Argh, not only did they have to play Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal again, but they also don't have Low opening for them on that leg of the tour... sucky! Good thing they're so amazing live or I might be disappointed.

Although I am a huge fan of their music, Radiohead is not a band that I would pay to see live. I can't really explain why, I just don't think I could get into the Radiohead mood with all those other people distracting me.

One of the things I like most about Radiohead's live acts is that they're a band that isn't afraid to change things, even drastically, when they play songs live. When I saw them two years ago, for example, they played the opening bass line of The National Anthem backwards, which was cool as hell. They make much larger changes to songs than just that, though (for instance the live version of the Gloaming is extremely different from the album version) and generally I think they have a lot more energy live than they tend to on their albums. Plus they're good about playing rare songs and b sides, and I think that hearing Big Ideas, Lift, or the original version of Motion Picture Soundtrack would alone be worth the price of a ticket.

That said, I don't know much about your personal relationship to their music, so maybe none of that will make a difference.

But to me, Radiohead is one of the few bands that's good enough live that I'm willing to stand up for hours on end in a huge field in Montreal that has no shade and is disgustingly humid, where I can't even see the top of Thom's head because of all the tall assholes in the crowd, just so that I can hear them play.

I saw them the 13th of June at the Hultsfred festival here in Sweden. The consert was nice although I consider myself a fan.

They brought a whole lot of new material, so they weren't really trying to win the crowd by playing the oldie hits. They played the tremendous "Street Spirit which was the high-point together with "Sail to the moon" from the new album. Yorke did a little dancing and all was good.

Go see 'em if you get the chance, it's well worth the buck.

Cheers.
