The Prodigy fans praise their ‘absolutely insane’ Glastonbury set as they perform on The Other Stage before paying an emotional tribute to late member Keith Flint

The Prodigy fans have heaped praise on the band’s ‘absolutely insane’ Glastonbury set as they took to The Other Stage on the final day of the festival on Sunday. 

During their performance, the iconic electric band paid an emotional tribute to late member Keith Flint, as they made their first appearance at Worthy Farm since the death of the singer.

They had been due to play at the annual festival back in 2019, but were forced to cancel amid the passing of the founding member, who died on March 4 2019, aged 49.

And The Prodigy’s remaining members ensured they performed a set Keith would be proud of, thrilling fans with rip-roaring opener Voodoo People before vocalist Maxim, 58, said some words about the late star. 

He told the crowd: ‘This is the fourth time we have played this festival. There are supposed to be five of us, but six years ago, we lost our brother. This show tonight is dedicated to Mr. F**king Flint. This is his night!’

Maxim, alongside Liam Howlett, Rob Holliday and Leo Crabtree ripped through some of the band’s biggest hits during their set including Firestarter, Omen, Light Up The Sky, Smack My B***h Up and Breathe.

In 2024, Liam Howlett opened up about the decision to return to performing live without Keith.

He told NME: ‘After losing Keith we couldn’t even think or talk about the band. I think it was two years after his death that me and Maxim started bringing it up. “Could we play live again? Did we even want to? Why? How?’ All that s**t”.’

‘We realised the only possible real way to know how we would feel was to do it: get back on stage and do a bunch of gigs. 

‘It was so hard to walk onto that stage without our brother, but we really felt the crowd with us. Those gigs were highly emotionally-charged but we came out the other end with our answer.’
