Photo Session | 1991 ‘The three big boys have got silver studs, the two younger ones haven’t. When the three big boys aren’t letting you in, it’s hard. Jay thought I was a geek, he’s since told me. He was very flippant towards me. Howard was ver quiet. And Gary couldn’t understand why there were four other people with him. Gary was single minded back then, and bloody minded. He wasn’t a very sensitive soul, Gaz: he’s very black and white, there’s no sort of grey areas. And I didn’t like him for it. If somebody resents you being there, you resent them for that. But he did save me once. We were in a van going up to Scotland to do the Disney Club, after Nigel had been away for a couple of weeks. Nigel said something and from nowhere I just went “Oh fuck off, Nigel.” I was really scared. And Gaz went, “Oh, since you went away, Rob’s developed a sense of humour, Nige,” and it defused the situation. He saved me that day. He really did. He could have just left me out to die, but he didn’t.’ -Robbie Williams, You Know Me

Manchester | 1997 ‘I think that’s my ode to the Chili Peppers - to the great picture of them with their socks on their cocks. And I thought: just get naked- let’s see what happens. It was an encore. “Old Before I Die”, I think. I’m not playing the bass, it’s just there to hide my modesty. It was a very, very brave thing to do considering that my manhood isn’t that large. It wasn’t exactly shocking, but it was shocking enough for me. I remember reading afterwards, “So starved of publicity, Robbie Williams decides to take his clothes off”, and going “That’s not what I’m doing! I was just naked!’It felt liberating. And if I get myself in decent shape before I’m 40 I might appear naked on stage again.’ -Robbie Williams, You Know Me
