Ah yes they're headlining the John Peel, aren't they?

[Woffy]

Just had a look on one of the Radiohead forums.

Apart from making this place look like the Philosophy and Sarcasm Reference Section of the British Library, they don't seem to have a fuckin' scooby what's going on either.

There's some at-length whining going on though RE: LP9, as expected.

Opening up I think. On before Slayer

Just listened to In Rainbows again, Jigsaw Falling Into Place is very nice isn't it? And videotape after it, very nice indeed. It's been a slow burn, whereas Kid A clicked from listen 1, but I'm beginning to really get into it.

They have to be doing something in the UK this summer, don't they? Just please deliver us from Adele!

Yeah it's them, Sigur Ros and Catfish & the Bottlemen. The holy trinity.

Radiohead on John Peel, Slayer on the Park, LCD Soundsystem on Other, Sigur Ros on West Holts. the Friday night clusterfuck continues

Jigsaw falling into place is my favourite on In rainbows.

I have gone back to Ok Computer recently. Like an old friend it is like I heard it yesterday.

It's all gonna collapse in on itself and cause a massive fucking supernova resulting in Adele on the Pyramid. For hours.

I bought Amnesiac and OK Computer last week but haven't got round to listening to either yet. Emmy The Great and Anderson .Paak's new albums, combined with the fact I saw Joanna Newsom on Tuesday means that I've been stuck in a hole of not being able to stop listening to those three all week, only just peeped my head out for some B52s and Radiohead this afternoon.

I interviewed Emmy The Great once at the Wedgewood Rooms then gave her a lift to the train station after her set.

Very, very switched on savvy woman.

A real talent. Can't believe she isn't more popular / lauded.

Amnesiac is a strange one... I am not often in the mood for it. It's the radiohead album I listen to the 2nd least (after Pablo Honey) - but if Im in the mood, it can be a great listen. Pyramid Song is a definite highlight. It took me a while to appreciate it.

Exactly the same for me. Don't think I'll ever really listen to Pablo all the way through again, but I'm gonna give Amnesiac a few more blasts. That and KOL (to a much lesser extent) have never clicked for me.

Only got into them properly around 2010 which is bizarre considering they're one of my top 5 favourite bands of all time. I saw them at Leeds in 09 when I didn't really know their tunes so couldn't appreciate them too much. Years down the line when I look at that set list it makes me sick, as the only other time I've seen them live the set list was pretty terrible. Would love to turn back time and watch them in their In Rainbows tour. Mate of mine went to the one in Amsterdam. Insanely good set list.

no setlist that had (Nice Dream), A Wolf at the Door and Morning Bell on it could be considered terrible, along with all the In Rainbows songs they played. definitely not a setlist for non-Radiohead fans (the swarms of people leaving proved that) but i thought it was fantastic

I have only seen them once (the KOL tour). Absolutely fantastic.

I listened to Amnesiac about a fortnight ago and loved it, but I could feel differently another time.

I've just seen a picture of the crowd for the 2011 Park appearance. Probably taken from The Crow's Nest it's insane how big that crowd is.

No I agree. I mean it makes me sick that I look back on the set list knowing I didn't appreciate them/know them at the time, it was a superb set. The only time I've seen them since was at London 02 few years back and the set list was pretty underwhelming. Well, it was the night I went, the night before was better! They played Airbag which I'm gutted they didn't the following night

A supermassive blackhole perhaps?

There'll be more than one giant hole headlining the Pyramid over the weekend.

I'll be happy at this point with some LCD, Peej and giving NO a try. And hopefully some decent stuff on WH & the Park to provide some welcome clash headaches.

Going solo from our group last year on the Saturday at the Park was a terrific evening; Staples > Spiritualized > Jon Hopkins then Arcadia and then a random bar chatting with randoms 'til 4am was ace.

I do think there will be a surprise act like The Libertines last year. That does seem like a weird time for a possible Radiohead performance. But maybe it will work if it happens again and is them precisely because it'd be a weird time for them to play.

I just think that depends on what type of setlist RH have planned. If they want to blast through their new album then I can't see a Libertines style TBA slot being realistic. It will go down like a fart in church to a huge Pyramid crowd.

How do you have Emmy's new album already? iTunes says it's not released 'til Friday.

If they play that slot, we have no way of knowing what they'll do until they play ofcourse, so I remain both hopeful that they play somewhere at the festival and optimistic that if they do, they play some of their most well known songs. Having said that, I would love to hear some new stuff too. I've always found them to be an exciting and innovative band to see live. Just really hope they play!

[CaledonianGonzo]

The 'Holy moly our headliner's pulled, out last minute panic to find a replacement' slot is only a year old, but it already feels like a Glastonbury institution.

This bloke at work wrote a fucking massive long email and distributed it to loads of people complaining how we weren't following company external communications procedures and listing a 30 point manifesto of what we were doing wrong. It finished with a rant about everyone's poor standard of grammar and how he was the only one who did things proper, like.

And the smug fuck signed off with:

"So those of you who think you're doing it properly - au contraire. That's how it SHOULD be done.

Viola!"

 

C***. Not sure that's relevant to anything. But I'm bored. As you were.
