The missus is going to this, asked me to tag along but i just can not be arsed with the whole "mongs on drugs bumping into people" scene any more.

I bet the place is rocking mind, if that's what you are into, watched the video for "invaders must die" again today and its starting to grow on me, the new stuff they bring out always seams to take a while to become likeable in my opinion, i thought they had recently went off the rails in a big way, until i heard "spitfire" and i love that track

saw them many many years ago, at the Brixton Academy I think. This was before Fat of The Land, ie tracks like 'Charlie', 'Your Love', 'out of space'

They were fantastic at the time, but I was much younger and 'on one'

I saw them at Brixton a few weeks back. Absolutely superb as ever, had a fantastic night. Energy like no others. If you get a a chance to see them on this tour, do it, the place erupted

The new single, Omen, is out on 16th Feb and the album is out on 23rd Feb

Nope no such thing as commercial modern dance music anymore... well not unless you class Bass Hunter and the likes there of as proper dance music (I DO NOT)

Just get your Prodigy CD's out, and make them listen to ever single track on every CD

And the 'What Evil Lurks' EP which i think is still one of Liams' finest moments .

Thing is with Prodigy,Orbital etc they are talented unlike now the 'dance acts' just rip off old 1990s tunes and put a bassline behind it and some crappy lyrics.
