Fine.  But would it kill them to play one or two of them on a rotating basis?

How? They play for an extra 20 minutes. For my $50, I think they can suffer through it.

I dont like REM so much, but if i had to pick a better album out of the two, i have never heard Up.  so there.
 
    I think the problem is, Radiohead kind of completely turned into another band altogether...some will not like the new Radiohead, others will like them no matter what, and other will like them more.  I am in the last group of that...doesnt mean i am wrong.

Well, they do , they played Creep, No Surprises and Paranoid Android at Merriweather. Street Spirit, Karma Police, and Fake Plastic Trees in Wisconsin.  They played My Iron Lung and Nice Dream in NJ.  
 
   anyway, you can see on ateaseweb that not one of thier sets were the same on any night.

I AGREE!  After the Merriweather show i said "the only way I'm leaving TOTALLY satisfied is if they play thier whole catalog"  
 
   there will always be ONE song i wish i'd heard.

All bands do that.  REM is a classic example.  But a better example would be U2.  Series one (Boy-October-War-Unforgetable Fire)  Series Two (Joshua Tree - Rattle and Hum)  Series Three (Auchtung-Zoorpoa-Popmart) Series Four (ATYCLB).
 
 During Series three, they were trying to desperately to get away from Series one and two, so they played only 6-7 songs in a 20 song set off of their first 5 albums, but they rotated 2-3 of them so it was always different.  And they changed up the way some of the songs were played to fit with the new direction of the band.  They didn't just ignore them all together the way Radiohead has.  I'm fine with them wanting to play new stuff but asking for some old stuff doesn't make us wrong either.

when i saw U2 on Achtung Baby, they played a lot of old stuff, much more than Radiohead does.
    I think they should play more old stuff...i was more commenting on the people who dont seem to like Radiohead anymore, not people asking for more old stuff at live shows

Wow such a long flamer thread, and not a mention of me. As it should be.
