doing a Robbie

to mask one's shaky live performance and/or unfamiliarity with the words of one's own songs by enlisting the crowd to sing instead, often for entire verses and choruses, in the manner perfected by Robbie Williams

Bono didn't seem himself when U2 played Glastonbury: he kept doing a Robbie and getting the crowd to help him out by singing on his behalf.

Canadian Bank Robbery

Where you rob a bank passing along a nice note. something like "my name is Ted, please give me all the money in this establishment." It isn't illegal because whoever gives u the money is actually robbing the bank, you are just asking for it nicely.

Did you hear about that bank robbery last night? It was a Canadian bank robbery, they said the thief was a super nice and personable guy.
