on stage robert turned away from his audiences "i had to! it was perceived as arrogance, but it was more to do with shyness. i couldn't face what we were doing and face an audience at the same time. also, four of the bands family members died within a two month stretch of time, and we were deeply affected by these deaths. at the same moment in 'the funeral party', everyone on stage went, gulp! anyway. i was probably obsessed with the idea of faith because i thought that if i found something to believe in. it would sort out all my other problems. and i didn't."
