    6. Street Spirit

    9. Reckoner
    10. How to Disappear Completely


    Nice list. Thanks for posting as I hadn't seen it. Many of the essentials are there. Nice to see "Let Down" on it. I really don't understand why they band almost never plays it live anymore. Reckoner is great, too. Still, I wouldn't have been surprised if Just, Lucky, Idioteque, or Pyramid Song were on there...and I will always have a soft spot for songs like Planet Telex, Airbag, Optimistic, and I MIght Be Wrong. I'm not sorry that "High and Dry" didn't make the list. The band doesn't like it and neither do I really.

    I think I'll listen to some Radiohead today!
  2. Let Down is amazing, i cant pinpoint what makes it so good but theres sumthing about it that haunts me, in a good way.

    Agree completely, one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking and joyful songs by them <3
  4. on the road from February to November in 2012

    NME
  5. Interesting. At least they've warned us that there be a lot of material from KoL...which is understandable, I suppose. I wonder if they'll hit Toronto - and play Let Down?
  6. Great news. I'll definitely try to make it to a show.

    And yes, Let Down is a great song. I'd probably vote it my favorite Radiohead song, and probably the song that caused me to love their music.. Just the way it builds seems to keep building as it goes along is amazing. And I almost like it that they rarely play it live for some reason. It's like a precious jewel that rarely gets taken out in public, and it kind of makes it more special to me that way. However, I would never object to them playing it at the concert I attend.
  7. if the Roseland dates are a preview of what it will be honestly i'm not so excited .. but this is another band of big surprises so ... who knows
    good thing it should be an indoor tour .. in Europe at least
  8. I'd consider attending if only because I am mad at myself for missing the Toronto show back in August of 2008....and maybe, just maybe, I'd gain some aprreciation for KoL by hearing it live. I've giiven it three "chances" since it was released and I just can't love it.

    And just like everyone else, I too want to heaar some hits from the 1990's which they might avoid!!!!!
  9. in 2008 i got my 2 dates in Milan .. and 2 very awesome sets .. those are the Radiohead i'd like.
    i'm completely with you about the King
  10. NIce. TWO shows! You must have got a lot of everything from their back-catalogue. I'll have to "research" to see what you saw.

    I had seen them in 1997 and 2003...I've watched them play many of the essentials but missed out on seeing/hearing them perform songs like Optimistic, Morning Bell, Pyramid Song, and Wolf at the Door - songs I have yet to hear live. Those ones are like my "Bad" of U2.

    Nice.Ive seen Radiohead many times live.Last time was here in NYC,All Points West Festival,August 2008.Reckoner was the opener.My favorite show I attended, was Warrington,England.10.03.2000.I spent alot of time in Europe that year.They played Victoria Park,this was the day Kid A was released.This is still my favorite gig Ive seen from Radiohead.I was spellbound, to say the least.First time hearing those songs,the National Anthem was insane.

    I also saw PJ in Barcelona (05.25.00) and Milan (06.22.00).The Milan show,IMO,is one of PJs best ever.Italian crowd was amazing.Later that summer,I saw Oasis at Wembley(07.21.00).Hard to top those shows for me.Just wish I could have seen U2 that year in Europe.
