It wasn't Liam: (from BBC website): Delivering the eulogy, Paul Kaye read a tribute on behalf of Prodigy bandmate Liam Howlett: "You liked to live your life on the razor's edge for the buzz. "You were an anti-star, a pirate and committed to our cause of shaking people's souls and buildings." my bad, i listened to the service via facebook live stream and the voice sounded just like liam. apologies. |

The image of Liam with the belt has done me, incredibly moving but so so sad

The images of the funeral and the spontaneous raves are really moving. It's incredible to see how important they were for a generation of people around the world.
I'm listening to the Prodigy (91-97) and NT these days more than ever (when I go running it helps me to go on) |

Hopefully the eulogy will be published. It was difficult to hear everything said.

I shed a tear from what appears to be Maxim trying to hold back.

Seeing the small black coffin and then seeing all the band, Leeroy and Neil in one car was really moving but actually hearing the eulogy and the last words of the band to Keith was like a knife into the heart. So glad I made the journey to pay my respects. I am just broken by this. I take comfort in Liam’s words that his beats will never stop rolling for Keith.
Such a sad sad day. |

Someone posted the pictures on The Prodigy Dirtchamber group on Facebook Thanks for that but it doesn't include the eulogy which was read out by the actor Paul Kaye. It will be a lot of text as the reading lasted at least 20 minutes. |

Rachel Howlett’s live feed on Insta has some clips of the firework display set to Firestarter they had at the private event. Amazing stuff.

An extract from the eulogy (written by Martin Roach who wrote the 'Electronic Punks' book) where Liam said (as read by Paul Kaye) "Keith was always brutally honest and wasn’t afraid of anything. He said to me once when the time comes I’m not afraid to press the button. Keith you were a man of the people a man of integrity. A man of style and fearless self expression, the realest motherfucker".
