Great night, although my wife was so tired she nodded off despite the bass blowing your guts out ( we were on row B at the front and next to the woofers…). Hot day, and end of a long weekend.
The graphics arsed up during Computer World, and started showIng Boing… boom… the band played on either oblivious or hoping no one would know.
To my relief they did play it at the end and made sure everyone could see they really were doing something with those desks.
Robots was superb
I would love to know what each desk had on it, and what the members really did with the equipment and foot pedals.
For 2nd year students they were bloody good - word and delivery perfect (not easy when you’re not reading from a radio script) and they sang some of it very sweetly indeed too.
I’d still give a tooth or two to be have been in on this though
we were seriously impressed by them at the Albert Hall, who knows what each does at those consoles, but they were brilliant. The acoustics and the sound in the Albert Hall are excellent.
Radiohead, Manchester last nite.
Watched Glastonbury on the telly & was a bit underwhelmed. But last night the band were no other word for it, perfection, the set list was inspired and Thom Yorke actually enjoyed himself.
Crap drive to Manchester. Hotel mega bucks. Taxis outrageous.
Unsuitable venue. Huge queues due to full body searches (thank you security man for looking the other way at the vodka) and a cricket ground that does not make a great venue for a gig (think I was stood at silly mid off or long leg)
Today I’m bollocksed, poorer and getting over a hang over.
It was however, totally. fucking. unmissable.
