Radiohead?

[gmb1992]

Unfortunately I won't be going to glasto this year But I'm interested to hear what people think of Radiohead being rumoured for the Saturday night headliner ?

I've seen them at Reading and they were great but they seem to draw strong opinions.

See below Vice article:

They aren't rumoured for Glastonbury this year.

[Yesiamaduck]

Are they rumored? I dont recall hearing that

I think there was an article somewhere (possibly Gigwise) saying that as the line up poster matches some of the Kid A artwork, it's obviously Radiohead. Load of bollocks though, it's just Stanley Donwood happens to be the artist behind both.

Just a few articles you can find about them, not to mention the fact they said they are planning to make a new album this summer.

Just throwing it out there.

are you sure you didnt just want to link a story that insults radiohead fans?

More chance of Ball Deep headlining. The Saturday night headliner is Metallica or Prince.

I think Radiohead are tentatively talking about another album, though, so I suppose next year's not out of the question.

if they're not booked come their next album and tour then some bullshit is going on. as russy always says, it's ridiculous that the songs from In Rainbows have yet to be played on the Pyramid

[LondonTom]

There is vague connection but we know its not them.

I reckon Thom just enjoys Glastonbury to much to be bothered with the hassle of a proper show tbh Fairplay to him! I wouldn't want to have to "work" Glastonbury either.

Love Radiohead and find that article hilarious; It's so OTT it just seems like tongue in cheek or at least bait for someone to bite at. Kind of reminded me a bit of this http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Radiohead (which I also can't help but find funny)

Wouldn't be surprised if Thom did another DJ set again in the naughty corner this year.

[russycarps]

Agreed 100%

Though the less King of Limbs material the better...

[nickharley]

have you heard king of limbs live? It's 10000 times better than the studio album. Lotus flower is as good as anything they've ever done I reckon.

[russycarps]

Lotus Flower is so good live. I think I remember them starting with it in Manc, was such a good way to start a gig. Agree the the King of Limbs stuff is way better live.

[jeffie]

It's been quiet without a Radiohead Thread.......

[Superscally]

King of Limbs stuff couldn't be any worse live unless they killed someone on stage.

[russycarps]

I wouldnt expect an interpol fan to like it

[Superscally]

I'm a big Radiohead fan, and not just stopping at OK Comupter - I probably listen to Amnesiac more than any of their albums...but King of Limbs is w*nkery for w*nkery's sake.

[Gucci Piggy]

I kind of get the Radiohead stereotype based on their music, but I'm an 18 year old at a standard college in Sc**thorpe and every Radiohead fan I know just tends to be the big music fans at college, and they're all normal, cool guys, into all of your alternative 90s stuff - MBV, Pixies, whatever. It's the same with the adult Radiohead fans I know as well, so I'm not sure if the stereotype actually holds true with anyone. Still find it amusing, though.

Edit: Oh and the King of Limbs songs were fucking amazing the other year. Saw them at the MEN; Lotus Flower blew my dick off.
