm1tu.gif I heard the boys’ new single Today I’ve Lost You  written before the split in 1995  at the Newcastle gig and it was typical old school Take That. But Gary says the new album will have a fresh sound. He said: “After the tour we can put our full concentration into it. I want it to be released by Christmas. Another Christmas No1 would be perfect.†He added: “The opening night was fantastic. We did the right thing getting back together. If we are still enjoying it this much at the end of the tour we’ll be around for a few years yet.†Sounds like they really are Back For Good.
  25. I know it must be very worrying for you Twinkle. I really don't know what the best direction is to take for Robbie. I would love him to hold off for Wembley. But I don't think that is an option. Very tough decision making will be in progress this week I would think. We have got to hear soon.
