06 Oct 2000 - Reading, UK: Rivermead

My first ever Robbie Show which was a present for my 18th Birthday. I always loved Robbie from his Take That days and being dropped off outside Reading Rivermead ready for the evenings performance i was exited and also unaware 2what was in store. All of a sudden i was inside and found myself in the front row and in a state of shock a warm feeling inside that something very special was going to happen that night. Then the man himself was on stage larger than life singing old before i die, Angels and let me entertain you encouraging us all to bounce and then the feeling was overwhelming of being part of this special concert and begining of Robbie's Tour. When Robbie talked about the England Match score for the next day we were cheering singing England England and then singing along to Kids and Rock Dj....Robbie with the floorshow, Kicking with ya Torso. Wave your hands if your not with the Man,,,can i kick it...yes you can! Robbie certainly rocked Reading that night. So many memories from a night i had dreamed of since the start of Take That when i was 8 and now at 18 i was living the dream. My camera had such a workout that night and the pictures i have are memories i will treasure forever and this one show was the start of a concert going Robbie and Take That Fan who is still living that dream to this day. I have been to every Robbie Tour since....and more than twice on the same tour each time and little did i know back then i would repeat this dream all again with front Row at Knebworth park twice yrs later. Thank you Robbie for creating such great songs and lyrics that make us feel energetic and happy and really mean something to each of us in their own special way. I cannot wait for the new album and new songs to enhance all our lives greatly like you do so well. Love Lisa xxxx
