Lucky enough I got an unlock code, made it eventually to the waiting lobby at 9:45, straight into a queue at 10am (thinking to myself this is going well) 10:10 I get timed out, retry and same thing keeps happening. Presumed sold out for that day… oh well at least I’ll be at the valley that weekend to numb the pain !!

So you've been left high and dry.

Maybe the booking system crashes a lot because its algorithms are based on 2+2=5

Tonight’s the night. I still have fuck all   

Anyone got a spare or 2. Worth an ask.

The setlists for this tour look great. Apparently Let Down (best song on OKC) became a viral sensation on TikTok? Either way, seeing it opening the set or the encore is brilliant. Great to see so much HTTT involved as well. 2002-2003 is around when I first got into Radiohead, so that album will always resonate with me as I was a teenager when it came out. You could probably cut a couple of songs from it (cough the version of I Will from the album and the album version of The Gloaming cough--though The Gloaming was brilliant live back in the day, completely different vibe and tempo). But overall I think the album stands up. Hope those going have fun.

Its strange how peoples tastes are different.
I was reading a YT vid the other day of top albums of all time, and of the top 4, 2 were The Beatles and 2 were Radiohead - and i thought to myself i must be missing something re Radiohead as never really warmed to them, so i thought , well, lets have another listen to OKC, and .........after.... i still didnt like it !
Oh well, each to their own.

HTTT for me is their best album. I’m obsessed with them. The setlists from Madrid and Bologna are mad. 

Last night they did Fake Plastic Trees. Paranoid Android. There there. National Anthem. I’m so fucking frustrated. To the point I will end up paying over £500 to go now. I hate being ripped off.

The seating tickets (lower tier) are £215 per ticket, so the prices are insane 

if you have not been trying, keep trying the waste resale here

Via the link above there is 1 ticket free in block 115 right now (10:13) and they do keep popping up.

 Saw them last night. They played some bangers. We were quite far back but it was good, and with the a very nice crowd. Normally you get some nobheads at big gigs but didn't come across one.

Me and my brother are going tomorrow. The setlists people have put on Spotify are varied, but all brilliant (they have a lot of quality to chose from tbf). Should be a good night!

I saw them in Nimes many years ago in an amphitheatre, they played an amazing set (my favourite track back then was Talk Show Host and I was incredibly fortunate for them to play it). Anyway, the following night we sat at a bar nearby and listened to that set too, and it was about 50% different. I think that's fucking cool, they are not just trotting out a well-played set of crowd pleasers but seem to really enjoy playing what they feel like playing.

That’s how good they are. They ain’t basic one trick ponies like Oasis. I love em. Saw em in Glastonbury 97. Vic t park early 2000s. Just before In Rainbows at Hammersmith. Never fail to move me. Amazing musicians with a massive eclectic back catalogue they pick from.

Last night was absolutely superb. The music. The visuals. Just brilliant.
