Well, a guy(klr) has posted some pics and videos. :)

I've asked him if it was ok to share it with other people, he told me he already is, so I may. ;)

You know, girls have those two things at the front... ask your parents about that. :P



It was impossible to be that way at the front when The Prodigy was playing, just IMPOSSIBLE.

This was the online radio transmition, a guy recorded all of it.

I just took the part where The Prodigy was playing.

I know that the sounds has some problems, but that's how the original was, I could do nothing about that.



You need eMule to download this. ;)

Well, if you don't want to download that mp3, I can send it to you later when I get back to practice. ;)



You can also ask Foxy, I've sent it to him.

If he doesn't want to send it to you, kick him in the nuts. ;)

Part IV



FIRESTARTER!

Wait, what is this?!

It was like a remix or something, I didn?t like it as much as the original Firestarter, it was a real pitty, doing that with one of their most known song, a hymn, a classic.

It lost a lot of its original energy. :(

I have no idea why they?ve decided to do that with such a song. : \

It wasn?t any remix I knew, it was something new.



WARNING!!!

Wow!!! It sounds great!!!!!

A lot of people didn?t know this one. I could see that just looking at their faces.

I can tell you that this fixed the mess that Firestarter?s remix did.

I took a look at the drummer, and he was totally insane, all the drums were shaking!!!

I was totally insane, head banging, jumping, singing, and I started feeling something wrong in my feet while some morons kept trying to push me.

Some people start looking at me like ?wtf are you doing?!?, omg, haven?t you noticed that this is The Prodigy?!!!! Why do you look at me that way?!!!!!!



Keith gets down from stage and comes to the corridor, he was very very close, the girl that was almost next to me touched him, and she went mad, like when some girl went to see the Beatles back in the 60s. :D :P



Warning is over?

?Nooooooooooooooo NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!? I started shouting.

The guy that?s in front of me turns back, he thought that I didn?t like what we were listening, but then he saw my uber happy face... :D

CLIMBATIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another of my favourite songs, and I would have NEVER waited for this song to be played live!

There I thought ?if they happen to play Weather Experience or Skylined I?ll die!?.

I closed my eyes once again, took a deep breath, tried to relax, let the music take control of my body and have a little rest, it was a refreshing song.

It was just another transition, but it was a GREAT time and I enjoyed it a lot! :)



Remember the ?Beatles? girl? She made me laugh when Climbatize started? she shouted ?NARAYAAAAN!!!!!!?. X-D

I was having sooooo much fun, I was so excited, and the best thing was that I had the feeling that this was lasting a LOT!

I was already tired as hell, breathing was almost impossible, I couldn?t move.

Many times I tried to jump, just tried, because there were a lot of people around me, we were very very very close and some of them weren?t jumping.

I don?t remember when this happened, but Liam started pointing at something, and he looked desperate, I was begging that it was just some minor problem, but I got really worried, but that just lasted 4 or 5 seconds and I kept enjoying the show. :)

The guitarist wasn?t the only bottle thrower, Maxim did that as well, he grabbed a bunch of 0.5 litre bottles and threw them, unfortunately, once again to the right side, I wanted one, but I wasn?t going to open it if I got to catch it. :D

And where are the 3 fans? Well, I saw them from time to time, it was hard to remain on the same spot. Two of them were trying to tie their shoe laces, so I helped them a little bit, I grabbed them from their waist. Their face was the same as mine, they had a very big smile. :)

We were having a lot of fun and we were really enjoying the show.

I?ve seen something strange on my left side so I turned my head to the left? oh God, now I?m really mad, and I?m not joking! There?s a MAN, at least 50 years old, trying to jump, I take a look at his clothes and they had nothing to do with this event!

That was bizarre!



Now it?s Maxim the one that gets to the corridor and some people smash me against it once again. All of them with their digi cams and cell phones.

At that moment I was more worried about having a close look at Maxim than paying attention to the music, I knew that it could be the last chance I had to do that. I sound like a fan right? Well, I AM!!!! :D

Maxim and Keith were the two reasons why I was next to the corridor. ;)

They played a classic, which I won?t tell, since some people are going to see them live, and it?s better to be a surprise.

