Ed O’Brien: “We’ve been very lucky”

In an interview with 93 XRT in Chicago, Ed O’brien said the band have been very lucky to do what they want throughout their whole carreer.

Talking to Marty Lennartz just before their Lollapalooza performance in Chicago, last Friday, the Radiohead guitarist talked about playing tracks from ‘In Rainbows’ live in 2006 and now. On how to the coventional release was actually very Rock & Roll.

Responding on how the band can actually do what they want Ed said: “Yeah, we’ve been very lucky. When you go back to ‘Creep’ – even thoug we got pissed off with it – we recouped on our first record. So we could make ‘The Bends’ without many interference. Which then led on to ‘OK Computer’, which led on to ‘Kid A’.

Watch the full interview with Ed O’Brien at Lollapalooza.

    What 11 songs??? You owe me one!! (As if I paid for the record…)

  • Muldfeld

    You can say that again, Ed. I wouldn’t mind not hearing Karma Police again. I’d much prefer to hear softer songs: I Will or Scatterbrain or Sail to the Moon rather than 2+2=5 or There There. Though I do love Idioteque.

    For what it’s worth I intentionally didn’t clap or barely clapped during Nude, House of Cards and especially Bodysnatchers or Bangers ‘n’ Mash (which I still dislike). I applauded rapturously only during Videotape and Arpeggi.

    Where the hell did they get that we wanted IN Rainbows more than anything else? Fuck that!

    “Where the hell did they get that we wanted IN RAINBOWS more than anything else? Fuck that!”

    Oh, I don’t know, just maybe the fact that it’s the fucking IN RAINBOWS TOUR and that the album has gotten almost overwhelmingly positive reviews.
