Note the exclusion of “Karma Police” and “Paranoid Android”. But we got “Street Spirit”! We had section 201 Row G seats which were great; we were pretty much had a clear straight view of Johnny Greenwood. I left with a newfound impression of him, as I watched him more than Thom Yorke, and he was brilliant and the stuff he was doing was magnetic.
Shirts were $40, so I didn’t buy one (the shirt was half the price of the ticket, when you think about it). But it was awesome, nonetheless.
In honour of a great band and a great concert, I give you a great fan video for the song “The Gloaming”. It’s probably made its rounds, but I can’t resist posting it here.
