not from pablo, but I truly love nice dream. Always have! Especially the beefed up live version. Wonderful stuff.

 

 

I don't know if I'm comfortable with you sounding happy / excited instead of outraged Russy.  Would you mind calling me a c*nt just to restore balance please x

Just finished Pablo Honey, currently on High and Dry.  Personally I still love them both, but I freely admit to being massively nostalgic in my musical tastes.  Listened to them both a LOT when I was a student.

PH was always going to struggle with what came after, but I think that says more about how good they became than how bad they started. You, Thinking About You, Prove Yourself, I Can't are all great songs for me.

Proper excited

My first Radiohead gig was the headlining show at T in the Park in 1996, the encore was Thom solo doing an acoustic Thinking About You, it was fantastic. You also sounded huge at Glasto in 1997. If I wasn't desperate for them to close Glasto 2017 with How To Disappear Completely then I'd love them to play Blow Out too.

Waiting for William Hill to pay up on my first winning bet

What odds did you get?

And what was your stake, if you don't mind my asking?

[home to you]

Awesome to see it confirmed now . Haven't been this excited for a headliner since my first year (Arcade Fire). I just hope I don't over indulge like I did for that one

Can't wait to see what their first 2017 setlist looks like now... they've been pulling out a few surprises lately!

That slowed down live version of Blow Out is pretty special, I'd love to hear it properly there. In a dream world, it's the main set closer then, HTDC encore 1 closer & finally Talk Show Host & Street Spirit encore 2 closer.

One slot down and the lineup's 100x better than this year's so far.

Announce the Roses as Sunday headliners next and I'll put it at 200x better.

Muse and Coldplay to Radiohead and The Stone Roses. Can't complain, can you?

Have you been an ironic Muse fan this entire time?

[GrowlerPhil]

They missed a trick by not filming The Numbers video there instead. 

Tight close up for first few minutes then a shot from the cherry picker to reveal the bear and then a pan across to reveal the Pyramid. Song ends and Thom says see you in June.

Win's a win!  I hope you won't begrudge me if I don't wish you so much luck on Sheeran

[watsonjm]

Ok.  Now its a done deal.  Never been a RH fan but will give them another go

Can someone point me in the direction of a greatest hits list?  Bare in mind this is for a new listener.

They've got a 'Best Of' album, which has all their main hits pre In Rainbows which might be worth listening to to get you into them. But then you miss out on all of In Rainbows which you have to listen to.

Depends who's on elsewhere.

I imagine they'll have one of those rap singers or EDM types on the Other to appeal to da yoof.
