Wooderson!!!! You fucking genius!! I could kiss you right now!!! This has me beaming

I have no idea were my cassette recording of this gig is and if I still have it but now it does not matter. That gig will always be "my Prodigy gig". 14 years old and going ape shit.

This was one of the most played 60 mins of music when I was a teenager... This is nostalgia gold!!

Thank you sir! Thank you!!!

20 years ago chief. A banger of a night.

Asked this in TITP forum but where's that poster/tour dates came from?

I can't find it on their website, Facebook or Twitter

They emailed the dates out to everyone on their mailing list. Presale is at 10am on Monday via the prodigy website. General sale is on Wednesday

Cheers but no use for me as they ain't announced a Scottish date!

Ha ha. As others have answered for me - there are plenty of gigs i very happily go to entirely sober, the prodigy isn't really one of them!

Going back to my original point of a saturday gig over a friday though (for someone who works mon-fri) it's not even really about drinking just winding down from work enough to enjoy it... which is one of the reasons i love glastonbury so much - by the time the main stages start on the friday the real world seems a very distant memory.

This is such a valid point about Glastonbury. It's awesome to have everything those two days first to get out of work mode. Not too keen on midweek gigs for that reason. I go to them anyway but it does taint he enjoyment a tad.

I don't like to enquire smashed at gigs - well most of the time! - but for Prodigy I'd want a few drinks first. Was pretty drunk at their last Brixton gig and that was wicked.

I fly back from a holiday on he Saturday and flights aren't booked yet. Sort of wondering if I could make it... Bloody Ally Pally though.

Pretty impressed you managed to get to the bar enough times in Brixton Academy to get drunk! It's like hell on earth getting a drink in there! I love it and it's just down the road from my house but the bars are always a nightmare I find!

Too many exclamation marks. Apologies. Got excited clearly.

Preloaded mate. That last Brixton gig was a late start and they didn't come on until midnight. Brixton Wetherspoons is your friend.

Seems odd they have missed out Manchester. It's gonna have to be headlining Other or nothing at all from what people are saying. I'd be there for Out of Space, Fire Starter, Smack My Bitch Up and Girls amongst other older tracks. I think they might not come though unless offered a Pyramid slot and as if that will happen

Unless they're doing Parklife and hence under contract not to do a gig only a month beforehand?

Surely The Prodigy are too big for Parklife? They're major festival headliners.

They played WHP which held maybe 5000. I do not think they are too big for a festival which gets maybe 50000 a day.

The prodigy would be a fantastic fit for Parklife

Those WHP gigs were special intimate gigs and they did like 3/4 nights. They're too big for a festival that had Snoop Dogg and Foals headlining last year.

Does seem to be growing, so they might take a punt. Doubt it though.

Is it not the same guy behind Parklife and WHP though? If he managed to persuade them to do the intimate gigs then I reckon he would be able to get them to play Parklife.

Surely they would get a good fee for it and they would rather play at Heaton park rather than do their own gig at the Arena?

Just to add, Snoop is absolutely huge in Manchester, especially in the north of Manchester which seems to have strikingly different taste in music to the south of the city.

    • Tell me more. Last Latitude we went to was '21 - my son was young & had a wagon so we snuck good beers in that way. I remember there being some Brooklyn IPA on sale which was tolerable - are you saying they don't sell anything other than Carlsberg now?! 😳 
    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
