2ND NIGHT AT THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL
Radiohead’s second night at Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles featured Creep and an acoustic Nude/Big Ideas. Airbag was dedicated to the Chili Peppers. Full setlist and reviews are available in the gigography.
Hollywood Reporter has a review of the first gig at the Hollywood Bowl: “Bottom line: Powerful, yet cold and distant, Radiohead remains curious but erratic.”
MTV has a review as well: “To those unfamiliar with what is arguably the most celebrated rock band of the last 10 years, the scene Thursday night at the Hollywood Bowl probably looked a little strange.
On a giant eggshell of a stage, a small man frolicked around, wiggling his limbs like spaghetti noodles and mumbling things like “two and two always makes up five.” But to music fans who take their tunes smothered in originality, it was the prime rib of rock concerts.” [read it in full]
And a review from the Virginmegamagazine.com: “The relevance of Radiohead’s songs resonated by reflecting the anxiety of the current political and cultural atmosphere. The pairing of “2 + 2 = 5” and “Lucky” left goose bumps, not only because of the musical intensity, but also the lyrical content. When Yorke screamed the lines “you are not paying attention” and “hail to the thief” in “2 + 2 = 5,” the political anger felt as palpable as the sardonic humor when Yorke sang, “the head of state has called for me by name” in “Lucky.” Yorke even made a crack before “Myxamatosis” about the California recall election, perhaps a nod to the chaotic debate that took place just the night before.” [full story, thanks Sean]
