Radiohead

Radiohead was touring behind the album In Rainbows that was released in October of the previous year as a pay-what-you-want-download. It was a ballsy move. Not only did it pay off but advanced overall control of material for all artists.

To be completely honest this is another of those shows I simply do not remember much of. Not because I drank too much but because it is just not that memorable to me. Maybe it is because I did not have the super anticipation of seeing them like I did the first time I saw them a little over two years before this for free. Who knows? What I do know is Donna and I were able to get pretty good seats in Section 103 which was on the opposite side of the stage as the masterful maniac Jonny Greenwood. What I also know is my excitement peaked at the end of their first encore when they played three of my favorite Radiohead tunes in a row that they had left out last time around starting with “Just.”

SETLIST: 15 Step, Airbag, There There, All I Need, Nude, Talk Show Host, Where I End and You Begin, Weird Fishes/Arpeggi, The Gloaming, Faust Arp, How to Disappear Completely, Reckoner, Optimistic, Jigsaw Falling Into Place, Pyramid Song, Climbing Up the Walls, Bodysnatchers, House of Cards, You and Whose Army?, Just, Paranoid Android, Street Spirit (Fade Out), Videotape, Lucky, Everything in Its Right Place
