• Robbie William Quotes

  "‘I’m just going downstairs to stab myself – do you want a cup of tea?’ I said."Mirror: Robbie Williams: I wanted to stab myself during bad LSD trip (November 24, 2008)

  "It was at Shelleys (nightclub) where I had my first acid experience. We were in Golden Hill, in someone’s kitchen probably. I was given a tiny piece of paper to ingest. E’s were too expensive for the Potteries. £15 – who could afford that? There was a band called the Prodigy performing that night and I thought they were really good."Mirror: Robbie Williams: I wanted to stab myself during bad LSD trip (November 24, 2008)
