Having seen them a few times before I was really up for this, especially as tickets were hard to come by!! The new song Invaders Must Die gave us a hint at what sound to expect, which was more old skool dance mixed with modern day Pendulum. Cant complain with that!! The warm up DJ Eddy Temple Morris got the jibe so right we he played Eric Prydz 'Pjanno', the crowd were also dancey and up for it, unfortunately he then played Rage Against The Machine Killing in the game!! WHY! This turned a proper ravey dancey crowd into a punk gig. Prodigy came on and this vibe continued. The bass was turned down and the volume up (typical metal set up). I was quite suprised because this wasnt expected. In fact when they played the new song again it was drowned out and almost inaudiable because of no bass and too loud! Then Maxim asked for a mosh circle to happen in the middle!! WHY! It was then like a Slayer gig. I love the Prodigy and they were the best live band ever. They themselves just need to decide what genre they want to be. You cant play 'Your Love' (early 90's rave) then ask for a mosh circle. I am seeing them in April and hope they get back to how they were. [less]

Wow! What a return to form!
After a suprisingly so-so show at Brixton in December I was eager to find out how this show was to pan out. The support was Dizzee Rascal, who put on a good show considering the crowd wasnt too into him! He done well.

Wow! What a return to form!
After a suprisingly so-so show at Brixton in December I was eager to find out how this show was to pan out. The support was Dizzee Rascal, who put on a good show considering the crowd wasnt too into him! He done well.
The Prodigy came on to Worlds On Fire and the crowd went wild! What was fantastic was the crowd were fab, no pushing or stupidness as the Brixton show was (coastal crowds are so much better!!) but what was even more apparent was the sound. The Bass ripped thru you! You could feel the music, which is what makes a Prodigy gig so special! The volume wasnt excessive but the Bass was full-on, which felt fantastic! New songs and the oldies all sounded superb. The set list, the crowd, the sound, was all great. They finished on Out Of Space and we all walked onto Brighton seafront sweaty, remarking with others how excellent the show was. [less]

Event Venue: The Orchard, Dartford

Had these tickets for ages! This was quite a hyped up show due to his popularity through BB Big Mouth. He'd played this venue only months before so this was quite a quick return.
Trevor Lock was was support and he really couldn't warm the crowd. The audio was fine but the crowd really didnt get him and it was almost embarrassing! After his 30min slot we had to wait 45minutes for Russell to appear!
Russell Brand appeared onstage at 9.30, very apologetic about being late because he was stuck in the Blackwell tunnel! True or not the crowd surely ribbed him about it!
His performance was good, but he is better on BBBM. The act being mainly witty stories told using his excellent grammar then he was propped up on a stool reading parts from The Dartford Times. He borrowed a audience members phone to call an advert that turned out to be for private massage! He finished at 11pm and stayed after to greet fans. The girls were especially happy! [less]

Have been a fan of Motorhead since I was a kid but never actually seem them live! My brother went to their 10th Anniversary at Hammersmith Odeon, but this was my first time, their 30th Anniversary Tour!
Their volume is stuff of legend, and its true, they are extremely loud!! They... [more]

Have been a fan of Motorhead since I was a kid but never actually seem them live! My brother went to their 10th Anniversary at Hammersmith Odeon, but this was my first time, their 30th Anniversary Tour!
Their volume is stuff of legend, and its true, they are extremely loud!! They opened with Dr Rock then 3 sonngs in the Bass amp blows! They played many classics before ending on Overkill. A great band. Great live but again very very loud!! [less]

Wow what a show!
Bought these tickets months before the actual show and the reviews for their festival performances were fantastic. On the night Id managed to get a good spot with my mate near the front. They came on to 'Smack,' and played almost all of the 'Fat of the land' album and the singles from Jilted. The sound was incredible. Not too loud but the bass ripped thru you! Literally making you burp!! Keith crept round the speaker stack to the side of the stage where everyone was unaware! We managed to touch him, then had about 30 people jump on us to try and get to him! They finished with Full Throttle as the lights came up. We were drenched with sweat and everyone was buzzing after this show. In this year the Prodigy were voted Best Live Act and Brixton Academy the Best Venue. This was so true. The show and sound was superb. Ive been to many various gigs, this was the best. [less]
