Robbie Williams Triumphs At Roundhouse ComebackOctober 21, 2009
Robbie Williams performed his first full live show in three years at The Roundhouse in London last night (October 20).
The opening night of the BBC's Electric Proms, the former Take That star was more at ease in front of the 3,000 strong crowd than his wide-eyed appearance on the X Factor earlier in the month. Kicking off with recent single 'Bodies' and 'Reality Killed The Video Star' opener 'Morning Sun', Robbie slowly eased into the set. He told the crowd: "It's a bit nerve wracking, my first gig for three years. Thank you for making me feel comfortable." With third song 'Come Undone', it was the Robbie of old as he gained swagger and stage presence. Backed by a 38 piece orchestra and producer Trevor Horn, he has plenty of support too. Robbie, of course, came under criticism for his X Factor performance on October 11 where he was visibly nervous. Joking to the crowd last night, he said: “You nearly made me cry then when I realised it wasn't the X Factor!” After rattling through crowd pleasers 'Angels', 'Millennium', 'No Regrets' he finished with a cover of the Buggles song 'Video Killed The Radio Star' – the inspiration for his album title and a nod to Trevor Horn who was in Buggles. The set-list was as follows:
