Ed O’Brien on Radio 3FM
Ed O’Brien was a guest Dutch radio station 3FM today. Ed talked with Wim Rigter in the ‘Arbeidsvitaminen’ show about Amnesiac and Ed mum’s appearances on Radiohead guestlists. Ed played one of his favourite records, which is ‘Ghost Town’ by the Specials. I’ve recorded the broadcast. Listen to it by clicking here.
With the band only playing 1 UK gig this year, Ed reveals future tours are undecided after 2000’s Big Top tour. “Having the same tent every night meant we didn’t have to compromise- the sound and lights were amazing, they’re the best gigs we have ever done” Ed enthuses. But I do accept tickets were dear. We may go back to Brixton-style venues and only charge half-price. Some people always assume that we know ‘the right thing to do’ the truth is we don’t.” - read it in full here. [thanks Andy]
The Australian broadcast of Top of the pops will be on Sunday May 27th at ABC TV.
Tickets for the Budokan, Tokyo on October 2nd will go on sale on June 10th. [thanks Kyoko]
There was a unknown track played at french radio last week. The track (available in the multimedia section) was #9 on the DJ’s copy of Amnesiac. Max K. explains: “official people have confirmed that the track is the one known as ‘cuttooth’ - which was dropped from the amnesiac track listing at the last minute. it was track 9 on an early tracklisting, so that is where the ‘hunting bears’ confusion comes from plus the fact it sounds a lot like neu! etc - matches up with eds diary… as for whether it will be a b-side for knives out is more unknown, simply cause decisions like that change from day to day. as for when it was recorded and whether it is actually called ‘tongue tied’ now is another question…”
According to HMV the Knives Out single (double CD) will be released on July 23rd in the UK. [thanks Andy]
