Speaking to Lindsay Kane, a George Michael fan at the O2 Indigo, she mentioned how Rob Lamberti is the next best thing to the real George. “I’ve always been a George Michael and Wham fan. I never got to see him live in concert, and Rob Lamberti is the nearest to getting the experience of what it would have been like to see George live.” Kane continued, “I love that he changes up the setlist, but you know it’s always going to be a party atmosphere. He is a soundalike and does look like George, but I like that he does bring his own personality to the show as well. “
