So, there I was watching 'Dancer In The Dark' for the first time (film was recommended by Roddy
), really getting into it and I had a phone call midway through, I saw it was my mate but left it coz I watching the film. But he was persistent and kept ringing so I finally answered. He has a spare ticket to see The Prodigy, which has been sold out since the first day of sales!!! Needless to say, the DVD went off and the iron went on!
WHAT A NIGHT!!! WHAT A GIG!!!
Anyone who gets the chance to see them live MUST do so! They played most o their hits, with it being The Singles tour, but with a couple of ommissions, notably 'Girls' which my mate really wanted to hear.
BUT!!! THEY PLAYED 'CHARLY'!!! Hahaha! EXCELLENT!!
A few of us managed to get right down the front too, right at the barrier! Keith came down once and we all tried to reach him as he was holding his hands out and shaking others' as the gig was still rolling. My mate's mate managed to touch him, lucky bint, but I failed. MEH! Her mate was so happy she licked her hand! Haha! The place was wild and the crowd were really enigmatic! Probably the best gig I've seen all year. Really great!
I did manage to take plenty of photos, but as ever I'm forever taking craps photos with this camera of mine when it comes to gigs. I have trouble getting a good image, maybe I should get around to reading the manual, I mean, I've had it for over a year. Haha! It's a shame though as I was SOOO close to the stage that me/my camera had let me down. I think a couple are OK, but I'm a little annoyed with myself. Meh.
The Audio Bullys were in support, and they kicked arse too!
Al in all and amazing night and an amzing gig! It was the first time I 'let myself go' at a gig in ages!
So, hats off to The Prodigy!
