il_serpente Posted March 2, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 2, 2019 I loved Soap. Don't remember much what she looked like from the neck up, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, never really listened to them myself but for a friend's birthday we went to see them at a gig and he was phenomenal / the gig was electric. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Their gig at the Roskilde festival in 97 was one of the most epic music events I've been at. Pretty much everyone of the 115.000 or so people at the festival was there, the rain that had been pouring down for 3 or 4 days straight finally stopped and it was just a sea of muddy people jumping around. The RATM gig the year before eclipses it but not by very much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcRigo82 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I do like some of the Prodigy stuff in drips and drabs. Sad news though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Probably one of the best live acts I've ever seen ( A few times), Gutted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted March 4, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 4, 2019 They were pretty ropey when I first saw them in 1993 (see below - £1 a pint!) but by the time I saw them again a few years later, they were immense. Not a band I'd put anywhere near the top of my list of favourites but as a live experience, they and he, were awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told at the docs a few weeks back that due to my astronomical BP I was a prime candidate for a stroke Luckily under control now with meds... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the greatest actor ever, but when I was a teenager I watched BH 90210 quite a lot and always thought he was cool. And he got to shag both Brenda and Kelly.

Mark Albrighton Posted March 4, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 4, 2019 Sad news about Luke Perry. I can’t say I saw much of his work but I did like his collaborative work with his half brother, Krusty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted March 4, 2019 Moderator Share Posted March 4, 2019 Keith Flint's a bummer. Firestarter and a few of those Fat of the Land tracks were staples in my DJ Sets for a few years. The Prodigy was one of those Dance Acts that actually did come across as a band and crossed over many scenes. Don't think that could have happened without Keith Flint as the front man 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottaloo Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) At the risk of me sounding a bit ghey......we usually have 2 prodigy tracks at our clubbercise class and i admit to freestyling to them as if i was in the Academy rather than following the instructor's steps. Gonna be odd hearing them now. I might turn off my glowsticks in solemn tribute. Edited March 4, 2019 by mottaloo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
