PRODIGY's return to the US stage after a five-year absence proved the biggest draw on the final day of California's COACHELLA FESTIVAL.

The group, who performed an evening set composed mainly of hits including 'Firestarter' and 'Poison' drew mixed reviews from the day's revellers. It took a while for the estimated 30,000 strong crowd to warm to the group who began their performance with a number of new tracks.

Frontman Maxim Reality seemed frustrated with the lack of response querying "Where the fuck are we? Are we on the West Coast or the East Coast? Where the fuck are we? I didn't come to fuck about."

About a third of the crowd left following the Prodigy, right before Oasis took to the stage for a typical festival set. The quintet dodged audience requests for Lynyrd Skynyrd songs, and instead performed fan-favourites 'Supersonic', 'Acquiesce' and 'Go Let It Out'.
