He's also been in Cologne that day for a radio interview

to Amsterdam (again!) to appear on the "Paul de Leeuw Show". Next stops then will be
25th February Spain and 26th February Belgium.
However, Rob will be appearing at some festivals this summer so you might be able
to get a ticket for those...

Robbie's performance with Tom Jones
was one of the best at the Brit Awards (even though Rob didn't get an award himself) on Monday.
But he admitted he was annoyed at the lack of women's underwear thrown on stage
during their medley of songs from The Full Monty movie. He said: "I was expecting loads of knickers

I guess, that's
what we've all been waiting for, haven't we?
