Fantastic day and amazing set. Prefer the smaller crowds and venue's where the band can interact more with the audience though. Definatley in the top 3 Prodigy gigs ive been too. Cardiff Their Law tour No1 and the Rainbow, Birmingham No2.
Weather Experience was epic, overcome with emotion and nearly came in my pants when EITP was dropped!!

Quote: A FESTIVAL held by THE PRODIGY sounds like the stuff dreams are made of.
And with the British summer thankfully holding out, it turned out to be exactly that. A huge crowd assembled at the Milton Keynes Bowl, a fitting arena for what was to be one of the gigs of the year. The Warriors Dance Festival was a day-long party attended by a capacity crowd of 65,000, some of whom had travelled from mainland Europe for a chance to see The Prodigy and their guests. Sets by PENDULUM, ENTER SHIKARI, CHASE AND STATUS and ZANE LOWE (in between acts) kept the revellers buoyant, but were a mere prelude to what was a thunderous display by the outfit. By the time they arrived on stage anticipation was at a high - and no one was disappointed. With MAXIM and KEITH FLINT bouncing around the stage with the energy of a pair of toddlers, ROB HOLLIDAY tearing it up on the guitar, LEO CRABTREE on drums and the digital maestro LIAM HOWLETT on the buttons, a buzz spread around the venue from the get go. And they maintained a high level of energy throughout the set, which lasted almost two hours - supported by a back catalogue of tunes that spans some 20 years. Recent tracks from their latest LP Invaders Must Die pleased the younger members of the crowd. Chart toppers Breathe, Smack My B***h Up and Firestarter caused utter mayhem as mosh circles broke out in various parts of the crowd. While classics like Charly, Everybody In The Place, Voodoo People and Poison kept the older fans happy. An epic finale involved the whole crowd singing along in unison to Out Of Space. As Maxim left the stage he stated it was the 'best night of my f*****g life' - no doubt a large portion of the crowd felt the same way.

Quote: Rave-rock legends The Prodigy have played their biggest ever headline show in Milton Keynes.
The Prodigy are enjoying a curious second life. Formed in the white heat of the rave era, the band endured a rocky decade following the enormous worldwide success of 1997's 'Fat Of The Land'. The band returned with last year's album 'Invaders Must Die', a rejuvenated set which came just as The Prodigy were being name dropped by a new generation. Organising an enormous show at the Milton Keynes Bowl, The Prodigy recruited some of these new acts to play support slots. Enter Shikari, Chase & Status and Australian drum 'n' bass mentalists Pendulum all played support slots before The Prodigy emerged to huge cheers from the 65,000 fans. Speaking to fans before the show, singer Keith Flint had promised a "super-thumping show". Opening with a string of classics, The Prodigy explored the full reaches of their back catalogue alongside new material. Toasting the success of 'Invaders Must Die' the show included early hits such as 'Voodoo people' and 'Out Of Space'. A career spanning set, the show lasted 90 minutes and was a pulsating insight into one of the most seismic dance acts to emerge from these shores. The crowd went wild throughout, with rapper Maxim thanks fans for the support they have shown the band over two decades. Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, Pendulum bass player Gareth McGrillen spoke of the debt his band owes The Prodigy. "I've been fans of them for as long as I've been into music. It's a real pleasure to have their blessing. We can't wait - it's going to be a big day." Continuing, the Pendulum star claimed that the group are ready to follow in The Prodigy's footsteps. "Without sounding egotistical we're definitely ready for these sized crowds. We love it. There's nothing better than a crowd that big, especially when they're going off."

Back in The Netherlands, got some sleep, and here i'm sitting.. sad that it is over..
The weekend started out with a car drive to the airport, took the plane to Stansted, coach to Milton Keynes, city bus to the centre.. Then what.. Hmmm.. We asked a female Police Officer for directions, she gave us a lift in the police car, that was cool. People looking at us if we were bad ass criminals  Then took a cab to the campsite in Emberton.
Had a great night with some guys who stayed at the campsite also.. Got really wasted.. Good times.. Saturday D-day!! Cab to the bowl, little walk, we were quite late, so to be in the front pit was no option we thought.. But.. they were still letting people in, we got our whristbands.. Whooop! First victory! Then to find an ATM! Queued for half an hour, stick the card in the machine: Card not accepted! Holy Shit! No, this can't be happening! My brothers 2 cards weren't accepted either.. Damn.. So we had about 50 pounds to spend for the 2 of us.. Bummer.. Queues for the bars were immense, waiting an hour and a half for a beer is just not acceptable. So, these two thing ruined the day a bit for the 2 of us. Chase & Status was wicked! Their track "Time" (with guest singer Delilah) was immense. What a good vibe that track has! Then we prepared for The Prodigy. Got in the back of the front pit to really enjoy the show and dance and jump. I'm not a moshpit type of guy, so the back of the front pit was best place for us. Lot's of space to dance, jump, cheer and enjoy the show. When the stage was showed, with the ambulances hanging there, goosebumps! They came on with a new intro, very good. I hoped that Break & Enter was played first, but they got on with Worlds on fire. Longer than usual. Colours was good, the new Poison fill was brutal. Then after the heavy RWTW everybody left the stage except for Liam. Weather Experience!!!! WHOOOOOOOP!!! Never thought i would hear this live, but this was so amazing! This were such an intense 3 minutes!! Hairs on my arms, neck, even on my ass went up! Only thing, sound crumbled and disformed from were we were standing. Mindfields was amazing aswell. Omen Reprise with the red lights was also huge. As always Diesel Link and SMBU were amazing. The whole front pit got down low. I stood up to look behind the front pit. First row after that couldn't get down, they were almost crushed into the fences, but after them i couldn't see anyone, so they were down also. Bass kicked in, with an earthquake as a result. Massive!! After TMTTH they dropped EITP! That was the best of the night. Amazing rework. Wicked bassline! Jumped 50 feet high on this one. Then No Good. Heard it back in 96 in original version. Never heard the reworked version live before. But it was immense! Really good. Charly dubby version was good also, then Their law and OOS. To be honest, i hoped a little more. I expected that Break & Enter, Wind it up and Jericho were dropped also, but they didn't. Back at the campsite my brother and i talked the day over.. We overall had a feeling of dissapointment. The ATM thing, the bar situation, this being the first prodigy gig not really in the mood (lack of beer and tired from the traveling). And hoping for some more tracks. But now back home after a good sleep, this was most definitely one of the best days.. Epic!! I wanna thank the 3 brothers we met at the campsite, u were the best!! Sorry for the badass long impression, but i need to share it...

I think he has mixed the original one cause the bass must had been overwhelming. You can hear maxim and the crowd only when the beats stop.
