What's more, I've genuinely no idea what he meant, let alone agreeing with it. @Woffy, did you mean because George Martin didn't produce most of it, or because they didn't play as a band much on those songs? I'm fairly baffled! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 So, 12 days until the first show of 2017. What do you think will be the opener this year? Burn the Witch? Something else? Will they even have a staple opener on this tour? If it's Burn the Witch, the million dollar question is have they addressed the obvious issues with it from a live perspective?

jparx Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) There's nothing worse than when a band comes on stage and everyone is stood around going "have they started yet?" That's the impression I get with Burn the Witch. Edited March 18, 2017 by jparx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it to mean the latter - Ringo left and came back so Macca played drums on a couple etc etc. But who knows what Woffy ever means? Sorry was a bit trollied myself. But yeah. Kinda the end of that perfect 'band as a gang of mates' era. As a Beatles nut it kinda loses something undefinable cos of that. I still haven't explained it very well Do I often not make sense then?

Robofish Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 So tempted to do a full Beatles ranking. But White Album is second to Sgt Pepper for me. I think I'm quite uncool. And AMSP > In Rainbows & OKC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) Speaking of which, I just got high (edgy) and listened to OK Computer and it may have shot back up to my number one after being dislodged for some time. Listening to Lucky now and it's the best thing ever. edit: although maybe I'd need to listen to the other two high to make it fair.

Honestly mate its almost like I'm annoyed I don't like it. I have tried so hard, and one day it might click. It may well do at Glasto when I hear some of it live, wouldn't be surprised and I'd be more than happy to have my mind changed. Like a few tracks, don't get me wrong, it just seems so far from the brilliance of other albums to me. I am genuinely looking forward to hearing how it comes across live, though.

I tried to give myself a rule of not listening to any Radiohead for a while (cos I was getting far too excited since the announcement). Had big random playlist on shuffle in the car, Lucky came on. Basically cried. A fucking masterpiece. If I hear that or Airbag at G, I will have a breakdown. Even Android probably.

Lubic Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 That moment at Manchester 08, where they came out for a 3rd encore and started up Lucky, is possibly my favourite ever gig moment. Glorious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
