Robbie Williams has set the rumour mill running that he’s planning a surprise set at Glastonbury.
The Rock DJ hitmaker shared a picture of a new plaque unveiled to commemorate the wild time he spent partying with Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher at Worthy Farm in 1995.
The plaque posted toWilliams’ Instagram page reads: “Robbie Williams entered this area without accreditation, authorisation or alignment with prevailing taste. His presence was uninvited, unofficial and ultimately inevitable.”
He captioned the post: “30 YEARS LATER ... (detective emoji).”
Williams and Gallagher were once the best of friends in 1995 after the former quit Take That and spent a weekend of soul-searching together at Glastonbury in Somerset, southwest England.
However, that didn’t last long after Gallagher’s brother and bitter rival Noel Gallagher called the Let Me Entertain You hitmaker “the fat dancer from Take That”.

Williams soon got his own back and sent a wreath to the Oasis brothers after his concerts in 2003 at Knebworth, Hertfordshire beat their record by selling out three shows in a row.
A few years later, Liam Gallagher started dating Nicole Appleton – who was Williams’ ex-girlfriend – and during an appearance at the Brit Awards in 2000, Williams offered to fight the Don’t Look Back In Anger singer for £100,000 ($230,000).
