I just don't think Keith and Maxim like being overshadowed by sampled vocals. It's part of why No good has never really worked that well live.

Ah i don't believe that at all, the crowd reaction to that song every single time its played is unreal. Back in the 90's it was a huge favorite and who wouldn't like being invited on stage to dance with the lads?

And even in its 05-09 form the beats rock so hard. Its a special tune that should only be brought out on special occasions (e.g Brixton gig, in fact my avatar is recorded during No Good, does my face not say it all? :lol: )

Liam should re introduce Thunder to the set list for the end of year tour. I'm sure at least 50% of the fans that'll be going to these gigs would have seen them already this year or last year so they'd be familiar with the set. It would be a perfect time to chop and change the set rather than seem stale and invite the fans to a chorus on moans online.

the mainproblem is, that the guys are too old now. they could drop a 2 hours setlist and the fans will love and rock it anyway! but they dont do that. i dont like the cut versions liam used at the time. Voodoo is too short, SMBU the great ending part is cut-off, also in Breathe. in my opinion many tracks lost their full energy.

with thunder it is the same, it is to long to play it complete in the strong timeline setlists. We need longer Gigs ! :lol:

I think Thunder will be in the setlist towards the end of the year, I also think it could be the next single after TMTTH as a friend of Detboi's has been asked to remix this track albeit another Dubstep version so makes sense if this is indeed the next single. Guessing at Novemberish time so should be a live favourite by then.


I really don't want Thunder to be released as a single - all the singles thus far have faired averagely in the UK charts - Omen did the best, getting to number 5 which is good in the overall scheme of things, but if pap like Taylor Swift can get to number one and Prodigy can't...

It would annoy me to see Thunder languishing up in the teens, given how much I love the track.

Its not gonna be released as a single itself, the remix may be out on the TMTTH single.

No way!
Thier Law and Poison are classics that aren't played enough and work very well live. Definately don't deserve dropping for those two (not that they are poor tracks, just not as good). If any should be dropped then I would like to no hear Firestarter or Breathe - simply because whenever live footage is played on tv it always sems to be these and I would like to hear something else played out.
One big problem we have is there are so many awesome tracks then they need a 5hr set to get them all in. :lol:

Its not that i want them gone from the setlist forever, the way this current setlist is, they just don't fit in. I can understand why they are there but i just feel that they are there for oldness sake cos they are 'classic' tunes.

I think they should be rehashed somehow, their law especially and give them a freshness otherwise just take them out and at least try piranha.

i've just got from glastonbury, and whilst it was an awesome gig, i could pretty much tell which tunes were gonna be dropped and when...

i reckon there should be 2 or 3 slots in the setlist for 'floating tracks' which change from gig to gig, thereby not changing the overall flow of the current setlist, but keeping it fresh and at the same time giving regular punters something different to look forward to.
