I know this isn\'t directly related, but I\'m sayin\' it: Radiohead\'s new album is outstanding! Does anyone agree? Does anyone disagree?

I am SO pumped for this Radiohead show on Wednesday!  I\'ve never seen them.  Just got my tix on EBay a couple of days ago.  Went out and bought "I Might Be Wrong" album yesterday, it\'s all live Radiohead, and man it sounds SWEET!  Looks like they\'ve got some MSG shows in October (sold out already).  Also, intruigingly, there is this one site that lists a show at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on October 14th, http://www.greenplastic.com/gigography/index.php?year=2003

but EVERY other Radiohead tour dates listing I can find does NOT list this show.  Weird.  Radiohead.com does not help at all either.  If this is a real show, I want to know about it!  Man, I am more pumped for this than I was for any of these Phish shows!

Glad there was some positive feedback. My experience with this album will force me to buy all of their other albums--besides Hail to the Thief, I have just Kid A. So over the next few weeks, I\'ll be researching. I\'ve heard OK Computer and like it, but do not like The Bends. Any opinions on other Radiohead albums? Also, and I have no idea no long it will be, but I will definitely see Radiohead the next time they come around. I have a feeling you guys are gonna get your ass kicked by them live. Please review.

First off, Chris,  a) you should be impressed I am enlightening myself with this forum board because it will give me a chance to actually talk to people who understand music other than TOOL.  (plus my DC forum board does get a bit boring, i must admit.)

b)  I finally bought the new Radiohead album, all in part to your pitching of it.  The sample you played in your room one me over.  So I purchased it.  And I have been listening to it 24/7.  (I needed something now since I have no 104.)

Anyways, I also would love to hear some feedback from the show.  I think I\'d be willing to travel to see them if they played somewhere else on the east coast.  Does anyone know where the tour is headed?

I can\'t believe I actually said I don\'t like The Bends. It\'s great. Since that last post, I\'ve listened to it many times and I must say that it\'s a tremendous album. Currently, my list goes Hail to the Thief, Kid A, OK Computer, The Bends, Amnesiac, Pablo Honey. But there\'s more research to be done. I need to hear all of them, except the new one, many more times. And I will. Thanks to Tim for letting me borrow Computer, Amnesiac, and Pablo.

how could you not like amnesiac and hail to the thief? I think those are the best two. I am not really into pablo honey either, or the bends.  in  order my favorites are hail to the theif, amnesiac, kid a, ok computer, the bends, pablo honey. i would be pretty hard to rate them if i just started listening to them  recently and got the albums all at once., but i pretty much got them as they came out.

i wish i had tickets to msg, but i blew it when they went on sale. i didnt get to see them in august either because i think they were playing around here a couple days before berkfest and the day after berkfest and i could not afford to spend that much money in such a short amout of time. it would have been fun to go see radiohead > pb > berkfest > radiohead with no days off though.

I did make it to that show in june at the beacon that mtv taped and gave away $2 tickets for. people were out front willing to spend over $1000 to get tickets that did not even guarantee admission. A lot of people were turned away because mtv was using up the whole second floor and part of the lower level and upper balcony for their camera crew. i got inside before the doors opened without even having to wait in line because i knew a guy who worked down there. I got walked in past security while leonardo decaprio and other famous people actually had to stand in line, so that was a pretty cool. We also got free beer all night too and leo probably had to pay $7 a cup.

It was kind of wierd since they were taping for mtv. Some guy from mtv got on stage and annouced the band and had everyone cheer, but they did it an hour before the show and told everyone what to do. They did a few takes and i guess they used the best one and edited it so that it looked like everyone was cheering as the band walked on stage. It was a cool show though. They played one set and then several encores that were at least as long as the first set all together. It was probably my favorite show of the summer after the flaming lips at berkfest or PB at toad\'s.

I was Thom Yorke\'s spotlite guy last nite. He is so energetic. It was my 1st time seeing these guys. IMHO,they make great albums, live they need work. I only got into them maybe 5 years ago and love the newer work. The songs they played off Hail to the Thief were absolutely insane!!! I have a bunch of friends that were working also who r INTO this band and they were blown away by the chances being taken during the show. Songs from KID A were torn down and recreated in an torrid cyclone of sound.
The lighting was crazy:) I love to see live shows and for never seeing thse guys I thought overall it was probably worth what people paid . If I knew the music better I would post a setlist. Suffice it to say, the same show is played except the choice to start the encore is a choice of 3 songs. If this band ever decided to open up ANY of their songs, I think many people would be surprised @ what came out.
Thom Yorke is a wiggin\' tripper!
