You know, and obviously people, loads of people are into it, but it isn't the... it just doesn't have the same resonance, you know, in the way that something like Friends, Friends was massive, you know, or there was a show in the UK called Only Fools and Horses, which is without doubt the biggest British sitcom of all time.

I'm used to doing certain rooms in kind of, you know, in the UK and Australia and Europe, but... Big rooms.
Yeah, but still, you know, it's still that thing of like doing kind of, you know, a 500-seater, a 1,000-seater is still wild and so exciting.
And yet nobody, well, that's it. But you've got to, you know what I mean?

So... And the electricity.
We did a gig in Detroit last time I was there.
As an American, you have to find it. You have to understand what, what does Peckham mean? Like, how does it fit here? You know? So it's, I don't know that it's, it's, it's an interesting thing for Robbie Williams, but then he does like stadiums in the UK. He's so big that he probably just was like, I'll be a bit fun. Bit of a laugh.

It was like a 400-seater.
And, oh, my God.
But the audience, it was just...
it was so electric in a way that British audiences can be kind of quite tough to kind of, you know, sort of fold the arms and you sort of know you've got them if they're kind of the tits hang free.
But I, I've always had, whether because some Americans have found me out and they're excited that I'm there, but I've always noticed the audiences more than meeting me halfway and kind of, they've seen loads of my stuff on YouTube or Netflix and,
So I'm amazed at how much they kind of know and they kind of get me.
I guess it would be a bit like, I don't know, Michael Shea or Michelle Wolfe doing gigs in London.
A lion would be funny because the look of fear in the audience. Do you know what I mean? But then when the lion starts doing ballads, that must be really bewildering.
