Santa Barbara, nice. If it's not a K records band we usually never get it!

Indy or STL here, maybe both.

I haven't seen them since they came to Birmingham with R.E.M. opening for them on the Orange Crush tour. I think I'll take a 2 hour drive to Atlanta and check em out.

Santa Barbara... nice, hopefully I can score some tickets, that's a lot closer to where I live than Los Angeles =D

What's with these SB residents coming out of the woodwork!? Denny's some night is my claim.

WarderX · 01-11-2008, 04:15 AM

Was kinda joking, I've seen radiohead before but in a festival setting, and the crowd there did actually make me laugh a lot. Lots of goths(I don't know why), a good number of broseph abercombie dudesters, lots of hipsters, three black people, and a handful of girls. It freaked me out bad.

Maybe this is a dumb questions...but can anyone whose seen Radiohead live tell me is each show on a tour pretty much the same set list or do they mix things up?

I'm considering going to two shows, but I know they'll end up selling out and I'll have to pay scalpers. I'd like to see them once with friends and once alone so I can really sink it in, but I'm not sure if its worth it if its going to be essentially the same show.

They change it up.

You can flip through their past setlists and see for yourself. They generally stick to a set few songs, but definitely pop in different songs at every stop, most usually the encores get the most change.

For example, when I saw them at Coachella (the only time I've seen them) they played "Creep" in their encore and they very rarely play that song live.

So if you have the ability to see them live in different settings, I would highly advise you do so.

Also don't forget -- it is VERY likely they will play multiple shows in a certain city, like 3-4 shows in LA, NYC, etc.

Since they are so big on being Enviro-friendly, it does make sense to stay in the same spot and do multiple shows a few nights in a row. Only time will tell though.

Cool...good to hear. I'm so looking forward to this tour and I'm planning on paying whatever it takes. I'm like a teenage girl waiting for Hannah Montana here.

Anyone know whether they will be doing the stadium thing or small venues yet? Their website seems to indicate smaller venues which I would prefer. I know it will be harder to get tickets, but I'd rather pay the extra fee to see them in an intimate setting.

True that.

Can someone post a new thread with all caps titles in all the forums when tickets are on sale?

Horse · 01-17-2008, 01:34 AM

Radiohead is great.

(for buying the max tickets on multiple accounts and reselling for some gross multiple)

A pal o' mine works at a venue here in chicago, and the standard band and house ticket #s in the high 25-50% depending on the band. That is when you're paying said gross multiple for your eBay ticket the money goes directly in the venue and band's pockets, as they just keep them set aside to very illegally charge a fuckload more for something that'll obviously sell out instantly.

MrGraham · 01-28-2008, 05:24 AM

Anyone have a site or something I can put my email address in and get an email as soon as tickets go on sale?

Radiohead.com is blocked from work so I'm not sure if there's something there or not.
