They played five out of those 6 at Berlin and Primavera (I think) and they still sounded pretty great.

Generally I'm all the way with you when it comes to their own shows. I would happily sub out Paranoid Android, Karma Police etc. But there's a time and a place to hear certain songs. 

Aye you're right, their inclusion is certain. Well karma police and paranoid android anyway. But as you say, at glastonbury with a belly full of booze they are exactly the songs we will want to hear. 

I reckon they will 100% open with burn the witch then go into creep. I have foreseen it.

Here's a question for you, what's your top 5 songs you hope they play/are most looking forward at Glastonbury? If you're anything like me it's probably quite different from your top five Radiohead tracks (I have the fear Reckoner will never be as good as it is in my head). My five would be:

EIIRP. Weird Fishes. Karma Police. 2+2=5. Let Down. 

Fake Plastic Trees, Weird Fishes, No Surprises, Identikit, Creep. One of my favourites is 2+2=5, but I could see that being not as effective as hoped.

My wishlist of 5 right now would be:

- The Bends

- Fake Plastic Trees

- Jigsaw Falling Into Place

- Let Down

- How to Disappear Completely

4 I haven't seen on this tour (did see HTDC in 2012, though) and the other is Let Down, so yeah.

I've got it into my head that 2+2=5 would be a great opener. Someone said earlier that it isn't that great live but I thought it was fucking brilliant in Berlin.

Cba with them opening with half of Burn the Witch into Daydreaming.

Yeah Reckoner would be in there if I hadn't recently seen it. I think The Bends would go off big style live.

That's just reminded me of at Lollapalooza, about 6/7 songs in, straight after they'd played Reckoner I think, my mate turned to me and said "Well this is unnecessarily good isn't it". We'd both seen them at the same MEN show in 2012 but I think both forgot just how amazing they are live.

The other mate I saw them with in Berlin said after they became TBC that he hopes they're not as good as at Lollapalooza because he won't be able to handle it.

God they were fucking good.

They really were, it was amazing. I've never been in a group of people at a gig where every single person was in awe the whole concert, but that really struck a chord for everyone. It was so fuckin' special..

I'll leave.

Which of their headline performances is generally regarded as the best? Need to have a YouTube binge on their live shows! 

i think they're both pretty highly regarded. the 1997 performance was obviously fantastic for being so The Bends/OK Computer heavy (which a lot of people prefer), but with the 2003 performance they had more to choose from including stuff from Kid A (although was pretty Hail to the Thief heavy so all depends on how highly you rank that album). them opening with There There in their 2003 show has always been a favourite of mine. you've got a long time so definitely give both a watch if you get the chance. if they go about choosing the right setlist their 2017 performance could easily be on the same level as the previous two imo
