I talked to buzz about this on last.fm, but I just didn't dig the scope of what they played. There was too much In Rainbows and not enough OK Computer/The Bends. Call me old-school, but I would have taken either of those albums cover-to-cover before 1 song of In Rainbows.
Here's the setlist, you let me know what you think:
Radiohead | 5/5/08 | Cruzan Rum Amphitheater
MAIN SET
All I Need (In Rainbows)
Bodysnatchers (In Rainbows)
There There (Hail To The Thief)
Reckoner (In Rainbows)
The Gloaming (Hail To The Thief)
Morning Bell (Kid A)
Nude (In Rainbows)
How to Disappear Completely (Kid A)
15 Steps (In Rainbows)
Weird Fishes/Arpeggi (In Rainbows)
Idioteque (Kid A)
Bulletproof….I Wish I Was (The Bends)
Where I End and You Begin (Hail To The Thief)
Airbag (Limited EP Airbag/How Am I Driving?)
Everything In It's Right Place (Kid A)
National Anthem (Kid A)
Videotape (In Rainbows)
FIRST ENCORE
Optimistic (Kid A)
Just (The Bends)
Faust Arp (In Rainbows
Exit Music (OK Computer)
Bangers & Mash (In Rainbows Disc 2)
SECOND ENCORE
House of Cards (In Rainbows)
Street Spirit (The Bends)
The reason I say MORE BENDS was b/c Bulletproof and Just were SO FUCKING GOOD -- and ONE SONG from OK Computer just doesn't do it for me. Don't get me wrong, Mitch, they are fantastic performers, and their stage/lighting is amazing. I just wanted more of the albums that are classics for me.
Hopefully, they'll be back in another 6 years.
