The Prodigy / The Chemical Brothers

I remember the Chemical Brothers had their decks set up in the middle of the stage in a slightly elevated position with to screens behind them showing black & white video of bombs being dropped and stuff exploding in rapid succession. It was intense but married up with their banging beats it was pretty cool.
For The Prodigy this marked the end of the dominance of the white glove wearing whistle blowing raver audience and saw the beginning of the heavy metal loving, black nail varnish wearing, mosh pit starting audience that developed out of Liam’s musical creations such as Poison, Firestarter and Their Law utilising grinding heavy guitar riffs and shouty, aggressive vocals. The audience was an odd mix of the two and looked a bit awkward. Next time I saw them the ravers had either gone elsewhere or assimilated into the rock audience, which was a shame. Liam was still producing bangers, Keith had something new through which we could get a slightly closer glimpse at his brilliant sense of humour and endearing personality. Unfortunately it was this change that ultimately saw the end of Leroy’s involvement because he was the only one who didn’t have a new direction to move in. Prompting him to make one of his own. He’ll always be apart of The Prodigy though. Interesting fact, Maxim’s real name is Keith Palmer like the Westminster Copper. Except real.
