Radiohead touring in 2016

[yaniv297]

They seem to be happier to dive into their back catalog a bit. I guess we can expect Just and Fake Plastic Trees to be resurrected soon.

Amsterdam 2 is still the best setlist by far. Lucky, How to Disappear, Street Spirit, Talk Show Host! Stuff dreams are made of. Also, it didn't include any obvious stinker like the Gloaming, Magpie or Tinker. (Give Up the Ghost is the closest one, but it's still much better than those).

[Hugh Jass]

I am so hyped for Friday. Cannot remember the last time I looked forward to a gig this much.

All I can say is they best play there there on Thursday. If they don't I demand a refund, Creep or no Creep

Here's how TLW sounded today. Sounds like they could still work on that one.

So AMSP was their nearly-best album two weeks ago and now Desert Island Disk and Tinker Tailor are unwelcome on the set list and they can't play too many off of it in sequence either.

But yeah I think "Amsterdam 2" looks an absolutely phenomenal setlist. Could barely pick a better one.

Yeah well, 9 out of 11 isn't that shabby! Especially compared to TKOL, where only 2-3 of the album 8 songs (or 10, if you count Staircase and Daily Mail) were welcome. Even In Rainbows had House of Cards which was always quite boring!

Burn the Witch, Decks Dark, Ful Stop, Identikit, The Numbers and Present Tense could all be show highlights. TLW too when they nail it live. That's pretty great.

Looks like 'Just' was on the setlist for today, in Creep's spot. So we can probably expect it to appear in one of the next shows as well.

It is a bit, for a Radiohead album. And also for people that aren't the spawn of Satan, with yer Daily Mail trashing.

Can't get on with piano TLW at all - seemed particularly poor tonight as well. Wonder if the acoustic one will ever get a run out again.

The lack of love for TKOL here upsets me (it doesn't really, but you know). 

Not listened to the live video, but the new album version of True Love Waits has grown on me massively. The album is alright, but I spend most of it just looking forward to the last track, which is stunning.

Think I've just properly enjoyed it for the first time actually, out walking as the sun comes up is a good way to listen.

Yeah at first I wasn't sold on the new version of True Love Waits, but as time has gone on it's now definitely in my top few tracks on the album. It may have helped that I never listened to the old version due to only having the studio albums and the odd standalone release.

Does ME have some kind of a speech impediment or something? He seems to be pausing  in a strange way a lot in that video. I can't remember him previously ever sounding like that.

In my experience, he's always a bit different in his manner when he's thinking more about what he might be saying, and he's also not the most-confident of public speakers (he's just a farmer, don't forget).

It's something he often does when speaking to me, double-checking the words in the head before they come out of his mouth, to try and ensure he doesn't say something he shouldn't say. His more-normal conversations have a smoother flow.

Why? It's not like every word will be examined in detail for clues on an internet messageboard is it?!

He's far from that.

Hi Neil, sorry to pester but I didn't manage to draw an answer from you in the relevant thread.

The BMTH info you mentioned yesterday about the position you had them down for being wrong - was the info that they aren't playing Sunday Other Stage or that they specifically aren't headlining it? As, to me, the former would suggest Sunday JP headliners whilst the latter would suggest Sunday Other subs.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Those setlists make me very upset. 

Gutted I cant go to the Roundhouse.

 

Do A Fecking tour

Do fecking Glastonbury

[reflekting]

I thoroughly enjoy Tinker Tailor, it seems to get far too much unfair criticism. It's definitely in my top 4 from AMSP along with Burn The Witch, Identikit and Decks Dark. 

[snailcheeks]

All, where can I listen to In Rainbows as it is not on spotify. Lost my old download. Cheers 

[home to you]

+1 for Tinker Tailor.

Maaan I need to remember that this thread contains setlist spoilers!

In his head and in his manner, he's just that and only that.

He's a farmer thrown into a different world by circumstances rather than ambition, and while he can cope with it he's not entirely comfortable with it and has to adjust his manner as a result.

The difference between Michael and someone like Melvin Benn is big - tho it's also clear that Melvin's head is also double-checking what he might say before he says it, but it all works much faster as its his normal thing.

If a convo with Michael wanders into something about the farm, everything about how he speaks changes.

Aye, I've noticed that.

If you compare how he speaks when he's talking about new infrastructure on the site, or the dairy farm itself, or talking about festivals of the past, to how he talks when he's speaking about future festivals, or the line-up - there's definitely a lot more deliberation over words from Michael. 

And he's also 81 this year...

The answer is: I'm not entirely sure, in part because I'm not entirely sure now that I took what was said to me in the right way.

I was told I had BMTH wrong, and I took that as being wrong day when I've since realised it might have been wrong stage.... and your question now also throws in wrong position.

I've since tried to get clarity about it, but haven't had a reply.

Fair enough, thanks for the reply

What's the latest thoughts on Radiohead playing Glastonbury then? I only dip in here intermittently and there's too much to sift through
