I was at that gig in Dublin in 1997, Noel was brilliant that night,I have a soundboard copy of the gig that's in my collection , his acoustic set that night was fantastic.

that was in the point a few years later he didnt make it.
Yup, Thought they were shit , no crowd interaction whatsoever. Finished my interest in em.
Wasnt into the Prodigy at the time but they blew them off the stage.
I have to agree, very disappointing. Liam just stood there like he was taking a dump. the Prodigy were miles better.
Not having a go lads, but I really can't understand why people are so bothered about lack of crowd interaction. Maybe its beacuse I've been to so many Dylan shows but I think its seriously overrated.
You're there because of the music I presume, not to hear so and so say "We love you Cork" or whatever.
Unless you can sound genuine about it, like The Boss when hes taking to the crowd, it comes off as pointless and fake imo.
Fair point, but I remember that gig, and he stayed glued to the spot for most of the gig, hardly even moved at all. Of course the music is first, but it's nice to get something extra also, this is live, not a reproduction of the album. The Prodigy, a band I would never have listened to at that time, made a big impression on me. I had seen Oasis the year before when they supported REM at Slane, it seemed to be better than the Cork gig.
