that was embarrasing to watch
almost as bad as seeing Peter Kay get the crowd to sing that song.
And was it just me, or did almost every band try and do a Freddie Mercury-esque crowd participation bit, and all fail miserably

Robbie Williams managed it
In fact, he got the audience to do his set for him.

I'm not a Robbie fan but I would've been pissed off with that.
You would want to hear him perform, not watch him with that smug grin on his face holding a mic into the crowd watching you singing his songs back at him.
I don't buy a CD of backing music so that I can sing the fucking songs, I want to hear the artist goddammit.
*clears throat*
sorry
