hahahha high five!
radiohead fans have always been the most intensely obsessive sort, i've found. and i've had many an argument with them, so i do know..
hahah BEST SOUND IN THE WORLD indeed.

I kinda agree with you in a way, but its just that when your a fan of a band... you tend to take anything they release as having some high and lowlights.

look at Zwan for example, as good as it was it will never herald back to the old days of the pumpkins and stuff right?

its the same with radiohead and there position. i loved all there albums up until OK computer... kid a, amnesiac and hail to the thief are all mediocore compared to the first three albums but there still seems to be value enough in the records to see them. so basicly i am very excited about these gigs to see the old Radiohead material

But i know your point exactly. Amnesiac was a SHIT album. yet was heralded as "there greatest to date". so point accepted

i dont know if you interested in letting sleeping dogs lie... maybe i could add you to my friends list again? i know we have been through a lot of shit and stuff. but if your willing...

well i'm sure as hell not indie, nor am i a "trendite" or anything that even remotely resembles cool. and i never will be.

i just want to go see them because i like them. not because it might earn me some indie cred. heh.

ah jess - i didnt mean the genuine fans - i'm talking about the average music fan whom has just decided that it seems like a goer as Radiohead are 'so arty and cool'...

i admit, if they were still making good music, I'd be one of the first there, but alas, their music disappoints me.

I herald the fact that I saw them last time they came here, when I was 13 no less! SO SUCK THAT INDIE WANNABE TYPES. And of course I haven't bought an album of theirs since Kid A, and they'll never be relevant to me again, so I can understand your point.
