I was using 2 computers and the phone, but it wasn't good enough.

Booo.

Hopefully you can get some good tickets on eBay. For the San Diego ones, there have been some auctions ending with almost decent prices, but others getting pretty high.

this worries me. if radiohead ever comes here, i doubt i'll get tix.

They're playing smaller venues on this tour than normal... I'm sure when the album comes out next year, they'll do a more extensive tour at bigger venues, and getting tickets shouldn't be a problem.

right now the more reasonable tix go at 120-140 dollars. I could get a pair for around 75 but none of my friends are willing to pay that much.

I didn't have any luck with Chicago either. I wasn't trying near as hard as you were, though... I'm pretty sure I'm just going to wait until the tour after the album.

I'd just like to declare that Let Down is my favorite Radiohead tune.

Oh no.

Cancelled 2nd Night Show in Amsterdam

We're very sorry, but because of a sudden family bereavement, we have had to cancel tonight's second concert at the Heineken Concert Hall. We are trying to re - schedule the concert in Amsterdam later on in the summer. We will keep you posted here, and in the usual media. We are especially sorry to those people who have made a special effort to travel and see us play. At least it's been a sunny day here, and there's no finer place in the sun than Amsterdam.

oh noes!

I hope its nothing serious.

Oh that's so sad.

And Johnny, I think a death in the family would be serious

is that what bereavement means?

Phil's mother died.

The first time I heard Let Down it absolutely blew me away. It could have easily been the best OK Computer single, but Radiohead chose not to follow a conventional single process with that album. They really don't play it live very often, but they've brought it back for this tour, so we may hear it again soon.

i guess i should go away. Let Down is one of my least favourites. I don't know why. :uhh:

Last night, Thom Yorke sent out the following message to Radiohead's W.A.S.T.E. fan club:

this is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that i have not told you about.
its called The Eraser.
nigel produced & arranged it .
i wrote and played it.
the elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished & i have been itching to do something like this for ages.
it was fun and quick to do.
inevitably it is more beats & electronics.
but its songs.
stanley did the cover.
yes its a record!
no its not a radiohead record.
as you know the band are now touring and writing new stuff and getting to a good space so i want no crap about me being a traitor or whatever splitting up blah blah...
this was all done with their blessing. and i don't wanna hear that word solo. doesnt sound right.
ok then thats that.

i think its out in july and im pretty certain XL are going to put it out.
love thom

So there you have it: Thom Yorke's un-solo album, The Eraser, is due out July 11 on XL Recordings. (Pretty cool that Thom Yorke decided to put his album out on an indie label, huh?) It was produced by Radiohead bosom buddy Nigel Godrich, and features the following songs (yes, they're all supposed to be lower case):

01 the eraser
02 analyse
03 the clock
04 black swan
05 skip divided
06 atoms for peace
07 and it rained all night
08 harrowdown hill
09 cymbal rush

Various sources, including Billboard.com, report that the track "black swan" will play over the closing credits of Richard Linklater's new movie A Scanner Darkly. You know, the one with the animated images of Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder playing characters in a Philip K. Dick novel.

As you probably already know (because we keep breathlessly telling you), Radiohead are on tour right now. The band canceled a show at Amsterdam's Heineken Music Hall this past Wednesday, due to the death of drummer Phil Selway's mother. The concert has been rescheduled for August 28.

The press release for Yorke's album states, "At the end of the tour Radiohead will resume work on their new album, due for release next year." Nice.
