I will say one thing.............radiohead fans send us to the absolute minor leagues fast...........they are insane!

live feeds of setlists on twitter and into various web sites.......instantaneous feeds of vids as they happen through the gig...........and then the cleaning up - so now we can go to one single page and click to what are deemed of the best vid of each cut of the gig............you can sit back and re-watch the entire gig in less than 24 hours from it happening

as cool as all that is I think I prefer our more laid back approach...............seems like possibly in this instance less is more 

But what, they call themselves Radiohead Heads?  Sorry, it doesn't sound right no matter how organized they may be.  I'll take laid back as well, and yes--less IS more.  Anyhow, good to hear some are managing to find some post-Vegas fun.  Work is kickin' my you know what--it's like a time warp and Vegas was weeks ago.  Still, the utopian memories endure...

haha.................thank god I am settled with no travel this week............back to nyc next week though

yeah but we love our vids and let me tell you this is one efficient bunch.................especially since I am so behind on getting up to speed so am loving it!

I mean check this out!!!

wow!

 

Damn.  Ok, maybe more IS more and MORE can be good TOO.  A little ting ting tingy for my taste, but it looked like a blast!

lol - radiohead is my trippy extension yet also serious dance mode............when I realized alex would be there in that regard I told him I still intended to rock out - and he said he would match me lol!

yeah I am getting ready..............it is healing!

 

so spinny maybe this is a little more up to speed?

off the new album

I cannot get over these guys and their fans..................tonight we had a live stream from two dudes - it was awesome - listened to the entire gig!!! What was very funny was they kept quoting their batter % life left........and at one point on the other live message board - something else we need so I don't fill multiple email boxes lol - someone asked what the hell type of phone do they have with such awesome battery life - they made it all the way through the second encore!

yes this is helping immensely!!!

 

last night................awesomeness!

no flogging............radiohead is definitely a love em or leave em band

I will say though there aren't many that rival them live - maria doesn't get much out of their cds but is very excited to be going monday.....

and remember there is a DG connection! 

ok call it a little nudge to the ribs........from the biography

David was certainly awe-struck on the nights he watched from the wings.........."Radiohead were really taking off...and I certainly learned a thing or two about professionalism from them. They really do it, those boys, they really deliver night after night - what a brilliant band to watch up close."

the next paragraph - from 2001 - speaks to David suggesting he would collaborate with Thom - now that would be very cool but considering it is from 11 years ago...

tonight is THE night!!!

was thinking on the way into the office today while enjoying TKOL blasting about how it has been four years since the IR tour with these guys..............and how really lucky we are at how much DG and the boys tour

more to come!

Enjoy!
