blanking the UK massive 1 year, 2 months ago #62048

So 1 festival is all the UK gets this year? I was under the impression that the WDF was pretty much it for the year spending up on that and now there are other gigs popping up here and there. You know some of us cant always or ever manage to travel to see you, and make sacrifices to be able to have the chance. Going to see the prodigy basically keeps me from going totally mental in this shit world. Why do the prodigy appear to be a dance act for the people when its running away from the scene in the UK. Run with the wolves was to keep us happy, thanks, it was amazing in blackpool but seems a long time ago. Are the UK a pack of wolves that are just a bunch of pricks and europe plus rest of world more fun and you are bored with us here. I am lucky because i am going to serbia, its a proper prodigy gig, with real prodigy people. Download may be a great gig, but it is too much to handle for a rave, i just cant deal with the whole size and logstical shit with bi polar, it will be a nightmare. I saw the prodigy at Bestival 2010 and its not always as good when its a varied mix of festival people....So not a single UK dedicated gig for 2012. Respect is a 2 way street Prodigy and the prodigy vibe runs through my blood, it feeds me. But no UK support is dissing the UK massive, we still need you. It was sad because WDF here was not a good experience for me and prefered watching it in wimbledon odeon, with friendly people dancing around old school. I can see europe is a different and less agro from being out there, but please do a small UK tour, maybe you are just too big now and thats why... cos a rave in a sardine factory isnt much fun please one day read my shit and know how positive the prodigy have been for me and many of us here in so many ways... thankyou

Gawd, he's orf again...

Can't be arsed to read all that ^^ but just want to point out IT'S ONLY FRIKKIN MARCH.

After hearing the same setlist for three years, I would like my next trip to see them only when they have some new shit to play.

There is new material, obvious from the Brazil footage on youtube. Getting it to work from studio to live and UK is clearly another issue. Would like more freestyle, Maxim seems to have Mc shackles on ;( The jaws poison fill was Maxim on form again ....for me anyway

I am not quite sure what the difference between WDF at MK bowl and WDF apart from it's on a slightly smaller scale. If you didn't enjoy the mk version then what makes you so sure you'll enjoy that the Serbia gig? it's no Brixton academy gig. I'd be more wary of attending a gig in a foreign country because of the language barrier. If you get into difficulty, who's going to help you?

I disagree with you that the Prodigy are dissing the Uk fans. They played a lot of gigs here between 2008 & 2010 there is no point them playing more dates here until there is substantial new material. We also have to consider that the Prodigy may have signed a contract with Download which has a clause in it that says a UK tour can't be announced until after the gig as they have secured exclusive rights. I do believe that they'll be back touring the UK at the back end of the year and plenty of gigs next year, more than enough to keep us hardcore fans happy.

Not necessarily, more like smaller gigs to promote a new album.

One or two new tracks is pointless for me.

I don't think we'll get them type of gigs for a while. 2008 was a different era and they were the best gigs ever!

You have so many gigs in the uk every year, many of us don't have that luck, me for instance only went to 1 gig and it was in 2009!

The one and only time I saw Prodigy was during the Linkin Park tour. I traveled way out of my league just to see an even shorter version of the setlist that you b!tches keep complaining about. I don't care where or how, I just want to once again see my favorite band live. The UK is obviously the origin of the band and thus you're always guaranteed that the band will return for as long as they remain a band. Some countries never get to see the Prodigy once. I recall in the India video a fan stating that he never thought he'd see the Prodigy in his own country. Be grateful that your country is the band's country of origin!

But I do understand that waiting for more awesomeness sucks. Long live Prodigy

I can see your point, but it would be nice to hear something from HQ once in a while about gigs. As for the bitching that's from withdrawl ..... It's an addiction and you have just been poisoned
