So a week or 2 ago I fulfilled a childhood dream and got to see Robbie Williams live in concert at the 02 Arena, Dublin.
And I have to say it was fantastic.
What made it great?
Not the amazing atmosphere, hilarious banter between Robbie and the crowd or even the 'dad dancing' but the fact that this was a completely stripped back show with no light shows or special effects on screens or anything.
And every penny/cent went towards Unicef and Childline, which I thought was a really great gesture from a music star and should hopefully inspire others across the globe to do the same thing.
In fact the Dublin gig alone made over €300,000 and considering this was a 3 gig tour, it's likely that the million mark was passed. In just 3 nights.
Imagine all of music's stars did this type of thing once a year? The difference it would make would be phenomenal.
Anyway here's a quick graphic I did to say thank you and serve as a nice souvenir to all of those involved- The promoters, organisers, Robbie and of course everyone who donated.
And if you haven't already, check out Rob's new video for 'Candy'.
