Radiohead Roll Call

[azaghal1981]

Dude don't tempt me.
 
 
 I have an unused Delta ticket that would cover this.
 
 
 No way my broke ass could do SXSW but RH/Sigur Ros sounds way too awesome to turn down.

ya think?!?  already pricing this trip but won't be booking anything until tickets are secured.  venue holds 50,000, usually the whole place is GA.  with 150k tickets on offer, shouldn't be too hard to get.
 
 btw, sigur ros have confirmed that they will not be playing with RH in MX.  bummer.

Ugh. I wonder who they're teaming with in Mexico, then...they couldn't possibly be doing this by themselves, right? I mean, are they that big of a draw in Mexico? 50,000-capacity venues...that's major.

[azaghal1981]

Bjork, perhaps?

[teepo]

hmm the week of march 15th could possibly be spring break... hmmmmmmm

fyi, this announcement was front-page news in mexico city this week.  i have no doubt that these 3 shows will sell out.  a big-name opening act isn't required.  someone on another message board mentioned that word on the street was that El Tri might open, never heard of them.

radiohead was on the HD music concert channel today.  ill save the trip to mexico.  they did sound good.

interesting... do you happen to remember the date & place of the show?  was it a recent one from this tour (in rainbows)?  if i had to guess i'd say santa barbara, since NPR broadcast it live.  maybe it was one of last week's japanese shows?

[manimtired]

not sure...they ended with creep though, if that helps

[sweetcell]

ah, thanks.  that makes it an old show - they haven't played creep since 2006.

 I just saw it. Right now, there's a flight from American Airlines on Priceline from BWI to Mexico City for $398 R/T...just sayin!

 (SXSW is 3/18-22, for all interested parties, so it's totally do-able)

He's busy fantasizing of a Palin presidency..

azaghal, you sitting down for this?  opening for RH on the south american tour is... Kraftwerk.

unfortunately i'm not going to make the mexico shows, although i'm really really regretting it now.  i even had tickets in my shopping basket during the WASTE presale, but had a moment of clarity and threw them back.  dammit.

[azaghal1981]

Wow...talk about an amazing show!



I did read recently that Florian left the band, though.
