well i've seen radiohead now. : )

what a lovely trip. it's long but our drivers were on crack so that was fun and we listened to good music, i let them hear the new Outkast.. which is so freakin good.. i don't listen to big boi's stuff much but ghettomusick is awesome, listening to that right now. so we got there at 3 and had pizza downtown and got back and got great seats on the grass, way up front, met a couple about to get married and get a basset hound, which i couldn't talk them out of, asked people around me what their favorite radiohead song was, watched supergrass who were fine but not very exciting, and by the time radiohead was on the place was filled and it's completely overwhelming to look behind me at i don't know how many thousands of people. the show was sold out and the website says they have parking facilities for 20,000 so i guess that's about how many people were there.. that's intense guys.. that was a lot of heads, i kept looking back and smiling at that, i love that, we're all experiencing this fabulous thing together, so many people's souls and heads and hearts in the same place at once, and we had one moment where everyone got out their lighters, i think during lucky, that was great. here's what they played that i can remember in order of album: just, street spirit (wow), airbag, paranoid android (maybe the greatest moment) , karma police, lucky, everything in its right place, national anthem + idioteque (love these two), morning bell, you and whose army? (there was a camera tight on his face at the piano and he was flicking off the man and pulling them in with his finger on the "come on" parts, it was hilarious), 2+2=5, sit down stand up, sail to the moon, backdrifts, the gloaming (i think?) a punchup at a wedding, and a wolf at the door. AND they gave us TALK SHOW HOST! oh man. so that's a quick show, a little under 2 hours with count them TWO encores, but they covered their stuff really well, i guess they don't like pablo honey anymore but oh well, and they didn't play the two songs i really wanted, fake plastic trees and let down, but i kind of expected that. it was a great show. they sounded fantastic. the light show was great. the show on the screens around the stage were great. thom danced around and it was incredibly cute. and he was funny and we got to clap during the gloaming, assuming that that's the track with the claps on hail to the thief, i can't remember and i don't have it with me right now to check.. and the crowd was great and it was so fantastic to hear everyone singing along to karma police and just and all that great older stuff. hey! i love radiohead! it was a very good time. noodle salad.
