Radiohead Headlining 2017

[scatteredscreens]

Geese of the Beverly Road is my favourite from Alligator, I also enjoy Looking for Astronauts too, but Alligator is a good record. It's up there with Boxer to me, Boxer is a more polished record though.

While we're at it, Wedge only survived Yavin and Hoth by wussing out. Dutch Vander was the true hero of the rebellion.

Isn't Abel this forum's favourite National song? Utter scandal from you, LAWN.

... Karen is better though.

 

Bloodbuzz Ohio is the true connoisseur's choice. Boxer and Alligator don't fly that much higher above standard 00s American radio rock fare.

ACE NEWS!!! Hope Neil has bulked up the servers over the coming weeks, can they really handle the sheer quantity of lists that this thread seems to generate?!

On another note.

Stumbled across a poor lad who on Facebook said:

"Thank god I got tickets for last year with Adele and Coldplay and not have to sit through 2 hours of radiohead"

He's seemed to be getting it all wrong. He doesn't like Radiohead, cardinal sin, demotes them lower that Coldplay, even greater cardinal sin, and more of a general problem: he assumes that you have to watch the headliner!!! Enough of Facebook. Sums up why this is the better place to chat RH and the festival.

[Rubber Soldier]

All this talk of Bon Iver/ The XX/ The National is making me uncomfortable. 

[DeanoL]

Well there's two possibilities:

1) It's happening

2) Some people at Glastonbury read these boards, saw how impossible it was last year to convince much of it that Radiohead aren't playing, and are doing a wonderful bit of trolling.

Is there a reason why everyone seems certain that they are playing in the Saturday?

are they booked in for other dates on the Friday and Sunday?

Was a fan of the Bends and part of OK Computer, their more commercial sounding stuff. What's the closest recent album to get into before Glastonbury? 

After deciding to miss them and watch Dodgy a few days later at the Kidderminster Market Tavern in 1992 I have never seen them since and want to watch them at Glasto but don't want to be one of those who stand there bored waiting for a couple of classics. Plenty of time to get into them more. 

Start with In Rainbows, then A Moon Shaped Pool. Once you're up and running then try the rest in order from Kid A onwards.

My one minute of fame in the tweet used.

I can officially say I've been in loaded magazine and didn't even need to take my top off to appear.

Sad Song for Dirty Lovers

More importantly can't wait to see this Logo finished!

Not much change this morning, unmistakable though!

Can we please keep National chat out of this thread, it's diverting my excitement (cos they're a bit shit).

[arcade fireman]

The logo looks finished now...

All this Alligator talk and no mention of Secret Meeting yet

[CaledonianGonzo]

The National are the only band who's goings I've left early twice due to the fact that they were so boring.

This.

I've tried so many times to get into the national but I just don't get it. They're by all accounts a band should adore, but don't.
