GOOD GOD YES!!!! So many better tracks don't get to be aired. Also if the word goes out that FS isn't on the setlist then perhaps the gigs will return to being for fans rather than people going to a Prodigy gig so they can tick it off of their "to do" list. I don't think it ever will in reality though. FS is the track that launched Keith, it's Keiths signature, and all the time Keith is part of the Prodigy I am sure it will stay. FS and Breathe are the only 2 number ones, what band wouldn't play their only 2 top 10 hits?

A lovely thank you to Mr. W 30, James Jupiter the 8th, Mrs. 303, Mr. 909, and especially Monsieur Akai 1100 (The Earthbound Crew)

I voted yes on the basis that it's a great tune but it needs a break. I'd Liam to do a poll where they pick 10 tracks they've played constantly during the IMD era and the bottom 3 get relegated out of the set, replaced by 3 cracking tunes like Full Throttle, Break and Enter and Rhythm Of Life.

It would be interesting to see where Firestarter would come on the list.

Liam don't need to play the hits, on the smaller venues tour, they sell out anyway.

voted yes. as stated in another topic, this is the most boring tune of their set at the moment. that is in my opinion. i think they should either drop it or play the original version which is far better, but i can't see that happening so never mind. i'd really like to see them flipping the setlist after every while even if the tracklist stays the same. like they did in australia i think (Smack My Bitch Up was played in the middle somewhere)

There is going to be a time when Firestarter gets the chop. What happens if Liam writing another brilliant album and doesn't fancy expending the hour 20 mins set? Some big songs will have to go.

Nooooooo, ROL was just for the Brixton posse! Still sounds as fresh as it did at my first ever Prodge gig in '95. They played Roll 'n' Rock and Skylined that night too. Bliss-krieg. :shock:

No. Its not my favourite but it works so well live. I wouldnt want any song to be ditched completely, but having said that I think they should play it less often. The same goes for a number of others though, inc Voodoo People, Their Law, SMBU, Breathe etc. I'd love to see more rotation with some lesser known tracks, they have so much fame now they shouldnt have to play all the greatest hits every time.
