To be honest I was uncomfortable about doing the gig in the first place you know. We never wanted to be like the type of band playing stadiums or whatever. We still love to play Brixton, that’s what we’re about. But people just kept saying we should do it and I was like ‘we will only do it as our own festival, not a Prodigy gig with a support act.’ So we put together a good line up of bands and djs ,a cool small second stage ,we even had a tattoo tent doing ant logos … it was a celebration of twenty years. We wanted to put on a proper day and night for the people like knebworth oasis .
“In a way it was a bit of an accident really. There was never a masterplan to it. We wanted to do something special to round off the whole Invaders time. You know, that album was a great thing for us. It brought out all of the old skool fans again and took us to a brand new generation of fans. So we wanted to do something pretty special to leave our mark .We chose Milton Keynes Bowl in the end ‘cos it reminded us of goin to an old rave , a big green field , it had that energy to it.
