I saw Radiohead last night.

[redqueen]

Best concert ever ever ever. Ever!

I'm still floatey and blissed out. They played the two songs I most wanted to hear (Everything In Its Right Place & A Wolf At The Door)... they were perfect.

Also I got Thom's & Colin's autographs and got to shake their hands and thank them for coming here to play, and tell them how very much I love the band.

Awesome, awesome, awesome night. Magical.

:loveya:


The set list (pretty sure it's complete):

[Danger Mouse]

1. A wolf at the door is the best radiohead song ever. EVER.

No question. :)
I also really love 'All I Need'...did they do that one?
I'm so jealous...

[redqueen]

4. They did All I Need first!

I should put the set list in there... thanks. :)

[Dr. Strange]

2. Wow.

Can I touch you?

That's so cool! I hope I get to see them in concert some day.

[redqueen]

5. I hope you do, too.

Words can't describe...

[LaraMN]

3. Ohhh! I saw them in '96!

You lucky girl!

:woohoo:

[redqueen]

7. Oh I would have loved to have seen them then...

I was never lucky enough to get tickets before... and never flush with cash enough to buy them after the scalpers got done buying them all. :P

I feel like very Lucky indeed. :)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

6. Nice!

[redqueen]

8. Nice x Infinity!

:7

[Starbucks Anarchist]

9. In Rainbows was a lot better than I thought it would be.

I'd say it's their best one since OK Computer.

[ghostsofgiants]

11. Did you check out AmpLive's In Rainbows remixes when I posted them?

If not, I think they'd be up your alley.

The Video Tapes remix with Del has to be one of the best hip-hop songs I've heard in a while.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

13. Yep, and that song was on my iPod last week.

Thanks. :hi:

[redqueen]

15. Everything they do is better than everything else anyone else does.

Fact.

:)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

17. Let's not go crazy here.

:P

[redqueen]

20. Too late! They are incapable of doing wrong AFAIC.

They are perfect.

Heh... I've loved them since Pablo Honey came out. NOBODY likes that one but me, I don't think.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

22. Probably the best mainstream rock group out there.

I think they'd be in my top 20 artists of all time, though. ;)

[redqueen]

25. 20?!

:(

Top 5. C'mon. :P

[Starbucks Anarchist]

27. I'm a jazz man.

Plus hip-hop, rock and country plus everything else, but jazz takes a lot of the top spots. :P

[redqueen]

29. Hah... well I can certainly understand that!

No shortage of greatness there.

I just can't see anything past the newness of Johnny G... or Thom's sublime vocals. They are magic. :)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

30. Have you heard the soundtrack for "There Will Be Blood"?

Johnny G. did it himself. I haven't listened to it yet, but I've heard it's excellent.

[redqueen]

32. WHAT?!

No, I hadn't heard that!

I'm watching that this weekend.

Thank you! :D

[Starbucks Anarchist]

33. Here's the AllMusic review: 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.

[Cant trust em]

21. I was really disappointed with Hail to the Thief. NT

[redqueen]

24. What?

But... that has some of their best stuff on it!

[Cant trust em]

28. I'll have to give it another go, but every time I've listened to it it's never really connected.

Whereas I liked OK Computer, Kid A, and In Rainbows instantly.

[redqueen]

31. If you do I hope you hear the goodness.

My favorites off that one: Sail To The Moon, Wolf At The Door, I Will, Myxomatosis, Where I End And You Begin, Drunken Punch Up At A Wedding, There There... oooh and Scatterbrain, that one is so good.

Hah... I love them all. :P

[ghostsofgiants]

40. It is indeed a killer album.

[ghostsofgiants]

10. I am insanely jealous.

They are playing in Toronto in August and a few of my friends are going. Lucky bastards.

[redqueen]

16. Yes... they are.

I hope you get to see them soon, if you haven't already.

[ghostsofgiants]

41. I've never seen them and I don't expect to any time soon, sadly.

[Parche]

12. Never Heard Of Them

:hi:

:hug:

[redqueen]

18. Oh yeah? Well they've never heard of you either!

So THERE!

:P

:hi:

[BarenakedLady]

14. I'm so jealous!

Sounds like a dream come true.

[redqueen]

19. It truly was, BNL.

Literally. :)

[Cant trust em]

23. I'm seeing them at this festival in San Francisco in August.

It's going to be a great weekend.

[redqueen]

26. Ooooh!

Black Mountain and Andrew Bird are the other artists there I'd most like to see.

Enjoy! :D

[Cant trust em]

34. If Wilco is on the lineup then that will always be my highlight

They're probably my favorite band.

[redqueen]

35. I have Yankee Hotel Foxtrot... and I love it.

But I can't seem to bring myself to buy anything else. I heard them perform a single off the new one on Letterman and some other shows, and I dunno... it just didn't grab me like I Am Trying To Break Your Heart did.

I love his voice though. Love love love. :)

[Cant trust em]

36. Tweedy's voice makes me feel calm, at home.

It's got a note of familiarity to it that reminds me of the feeling of getting to sleep in your own bed after a long vacation.

[IcyPeas]

37. "Reckoner" is my favorite song this month..... this year....

[redqueen]

38. It's one of the best on In Rainbows.

But then IMO there's *lots* of bests. :)

[Initech]

39. Nice! I cant wait to see Radiohead live.

Unfortunately that will not be coming until August.

[redqueen]

44. It's worth the wait.

Believe me. :)

[MrCoffee]

42. did Jonny get the tempo right? (warning: best live clip EVER)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX-fDKWGbRs

[redqueen]

43. He got everything right.

Well... I could have been happier with the ending of Videotape, but I'm not complaining.

Thanks... gotta run but I will enjoy watching that tomorrow. :)

[Blarch]

45. Going to see them in August at Lalapooluza(sp)

Can't wait. thanks for the tease. :hi:

[graywarrior]

46. Fantastic!

I'm still high on the Dylan concert Saturday night
