The Prodigy

So they are back recording but will they be ready to perform? Guess if they are they will be given a slot, but where?

Other headliner surely ?even if they are not so good .. it will be a respect thing   .... plenty of time before June

I think it's a huge if, but if they're back playing live they can only really be a headliner and the Other stage would be the best fit. Other than the post about the studio there has been no indication of any live performances yet.

They'd get a huge crowd too.

I’ll take Prodigy over any of the rumoured Pyramid headliners so far. These guys on the Other will do me fine.

I really don't know how I feel about it tbh.  Musically at least Liam IS Prodigy, and if you're cold about it I think it would be relatively easy to find someone to fill what Keith did vocally.

BUT

When you think Prodigy, Keith is the first thing that you see.  Visuals, the attitude of the band, just...yeah.

[squirrelarmy]

I’ve been thinking the same. 
 

Keith was the front man but the music making talent of the game came from elsewhere. 
 

They can still put on a hell of a show visually, could be a perfect tribute to Keith

[HattersBoy]

I would be totally up for this, noone will forget Keith so to say they should never perform is actually against what Keith would have believed in i think. He just wanted to rave.

But I wouldn't want to be the person to fill his shoes. I would be there whatever and whenever!

I just can't see them doing such a big show as Glastonbury until they've found their feet again.  They've never indulged nostalgia, so I don't think there's any fear of them not coming back live, though it'll obviously be something different.

I just don't know whether Liam will want to take it live in the same way. He is The Prodigy so I'll respect whatever he decides to do. 

For the record, though, I don't think they'll be there. 

[a6l6e6x]

Just can't imagine these guys live without Keith, he was the face of the band and had such a great stage presence

Chris Martin will be on the phone to Liam before you know it...

Being back in the studio is one thing but to up and start touring again (especially big gigs like Glastonbury) seems unlikely to me. I’m sure they’ll be back touring at some point, but I don’t see it being next year.

[lukethekid]

Do you think they could it with a hologram? 

[Quark]

I bloody hope not

[Cooter]

Would be well up for this. However, as much I respect Keith and Maxim I much preferred Liams music before all the shouting and screaming started. Might appeal to some but to me it ruins a good night out.

That would be worse than replacing him with a person IMO. 

I think continuing with Maxim and having Keith's vocals as part of the backing track would be better.

I imagine that would be the last thing any of them would want.

Why? It’s been done before, Wu-Tang did it with a hologram of Ol’ Dirty Bastard at Rock The Bells, they had a hologram of 2Pac at Coachella. I think it’d be pretty nice to still sort of have him on stage.

Maybe or maybe not, would they want to be on stage without him? I know he wouldn’t be on stage but you’d get a feel that he was there.
