I never thought any other than Gizz Butt did a very good job on live shows. Specially Their Law and Firestarter!. The worst one was the guy during the 95 shows, can't remember his name. I am not impressed with this new guy either, he made The Prodigy sound a bit like a metal band.


Jim davies formerly of pitchshifter loved his gutar work on break and enter

well, looking on metallica setlist in Hong Kong and China, I see a lot of songs dropped in China, and standard setlist in Hong Kong. So I think they're cooler.
Hong Kong have some western way of life, but they're still very close to China authority as Taiwan.

It is true I think that HK will be more relaxed than mainland China, culturally it is more westernised.

The only time I've been aware of the language being moderated on stage was when they played Indonesia. I'm sure that with both SMBU and Their Law, whilst the vocal samples were played (possibly muted slightly or scrambled), Keith and Maxim did not add their parts. Maybe someone can do the legwork for me and look for the footage to confirm.

As a more general point, I would welcome less of the effing from Maxim, I think he relies on it too much and has long been lazy with his ad-lib vocals. "all my fucking warriors put your fucking hands in the fucking air, it's your fucking night" sort of dampens the effect. Long gone are the days when he would at least attempt a freestyle rap.
