Radiohead announce US Dates

[weekapaug19]

A singleness of purpose yields great results indeed.  I\'m impressed by the amount of shows alot of people on this board get to.

ditto......and I thought I went to alot of shows

[wildcoyote]

Pfffffft.  I\'m headin the wrong direction bro.  As a matter of fact I should change my screen to CorporateCoyote, WeaksauceSelloutCoyote, or CrankyMcStickintheMud (oooh I like that one).

[Spacey]

fantastic show, though from the looks of the setlists, night one looks even better. no matter though, it was great. i really dug the new tunes too. highlights for me were the CUTW opener, the Planet Telex closer, There There, and Idioteque. wasn\'t big on ending with The Tourist, and i was really hoping for another song after it (considering it was only 10:50), but they were done, and the peck-sprint to the car was in full effect. managed to get right out, although we couldn\'t find 90 and just ended up getting on 93, but.. whatever..

wolfman was basically sitting in the same row as us in the next section over..

had a big time recording mishap last night. managed to smuggle all the gear in without a problem (no pat down whatsoever!), but while getting set up before radiohead came on, my damn Nomad wouldn\'t turn on! :mad: if it ain\'t one thing... i got over it pretty quick though, and enjoyed the hell out of the show. i\'m not too worried, since i\'m grabbing night 1 schoeps off dime right now.. though knowing my luck, i\'ll end up being the only would-be taper for last night.. :sigh:

slept about two and a half hours.. 45 minutes more sleep than i got after Pearl Jam night 1 Boston.. go tuesday!

Who\'s this "us" you speak of?  Cause I was 3 rows behind your wife, who you apparently don\'t sit with at shows.  (Actually, maybe you\'re on to something there...) When Li told me that you guys had seperate tickets it launched me into telling my buddy the story of how we left Li in the car for an entire Phish show when our foursome was 1 ticket short. rotfl  Good times.

The show was great.  Idioteque was my highlight, as it was at my first show 3 years ago.  Song translates fantastically live.  Climbing Up The Walls was a pretty ballsy opener I thought.  Not too rockin\', just a medium/mellow way to slide into action.  (Like The Breakfast opening with a mellow jam > Episode I, or Phish opening with Roggae.)  It may or may not have worked but it was certainly gutsy/not obvious.  This band does an incredible job of changing dynamics.  They can shift gears from hard stadium-rockers to ambient psychedelia to downright romantic ballads in the blink of an eye, and they have great tunes at all levels.  I really haven\'t seen or heard a band that could do this so well since Phish.  If Radiohead ever starting toying with some 8-12 minute jams they could romp over the jamband scene overnight.  Maybe they\'ll let loose at Bonnaroo, who knows.  But no need, their gig works as it is.  I wish we could see these guys more often.  Certainly one of the most interesting bands of our generation.

yeah, we had separate seats, but i called her when i got to my seat and told her to come over when the show started since there was plenty of room where i was. so we spent the whole show together.. she told me where you were sitting, and she was the one that pointed you out when i came over to say hi..

after getting shut out for the NY shows looking for pairs of tickets, i went for single tickets for the boston show(s), to make sure i got in the door..


oh, and let me just say that it was a great thing to be able to stand in front of 2 TVs with a ton of boston people and watch the yankees take a 13-2 lead over the red sox before radiohead even took the stage! when the yanks went up 8-2 in the 2nd, people kept walking by and squinting, all saying the same thing - "is that an 8". :lol: good times indeed.

[FrankZappa]

you both suck. So does my friend Mike who went last night. wish I got tickets. :mad: Ah, I can\'t be mad though. Radiohead never seems to fail. I completely agree with wolf on radiohead jamming though. They would be one of the best band ever if they would just open up a little, a segway here and there...

Whoa. I got everything in no problem but didn\'t bother running because my seat was all the way to the side and I knew someone else that had it. Then I get a call after the show that they didn\'t get it either.