I never though they would play it, but they did! :D



The show is about to ?end?, I already knew that they were going to come back. ;)

So the ?last? song was Voodoo People.

Once again that was a total madness, I was singing as loud as I could, but this time I could barely shout, I was almost dead.

Everybody was jumping once again, and I started feeling some more pain coming from my right foot.

Voodoo People is over, the show is ?over?.

Everybody started shouting and whistling, we wanted more!!! :D



Now I get next to the corridor, time to have a nice clear view of everything. ;)

After some seconds, that felt eternal to me, they are all back to stage!

What a great return!!!

POISON!!!!

I was already dead, tired as hell, I had also killed my voice, but I kept trying to sing, sometimes nothing came out of my mouth.

The guy in front of me was standing still, but I could see that he was head banging and singing, so I grabbed him from his waist and I started jumping, of course, I was trying to make him jump!

He looked back, saw my uber happy face, he smiled and started jumping with me! :D

Then he looked back once again while I was still grabbing him from his waist, but this time with a bigger smile and a face that I got as a ?thank you, this is great!?.

I have no idea how I did that, I could barely jump and I was helping this guy to jump, and he was bigger and taller than me!!! :D



Release Yo?delf

What is this doing here?!

?Will Maxim sing this one, are they going to play it? I don?t think it?s a good idea? I thought.

It was just another transition. :)



SMACK MY BITCH UP!!!!!!!

WOW!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!

The bass was amazing!!!!!!

It was so fucking hard!!!!! I never felt something like this!!!!

You could feel the bass PUNCHING your face, your body and BLOWING your hair off!!!!!

Everybody was singing, seems that nobody missed its video. :D :P

Keith got off from stage and he started walking by some tubes, with the help of the security guys. He could be seen from every place.

Then he got like 2 metres away from me, so I start moving my hand telling him to come to the corridor, then another guy that is like a metre away from me starts doing the same, but he didn?t come. It doesn?t matter, I was having a very clear view. :)



Out of Space!!!!!!

This is the second time that I hear this song thsi night, first by Audio Bullys with their remix, and now the original by The Prodigy! :D

It was so great to hear ano? ermmm, I mean, listen to an Experience song! :P

I was already destroyed at that point, I tried to sing, but that time NOTHING came out of my mouth and I couldn?t jump anymore, all I could do was to ?semi jump?, I mean, just get on the tip of my feet.

Now yes, the show is over, Maxim thanks everybody and they all went down from stage.



I realize what I?ve just done, I was singing, jumping, with the group that I love!!! :D 8O :D

I?ve achieved one of my dreams!!!!!! I just saw The Prodigy live!!!!!!! :D :D :D





Stay tuned for Part V! ;)

HOLY SHIT..... 8O



Back from prodigy, it was fuckin MIND BLOWING

it was sooo fun, so ACE, soooooo cool. TBH its the best concert ive been to, to date. The music was superb. I love the chemical brothers music and theyre shows but this is a tough decision..

Odyssey vs Marley Park, Odyssey

Chems or Prodigy - CHEMS! ( think id not say chems :P)

Prodigy (this year) vs Chems (this year) - Prodigy



2-1 prodigy.



Not to say ive converted but the show was absolutely amazing.. i loved every second



Btw i got to touch Kieth, I touched him 3-4 times, And then when he was singing a song ( cant remember).. he was lookin into my eyes and then i did the Meet the Parents gesture where i take my hand and point to my eyes and then point to him... he was like Shaken his head and stuff and then we went Bezerk together :P Him on stage obviously me at the front of the crowd

Maxin + Keith were realllllll like, Giving the crowd what they wanted. Maxim came down and shook hands and so did Keith, they came down and sung infront of us and i as trying sooo hard just to touch the guy..



