Similar to Park back in (was it 2011?). Will be very cool to see the new stuff. But a full 2 hours headline set with maybe 30-40 mins of new album would be even better. This. A million times over.

jparx Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I think there's every chance they do a secret slot this year and headline next year. New album in full this year, career spanning 2 1/2 hr set next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 rumours beginning to circulate that they're gonna release the video in segments throughout the day. if you go to http://www.radiohead.com/deadairspace the witch video is now at the front but if you hover over the left side the bird video is there too http://imgur.com/H4CmLDS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chawk Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Sounds so good! It's great they're gonna be using Jonny's orchestral talents. However Neil's renewed hope and me still ticketless after messing up in the resale has made me feel a bit shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffieldlady Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Hopefully it happens when I'm done with work (looking for Radiohead news whilst attempting to work) the month of May / June is usually focused on Glastonbury acts. I think bands can learn a lot from building up the anticipation for an album release. This is exciting. Oh, I hope it's brilliant. I also somehow hope a Roundhouse ticket falls out the sky and lands on me as the chosen one.. I guess one is more likely than the other!

dingbat2 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 If they are playing then it surely has to be an announced set on a bigger stage? I just cant see anything else, especially because they have been strongly rumoured to play for so long. Social media has moved on a lot since the secret sets of 2011 – not least because of the good peeps from these forums - as soon as anyone gets a whiff of where and when then it will be all over the interweb/twitterspher. I just can’t see that it could be kept secret these days.. It would be chaos/dangerous if they were to play a smaller stage. It has to be a sub slot on the Pyramid a la Libs last year.

E.g Guy Garvey agrees for him to be billed, but Radiohead actually plays. Which leaves the obvious question, why the fuck would the smaller act agree to such a thing? I can't think of a better way to keep it secret, but it doesn't seem terribly likely to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that will happen is either people find out and you get the chaos/dangerous crowd which I don't think they could risk anymore. If noone works it out then they play to a tiny (probably unappreciative) crowd. Even if they did keep it secret, then as soon as they play the first note, then it will be all over social media, and you would get an abosolute stampede of people legging it to that stage. That would be even more dangerous than if it was announced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
