  1. From: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/...ey-concert.html Ruck DJ Mass brawl during Robbie's Wembley concert BOOZED-UP thugs fought a terrifying pitched battle during a Robbie Williams concert at Wembley Stadium. Mayhem broke out when four threw kicks and punches on the covered playing area. It escalated when beer was thrown — and one man in a red T-shirt got battered while on the ground. A bald yob had his top ripped off as he rained blows on the floored victim. Concert-goers backed away from the 20-thug tear-up as Rock DJ star Robbie, 39, sang Sin Sin Sin near the end of Sunday’s London gig. Some women even joined in — but others tried to stop it. Security finally moved in but fans,who paid up to £300, said the ruck ruined the night. One, called Charlie, tweeted: “Wembley security is so s**t would think twice about going again.” In April, Millwall fans rioted at a Wembley FA Cup semi-final. GJQ9UDZ4JBM :cry: :cry:

  13. My ears were ringing too Jups after the concert for quite some time but they are ok now. Hopefully it'll go soon for you too.
  14. I had a great time yesterday at Wembley, really enjoyed seeing Robbie again. We got into the stadium around half five and it was packed already, spent far too long in McDonalds! My plans to head to the right hand side of the stage as advised to completely went out the window as we couldn’t get anywhere near on that side with a decent enough view other than standing. I wasn’t feeling that great yesterday :( so didn’t want to stand for 5 hours solid. Most of the lower tier, all but a few blocks were available for people that had pitch standing tickets so it was nice to have that option. We had seats just a few rows up on the left side, would of liked to of been nearer the stage but didn’t have a bad view really. Scott Mills from Radio One was the DJ for the night, he was really good, got the crowd bouncing up and down. :w00t: Olly was great and I liked his singing, definitely a lot of his fans there too. The build up to Robbie coming on stage was quite something, such a great atmosphere, when his name was mentioned which was quite a few times, everyone went mental. Robbie appeared just before 9pm from the top of the stage :wub: Mr Sparkle was kinda of disowning me at this point as I got a little bit excited :lol: Robbie did his usual strutting around before getting into LMEY. I love that song, such a great concert opener and always gets the crowd going from the start to finish. I’m not sure if the set list is the same for every night of the tour, I avoided reading the reviews as much as possible so only had an idea of a few of the songs that he was going to perform. Given the choice I would of preferred the set list from the O2 shows. There’s at least 5, possibly 6 songs I wouldn’t of added to the list from last night, but that’s just personal choice I guess and he can’t please everyone can he. Performance wise, he never fails, always the great entertainer and that’s what I love about him. I can’t ever imagine not going to any of his future concerts. The sound in the stadium last night wasn’t that great in my opinion for some of the songs but that could be down to where I was standing and not Robbie, I dunno. One of the funny moments of the night was the Stoke sit down that he got everyone doing, said it didn’t work so well at Manchester ^_^ . Found a clip of it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0wbgU2mmMc Singing She’s the One and Angels always gets to me, I don’t know many artists that can walk off the stage and have the whole stadium singing angels from start to finish on their own. All in all, I had a fantastic night and would love to have the opportunity to see him again one day. I just hope he doesn’t leave it as long a gap as the last tour in 2006. Btw…….I heard rumours from local radio that TT were going to appear, they didn’t last night but it wouldn’t surprise me if they joined Robbie for a song on one of the Wembley nights.
  15. Tess :cheer: :cheer: hellooooooooooooooo did you enjoy the concert last night? @ Jups........... :drink: waiting for the rest of your review, I'm about to post mine.
  16. From: http://www.mtv.co.uk/news/robbie-williams/...w-justin-bieber REVIEW: Robbie & pal Olly Murs 'Take The Crown' to Wembley Stadium... 11:05, Sunday, 30 June 2013 For those who thought that getting married and becoming a father for the first time would have tamed Robbie Williams, think again! The former Take That star is back on the road in support of his ninth studio album Take The Crown - his first set of live solo shows since 2006 - with Robbie showing no signs of slowing down as he took over Wembley Stadium last night (June 29), bring pal Olly Murs along for the ride. With Olly powering his way through a stellar set, including hit singles Heart Skips A Beat and Troublemaker, the stage - complete with a huge impression of Williams' face - was set for what promised to be a memorable night of entertainment… http://www.mtv.co.uk/files/imagecache/inline/2013/06/30/170577137_1.jpg Feeling: After an energetic performance from the Troublemaker himself Olly Murs, Wembley Stadium was ready and waiting for Robbie. Murs had already done a great job in getting the crowd excited for his 'idol' - with the very mention of Williams' name sending the audience into a frenzy. Then, low and behold, Robbie made his grand entrance - standing on top of a giant model of his own head and launching himself off to sing Let Me Entertain You. And entertain he did, with the star exclaiming: "I'm Robbie f**king Williams and your Wembley and tonight, I own your ass". Screams then erupted around the stadium, with the crowd putty in Robbie's hands, as he kicked off his epic show. Look: Surrounded by busts of himself, Robbie's stage attire replicated that of a typical showman, donning a black sequinned blazer and cane for the first half of the concert, before swapping it for a glitzy, gold jacket to finish off his stint on stage. Streamers, glitter and balloons also played a part in the elaborate show, with Robbie acting as the perfect ringmaster. Tunes: Robbie combined old favourites such as Come Undone, Kids, Strong, Rock DJ and Take That track Everything Changes, with songs from his Take The Crown LP - including No.1 single Candy. He also performed acoustic versions of Millennium, Better Man and Sexed Up while classics Feel, She's The One and Angels were part of the encore to wrap Robbie's set. Specials guests: While his Take That bandmates were absent for the night's proceedings, it seems Robbie has a new wingman in the form of Olly Murs. After getting the crowd going with his tight trousers, Robbie welcomed fellow cheeky chappy Olly back on stage for a rendition of Kids. Kylie Minogue and her hotpants may have been absent, but Robbie and Murs had great chemistry on stage - with Olly even planting a kiss on Williams' cheek at one point. We love a good bromance! Banter: Where do we start! From passing on his pop crown to Olly during a quick version of Take That song Never Forget, to having a dig at Justin Bieber, Robbie was on fine form. Speaking of Biebs, Williams joked: "Someday, this will all be Justin Bieber's dream... I don't think so! He's a good singer and he's got a lovely haircut... I should shut up now before I get into too much trouble." However, Robbie did anything but shut up, even making reference to this weekend's Glastonbury Festival, stating: "F**k Glasto, this is where it's at!" Sweat Factor: By the end of Let Me Entertain You, Robbie had already broken out in a sweat, with the crowd feeling the heat as Wembley basked in some rather unlikely sunshine thanks to the unpredictable British weather. Temperatures also reached boiling point as Robbie and Olly showed off their hip-swinging moves - sending the huge amounts of women wild. http://www.mtv.co.uk/files/imagecache/inline/2013/06/30/170577134.jpg Summary: Robbie proved what a true showman he is, well and truly taking back the pop crown with outstanding production, impressive visuals and a set list boasting of hit song after hit song. Robbie took a risk by performing acoustic versions of some well-known classics, but it was nice to see a more mellow side to Williams, but there was still plenty of room for more hip-thrusting and dad dancing - which also went down a treat with the crowd. They hung on to his every word and staying true to his earlier statement, he truly 'owned' Wembley. In the words of Robbie himself: "I was famous in the 90s and I still sell Wembley", and we're sure he'll still be entertaining you, us and the world for many years to come.
