Radiohead Live In London!

Live as in right now (3:15pm pacific). Let's all watch together, shall we?

Aww, too late! We'll post a link to video from the performance, undoubtedly coming soon...

 

UPDATE! Okay, if you missed it live, you can see the entire thing below. The whole to-do was originally meant to be an in-store, but the number of people forced the band into a slightly larger space nearby. Still, seeing Radiohead in a small club with 100 or so friends ain't bad. As Thom Yorke said at one point, it turned into a "gig".

Thom's voice and presence are phenomenal.
This performance is excellent.

I agree. I saw them live a couple of years back and had the same thought then as when I was watching this: they're like a well-oiled machine, only with passion and soul and the ability to be spontaneous. So, like one, but not at all like one.

I also love how they continue to turn music industry's status quo on its ear. It's not hard to imagine a similar event offered live from some HUGE, lousy band costing $19.95 for web pay-per-view. As with their digital release in October and their two previous live webcasts, Radiohead says, "We feel like doing this, might be fun....and we're doing it tomorrow. Here you go..." Meanwhile the industry is flabbergasted about all that money they could have made...

Here's to the band.