It was amazing - Ill write the actual review when im feelin better, just leakin it abit :P

6. Back 2 Skool--- Was exactly the same with this one.. I donno.. They love me :)



7. Hotride

8. Spitfire

9. Death of Prodigy Dancers

10. Breathe

11. Firestarter



Then at this point they said good bye u guys rock sortda thing, everyone chanting.. WEEE WANNT MORE.. Laim walks on does a few moves in front of our side (my side). Then gets up on his 'WEAPON' and Kicks it off with



12. Claustophobic Sting ( for a while)-(moves to)

13. Climbatize

14. Their Law - Again

15. No Good - Super Mixed up vers.



THey go back off stage and say goodbye, respect to all...then the chant begins.. ONE MORE TUNE!! ONE MORE TUNE.. they come bk on again :P, Throw bottles into the crowd (powerade..I tried sooo hard to get w.e they threw in but.. they threw it with a distance and i was at the front :()



16. Charly

17. Out Of Space

You touched Keith?

Just that? :P

Now you agree that Smack My Bitch Up's bass is like a punch in the face? ;)

X-D you thought I was telling lies? :P



Death of Prodigy Dancers?

Did they play that???



Charly, I would have love to hear that one. ;)



What about Poison and Voodoo People?





I'm glad that you like it whirly. :)

Now what's left is the part after The Prodigy, I went away after that. ;)

People started going away.

Now I can breathe, but my body is dead.

I?m drunk, not really, I just walk like if I was drunk, my feet felt really heavy and all the garbage on the floor was making it even harder for me.

I start walking back very slowly.

My idea was to stay and see Infusion, but I?m destroyed and totally wet from head to toes.

I had some serious lung problems when I was born. My parents always remind me about that and they tell me to take care of it or something bad may happen.

I was away from home, alone, and I didn?t want any of those bad things to happen, so it was better if I got back to the hotel.



Oh I?m so thirsty, but I decided to wait some more time and instead of buying 0.5 litres of water, I could have more than 3 litres of coke in some minutes. :D

I knew that I would have to take a taxi, but I didn?t have enough money, so I went back to the merchandising tent once again and bought a line up with some dollars that I had, that way I could have some more argentinian pesos.

There wasn?t any line, so I did that really quick.

Now I?m out of Creamfields, I look back and remember all the great things that happened that night, I?ll never, NEVER forget it.



I thought that there would be a line of taxis waiting at the exit, but I was wrong, I had to walk like 6 blocks, and I was really tired.

I got into the taxi and headed back to the hotel, but I was going to stop a couple of blocks before, I wanted to buy some coke.

Fortunately I found a place that was just 3 blocks away from the hotel. I just grabbed two 1.5 litre bottles of coke and some cookies, I didn?t have dinner that night. :D

People were looking at me in a very strange way, well, my clothes were ?unique? and I was all wet. :P



Now I?m at the hotel, when I?m at the door the guy inside says ?no vacancy!?, ?no, I?m already staying here!? I replied :D

Seems that he didn?t like my appearance. :P

He asks my surname and gave me my room?s keys.

I started getting naked(I already said that I didn?t have a cam, so don?t ask for pics :P) and I see a bruise in my arm and some in my leg,

Remember that I was feeling something wrong in my right foot? Well, I had a blister, a big one, and also something that I got before, but it got worse, my nail. :)

Many people stepped and landed on my nail that night, and you can see the results in this pic(not recommended). ;)







Now the serious part of this review.



I?ve achieved one of my dreams, I was waiting for this moment for a lot of years.

I had a great weekend. On Friday I went to see Buddha Sounds and on Saturday I went to Creamfields, where I saw The Prodigy, the band that I love.

I had a lot of fun, and enjoyed every single moment.



This wasn?t a good year for me, I?ve lost two people; the girl that I loved and one of my best friends.

My girlfriend dropped me by the end of 2004, some of you already know about this.

My best friend Juan committed suicide just a week before his birthday, in July, he was two years younger than me.

As you might imagine, I was sad and depressed.



I have to thank The Prodigy because you guys filled me with energy to keep going, I really needed something to push me up and you really did.



I have to thank one more person that isn?t with me anymore, Juan.

You might remember that I said ?This one is for you Juancho!?, before The Prodigy started playing, it was because of him.

He was the one that one day showed me a CD with a crab on its cover, put it into the CD player and I fell in love with that sound. That was back in 1997, and of course, that CD was The Prodigy?s The Fat of the Land.





Thank you Juan and thank you The Prodigy!

:)

I really want to see the Prodigy again, after reading these reviews. It was such a good set. Wow. I would possibly literally kill to relive Coachella right now.
