Here’s where it gets tricky. Robbie is famous for his huge, theatrical encores. He’ll disappear, the lights will go dark, and everyone starts screaming. Then he comes back for “Let Me Entertain You.”
If you’re watching the clock, don’t rush for the exit the second he leaves the stage. That encore can add another 15 to 20 minutes of pure, sweaty joy. Count on it.
This is the equivalent of thinking the movie is over, then sitting through the end-credits scene. You don’t want to miss the best bit because you were checking your watch like a nervous parent.
A Real-Life Example: My Cousin’s Close Call
My cousin Sarah went to see him in Manchester last year. She had the last train at 11:10 PM burned into her brain. She spent the whole last song loading her handbag and edging toward the aisle.
Robbie launched into “Rock DJ,” and she missed the entire shirtless finale because she was already in the lobby. She saw the encore on someone’s shaky phone video. Don’t be Sarah. Check the train times before the gig.
Most big venues actually publish the finish time specifically so you can plan your journey. Use that information like a pro. It’s your permission slip to relax entirely.
