  1. I recently came across a live recording of Let Down from Bonn, Biskuithalle Nov 2nd, 1997.

    Never knew there was a recording.

    Can anyone given me a hint where to look for a full recording of my very first Radiohead show?

    Thanks in advance!

    edit: found it!

  2. New tour on sight next November-December
  3. Quite complex system to get tickets when you are in a foreign country but at least they try to stop bots and no dynamic prices!
  4. This ticket thing is the next level Thom Yorke depressing crap… I can already see some shows ending in the middle of it because someone yells them to play Creep

    One of his own shows ended abruptly because someone questioned his stance on Palestine - seems they're easily upset when sitting on the fence, in fact, 'Sitting on the fence' maybe a good title for their next album

    The show did not abruptly end. He came back for an encore once the heckler finished with his tirade.

    (BTW, I am very much pro-Palestine)

    But he still walked off because he couldn't face the 'heckler' who was not threatening to him whatsoever and who should have been able to question his stance - free speech and all that

    I am absolutely a Radiohead 'music' fan - been to loads of gigs and have loads of bootlegs etc even a first release run of Creep - but Thom disappointed me with his 'sensitivity' on this

    He should have bigger balls

    And if people ( not you mate ) say 'politics should not come into music' then don't fcukin listen to Radiohead OR U2 because politics affects all of our lives every single day
  8. You are there to see the show, not to spout and shout nonsense at a musician. This was not a political debate, this was a concert.

    But I am sure the ‘heckler’ was happy with the social media cookies he got while doing absolutely nothing for the people of Gaza and the West Bank. Kudos.

    Rubbish - you are also there as a person

    If Thom suddenly announced that he supports Hamas then I'm sure a lot more people would've heckled

    And ANY voice is better than no voice - he got attention drawn to this issue which can only be a good thing

    Sticks and stones

    Except Thom Yorke does not support Hamas. Thom Yorke is a musician from Oxford who never made any statements of supporting the Netanyahu government and their evisceration of Gaza, but most importantly - he is a completely irrelevant factor to a 100-year-old geopolitical conflict.

    If you want to protest against a concert or a musician - fine, there are ways to do it. If you want to disrupt a show and become the centre of attention that nobody had asked for at show that people have paid for to see to gain some points on social media, you are a heckler.

    Go and find ways to support the Palestinians. This is not one.

    As somebody who has witnessed the horrors of occupation first-hand, this kind of stuff is infuriating.
  11. I do not live in Gaza, I do not live in Tel Aviv.
    From my armchair it would be too easy to say "I'm pro-A or I'm pro-B", "Radiohead are bastards to play there or there"

    I watched the spanish cycling race today and what a shame everyday to support Palestine by breaking down the race.
    It's exactly the same for a concert, it's not the best way to support a cause and I guess it produces exactly the opposite it deserves the cause

    By the way good luck everyone to get tickets

    As I said ANY voice is better than none

    YOU don't want to go to a show and be 'upset' by a heckler then get a thicker skin

    I am TOTALLY surprised that you find this infuriating when it draws attention to a cause

    But maybe everyone should act and do as you wish and not use their own free will to voice their opinion
