Complete Review of Radiohead Atlanta Show
May 13th, 2008 by admin
I will add a few reviews from people being present in the first shows of the first leg of the Radiohead North American Tour..
Many thanks to intodeep for his Radiohead Atlanta show review.
“The show was pretty good. i was in the pitt essentially “3rd” row with just a couple people in front of me to the left of Thom.
A couple held up a sign for Jigsaw that said “it’s our 10 year anniversary” then she would flip it over on the back and it said “Please play Jigsaw”
About 3 or 4 songs in thom was like congrats, but we are not playing that song tonight put your sign down. He did it in joking manner and kind of stuck his tongue out at them it was funny.
The show was good. Some of the songs were really good live and i liked them more so then on the album like there there, pyramid song, Idoteque, and optimistic. It was great watching them recreate those sounds in a live setting. Awesome being so close to the stage to see them get into the songs.
The light show was great. I really enjoyed being up on the stage, but i bet the light show looked even cooler from farther back. I was a bit to close i think to truely appreciate it.
someone threw a “Barack is the Future” (looked just like a Back to the Future T shirt just said Barrack is the Future instead) and they seemed to dig it and draped it over there monitor for the rest of the show.
for me the highlight of the night was Paranoid Android. It was fucking awesome! when they came out for the last encore as soon as they started it i looked at my buddy and we both new it was on 
i do wish they would have taken some of the slower paced songs out and added some more rockers from the early albums. Slow songs are okay and all but i really enjoy rocking out.
bodysnatchers, reckoner, & bangers n mash were all great live! The crowd got into them well except for bangers n mash i don’t think everyone really knew that one.
gotta love opening with all i need. That is one of my favs from the new album.
All in all i dug it, i just wish they would have played some different songs.”

i was there and this “review” does not even scrape the surface as to how good of a show this was.
