I call this page mind-boggling because it has been so hard to gather all of Robbie's accomplishments into one document. I know this page is by no means complete. I am still looking for any of the following:
If you have any of this stuff, help me out! I hope to return to this page and add more information, and style, at a later date...
Robbie TV Appearances - Apparently this person keeps a record of whenever one of Robbie's TV shows or guest appearances is going to run! I don't know how often this is updated or how complete it is, but it's up to date at the moment...
Here are a couple of great interviews with Robbie, collected from random spots on the web.

I set out to find all the bands that Robbie has been a member of or collaborated with. Then I found that that's a pretty daunting task: Robbie has not only been in numerous bands, he has also pitched in with others' projects wherever needed, either as a touring member, session musician, or guest. Since I am not on the scene or (even on Robbie's side of the country!), I'm very sorry if this list is incomplete or wrong. Please write to me and set me straight.
