The Radiohead appreciation thread that's also a Radiohead poll

Radiohead to drop live songs from Hail To The Thief album. Seems to have come from nowhere. Was this the real reason why the band registered a LLC about 6 months ago?

Based on this thread I revisited OK Computer and Let Down specifically over the past week or so.  What an amazing song that is, I never had such an appreciation for it as I do now, for whatever reason...  It's been on regular rotation since then...

But I still find a lot of their stuff a bit odd and hard to embrace though...

That speaks of your personal preference for more straight up/mainstream sounding stuff as opposed to more experimental/alt stuff.

That in mind you would IMO likely enjoy these from other Radiohead records...

I started researching flights and Hotels for 2 of the dates radiohead are due to play.

I could get return flights to london for £59 all in
2 nights in a decent hotel for about £230
Then i realised, chances of getting tickets for one gig, let alone two, are slim to zero

You never know your luck - register and see!

I just saw that each person, lucky enough to get a code, will be able to get up to 4 tickets, to ONE show. So i guess i could try and get 2 tickets for say the monday, then hopefully trade the spare for a ticket to the tuesday show.

Or i could stay at home, im my flat, where im nice and safe and happy haha

Tickets for London are £85 for GA. So, all things considered, pretty decent. I really hope the organisers are ahead of the touts etc and the tickets dont appear on the secondary market

Hopefully not

From site:


"Can I buy tickets from other sites?

No. Please be aware that tickets or unlock codes that are offered for sale on reseller sites or sold above face value will be monitored and subject to cancellation."

welp, ill be the first to cram my foot down my effin throat. ive been going on about how they're never coming back and if you didnt seem em pre-2018 you're effed.

i was wrong. but i did see them in 2012 so this isnt a "dammit they arent coming to America <yet>??!?" post.

I am into experimental music but not the Radiohead variety I guess 

I do know some of those tunes but thanks for sharing, I will check out some of the others I have not heard

I reckon out of all their albums "The Bends" would likely be the one that resonates with you most
