No EIIRP or Paranoid Android…. I would gladly give up both of those to see Climbing Up the Walls and Go Slowly. Great setlist, and ending with Reckoner…I can see the outro of that song being a great way to end a show!

Fantastic show. Sound was better at 2nd night in APW though. But the setlist was better tonight. And Go Slowly sounds amazing live. It was a highlight for me. As was Climbing Up The Walls and Lucky.

fucking great set

The set seems rather slow, at least through the first 11 songs. Videotape the 6th song? Seems questionable, but I’m sure it was an amazing show nonetheless.

That first encore looks top notch. Even with House of Cards.

This show was freaking awesome. everything sounded great and this was the first i’d seen of the light display; very cool. I especially loved it during The Gloaming. The Kid A and Bends stuff was amazing.

oh man i wish they were playing new york again tomorrow….apw was so amazing. hope everyone has as great an experience on the rest of the tour. so lucky…..
pls
August 13th, 2008
I melted during Videotape. I didn’t think it’d be that amazing. When the light bars moved up during it, it just made the experience that much better.
The Bends was KILLER as was Planet Telex. Everyone sang in the lawn to that track.
I’ve waited so long to see Just and Morning Bell.
Go Slowly and Jigsaw were killer live.
Awesome show.

Holy crap, this show. Sound really was fine, just very, very loud. Audience was for the most part great. Absolutely packed — about a foot of room for each person on the lawn. The set really picked up early on, especially at The National Anthem which I did not expect. Lighting on Idioteque was insane.
Climbing Up the Walls was creepy, and while they didn’t play Paranoid Android, having No Surprises and Lucky in the set as well as Street Spirit towards the end, with Everything in Its Right Place as the finisher, I cannot complain.

Great show.. they really sounded good tonight.

I don’t know what show you guys were at, this was the worst sounding one I’ve ever seen. It was mixed terribly.

i wonder why they keep soundchecking i might be wrong, then don’t play it???

August 13th, 2008
Lucky, Jigsaw, and Climbing all were smokin. The sound was the major drawback of this show, but on many songs, incl these, was fine. Anyone notice that Thom smiled a lot?

The show was great as usual. I was right on the rail in the pit and had a monitor directly in front of me so its hard for me to gage the mix, but i agreee it seemed up too high on some songs, Street Spirit comes to mind, although still gorgeous. Climbing, Lucky, and the Bends were all highlights. Nice, respectful crowd. Thom, Ed, and Colin seemed happy, beautful weather, can’t ask for more….

if you went to both APW shows the only song you got was GO SLOWLY. I am kind of disappointed in that. why cant we get 2+2, the world is so fucked up right now and that song can touch people in funny ways. a good funny.

Last night in Camden was my 25th Radiohead show. Always was and always will be amazing.
nice dream
August 13th, 2008
Amazing, amazing show, Lucky, national anthem were all perfect, 15 steps, all i need, Bodysnacthers, Just, Planet Telex, it was beuatiful, wish they played paranoid android or karma police but lucky covered that it was truly a glorious day

Hoping they play In Limbo and I Might Be Wrong In Mansfield tonight! Seeing as they soundchecked it.

Beautiful show. The band sounded great and they were so gracious. Great crowd enthusiasm, too.

awesome show! where can i get a copy????
bob haut
August 13th, 2008
That venue sounds like shit. It’s not Jim Warren’s fault. The Bass has massive standing wave problems and you can’t get a tight sound. APW sound was the best I’ve ever heard out of 13 RH shows over 10 years. But it still sounded way better than most shows these days.
I thought the energy was a bit low compared to other shows, Thom seems to be holding back on some of the really pushed out high notes in some of the rockier songs. But I had a good time even for a NJ crowd. Sorry I’m a jaded NY’er.

Did they say something about China and Sudan during one of their songs? Somebody please confirm this b/c I think I’m going crazy.
Zack
August 13th, 2008
Great show, I agree with Spanosays, 2nd night APW was better execution. Thom may have been a bit wastey @ Camden. Bonus though: Climbing Up the Walls.

great set. love go slowly

August 13th, 2008
The show was beyond amazing last night. Everything was tight and the sound was better than expected being the last time I saw them was both nights at the Tower two years ago. But like I said, the sound was excellent in Camden.
Street Spirit was fantastic! And, as mentioned earlier, Video Tape is ten million times better live.
Bends and Planet Telex were great additions and sounded tight.
There There appearing early was a nice surprise. Of the new stuff, Weird Fishes and Jigsaw were just flat out exceptional. Everything sounded perfect and the crowd was into it. . .as they should be.
My only caveat would be the lack of more tracks from OK Computer. . .Let Down in particular.
All in all, just another reason to remind one self never, under absolutely no circumstance (barring emergencies), to miss any one of their shows.

Did anyone catch what was written on Colin’s t-shirt?

Great pictures, Alex - I would have murdered someone to be that close (maybe next time).
Still…GREATEST BAND EVER!!!
Coffee Cactus
August 13th, 2008
Brilliant show…but why must they hate on Amnesiac?
DAN
August 13th, 2008
I had front row for the first time in my life. Words could never convey how great they sound from up close. To hear Thom’s voice directly without needing amplification was just fantastic, and the bass vibrated my whole body. It’s worth the extra investment of paying to get close, and it’s worth the extra effort to wait in line all day to then run to the front. F*ck tailgating.
Dave
August 13th, 2008
Anomdebus: Colin’s t-shirt listed lyrics from Bodysnatchers: I am trapped in this body and can’t get out (I think)
Dave
August 13th, 2008
Dave,
Thanks for the info.
anomdebus
August 13th, 2008
Dave: I thought it was Jonny’s t-shirt
that said that.
Dan: I also wondered that. Amnesiac
might be my favorite album.
Dwayne: I was hoping to hear Letdown
too.
Zack: I think they played part of an NPR
broadcast that mentioned China and Sudan,
though what it said I’m not sure. I’m
also pretty sure the Tibetan flag was
displayed at one point. I couldn’t see
very clearly from the lawn.
chrissy
August 13th, 2008
They did have the flag of Tibet displayed, at APW they had 2 or 3 of them.
Does anyone remember Thom saying “May I have the piano forte please?” or rather, what song that was before?
Divided_Stef
August 13th, 2008
I remember him saying it, and I think it
was pretty early on. Could it have been
before All I Need?
chrissy
August 13th, 2008
damn they really aren’t playing karma police any more… and paranoid android should be in there too.

Greatest time of my life. Go Slowly was beautiful. Thom said “That one was called Go Slowly. This one is not”, then they ripped into Just. Amazing.
Seth
August 14th, 2008
Anyone catch Thom say “Cool beans”? Lol…
Seth
August 14th, 2008
Yup, the piano forte comment was right before “All I Need.”

August 15th, 2008
this was my 2nd radiohead show. i thought the crowd sucked (lol no offense) because nobody went crazy! not even those in the pit! everybody seemed so uptight & i couldn’t understand why.
i was seating in section 101 (really close to the stage) & i might’ve been the only one singing; everyone around me just stood there. whYYyYyY!
maybe its because im comparing it to the show in bristow, va… idk if you guys heard about how disastrous it was, with the floods & stuff. but the rain made it fun & also made us take more focus on the band & forget evrything else.
anyway… great show. radiohead never fails me 
& ed looked really hot lol
