Radiohead touring in 2016

[grayfitz]

Next song is going to be the make or break if they're doing the new album in full or not.

little disappointed as strings are such an integral part of the album, but still sounds fantastic

yep. wonder if they're doing the album in full or just starting it off that way

I imagine they're just opening with a couple from the new album, like they did a lot when touring TKOL

I bet arcadefireman is stood right behind Dan Dow and his phone held aloft.

He's probably whispering to Dan Dow that he's also seeing them tomorrow night and then in London next week as well

initial reaction is it sounds empty, but i don't know if i'm just used to the other version. would have to hear the live version a few more times to say really

Remember, everything is going to sound a lot thinner since it's being broadcast from a mobile phone.

[FloorFiller]

tbh without the full orchestra an album in full set would seem a little daft - the full orchestra setup was the one thing that made the album in full thing seem like it would work. reckon they'll move on to some older stuff next

edit: well i was wrong

sounds like decks dark to me

[PastRecedes]

So what do we think, are they playing the album in full?

[dingbat2]

I think they could only get away with playing the new album in full if they had a full strings section, which they don't. Its going to be too downbeat for too long otherwise 

So they will be playing other stuff too I reckon

Thought Burn the Witch sounded immense. Seeing them in July, so decided to turn the stream off as I don't want to cheapen the experience at all.

Next song is make or break if they are playing the full album. Desert Island Disk is one you'd imagine they would leave out.

Do you think people watching the streams would, in a different context, also complain about people at gigs with their phones out?

Decks Dark sounds mega. Best part of the show so far.

[PastRecedes]

Decks Dark is sounding incredible

[FloorFiller]

holy shit this bit sounds ace

[grayfitz]

The stage design looks like a scaled back version of TKOL tour right? With screens focusing on each of them and effects overlayed.

Maybe of interest, not sure if already posted 

[PastRecedes]

yeah album in full it seems

[FloorFiller]

album in full it is!

[dj_tim]

So they are playing the whole album then

[jparx]

Album in full it is! 

Man, their festival setlists are going to be fascinating.

[GlastoSimon]

If this increases the chance of album set at Glastonbury this year, followed by headline set next year, I am all for it.

[FloorFiller]

bodes well for a longer than usual set at these shows. new album first hour - everything else hopefully another hour and a half

[Mash011]

Hmm, maybe I've dodged a bullet by going Berlin over Roundhouse - surely they won't do this at festivals?

That's not out of not liking the new album, but for the first time I see them I'd like something a bit more career-spanning ideally.
