Ready for my Special Edition of AMSP. I've almost cancelled that order so many times since May. Almost $100 on me album seems ridiculous, especially when I became a fan two days before the album released. But when Burn the Witch starts... I get chills every time.
Just a little more than a month now. What the hell took you so long to get into Radiohead though? Have you gone back and listened to their discography yet?
I'm seeing Radiohead at Lollapalooza on Friday. I have never seen them before, and I only know a couple of their songs. They are my girlfriend's favorite band, so she is super excited about it. I'm expecting to love it!
Still chipping away and listening through. I just never bothered to give them a listen, but the hype behind AMSP and the lead up to it hooked me hard.
Listen to moon shaped pool and in rainbows on repeat if you don't get to fully enjoy those songs live you'll regret it forever
Also make sure you listen to OK Computer over and over again. Then move on to Kid A. But In Rainbows first. Then Ok Computer. Then The King of Limbs. Then Kid A. That's assuming you've already listened to A Moon Shaped Pool.
Took the bus from Boston at 7:30. Got in the box office line at 12:30. Did not move until 5. Got a ticket right next to the stage. And they played Let Down again. And they played fucking Creep. Amazing.
Holy hell these last 2 shows were amazing. Performance has been flawless. Now off to Montreal for show #3! Cannot wait to see what they pull out
Their setlists for MSG and Lollapalooza were insane! What a band. So happy for everyone who's seen them this year, so many surprises, but I'm also slightly jealous!
What an incredible week of Radiohead. Every set was masterful. Getting Exit Music yesterday was definitely amazing and unexpected. Cannot wait for these guys to make it back into town. I saw their set at Lollapalooza was being broadcast last night. Any one know if that was ripped by any chance? Would love a great live recording of their show. Are there any other great live sets that I should check out?
guys. I am just now finding out about ANOTHER Radiohead rarity/bonus track. In fact, that entire compilation has some great unknown tracks on it. Damien Rice, Coldplay, Gorillaz, and many more. Definitely worth checking out.
Since I'm diving into Compilations looking for songs I didn't know existed, I just stumbled across a studio version of Damien Rice covering Creep. The Flaming Lips covering Knives Out. Very cool. EDIT: Here's that Damien Rice cover Here's The Flaming Lips covering "Knives Out"
Do any of you guys have some bsides/rarities/awesome live shows that you can share? I'm doing a little research on my own but it seems like a lot of the links and stuff are down since they were uploaded years ago
I've got just about every b-side/rarity released. The only live material I have is what has been released on Deluxe Editions and the like.
If it's not too inconvenient to share I would love to listen to it As for live shows - I did just find a Dropbox with the Lollapalooza video. Sounds great. Cannot wait to listen to that in full later
I have Bonnaroo 2006 and Lollapalooze 2008. The Bonnaroo show is considered one of their best and is a professionally mixed soundboard recording. I can share them later this week if no one else beats me to it.
I appreciate Radiohead so much. I'd say, in terms of greatness (in a general sense) they're comparable to the Beatles. Maybe that's just me being romantic but that's how much I love their music.
