Bootleg: Radiohead Newcastle Arena, Newcastle, 23, November, 2003, 23.11.03

Bootleg: Radiohead Newcastle Arena, Newcastle, 23, November, 2003, 23.11.03

Also.... I added the Radiohead bootleg from Newcastle, England on the 23rd of November 2003 (23.11.03)

I actually went to this gig myself. Hooray for me! I'll add a player soon and a write up, as I intend to do at some point will all the bootlegs. As mentioned in previous blog, the download link is halfway down the page for some reason??? So scroll down.

Also, I forgot to mention that the media players I am using on the website do not work on internet explorer. (suprise...not.)

Anyone would be doing themselves a LARGE favour by downloading some other web browser which isn't internet explorer. Like say, google chrome or firefox....
and not just because they'd get to listen to my radiohead bootlegs either....

Someone recommended the same thing to me about 5 years ago and I just quietly agreed with the advice whilst wondering... what's a web browser? Good times.

I will add one soonish... Also, for some reason, as I write the info is half way down the page. I don't know why?! Such is my limited html ability, but hopefully that'll also get sorted soon. In the meantime people will have to take the initiate to scroll down the page....

An interview with Colin Greenwood pre-performance of Radiohead T In The Park 1996

Hello Earth,

I've just found this really cute youtube video of Colin Greenwood from Radiohead being interviewed before performing 'at the back of the stage' for Radiohead's set at T in The Park Festival, 1996. He clearly has no idea of how HUGE radiohead were going to be!

YouTube - radiohead high and dry T '96

Also, here is the complete audio performance of Radiohead's set at T In The Park 1996 for your listening and downloading pleasures!


It really is one heck of a performance... The whole set is brilliant, but their closing song - 'Thinking About You' is well worth a listen, if not purely for the fact that it's not a song you'd ever hear Radiohead play nowadays, but it's also a really emotive performance too, far more angst ridden than the Pablo Honey version, but then it was generally the case that Radiohead had a tendency back then to perform Pablo Honey songs better live than they did for the actual debut album. The 'Live at the Astoria' DVD is a testament to that.

Bootleg: radiohead, T In The Park, glasgow, 13, July, 1996, 13.07.96

Bootleg: radiohead, T In The Park, glasgow, 13, July, 1996, 13.07.96


Hello.... I am persisting with my bootlegs website... although to be honest, doing the whole thing from scratch is proving to be a ridiculously tedious and slow process. For some reason I can't get the player for this one to work yet and I can't understand why... even so, it is still downloadable. (You just can't listen to it yet!)

It is the bootleg of radiohead performing at T In The Park, (Strathclyde Park) Glasgow, Scotland on the 13th of July 1996 - (13.07.96)

It really is rather an excellent setlist too. The sort that would make one fall over if half of the songs on there were ever played at a Radiohead gig now!

Radiohead, Meadowbank Stadium, Edinburgh, Scotland, 22nd August 2006

Radiohead - Meadowbank Stadium, Edinburgh, Scotland 22nd August 2006 Cover Art

This was the third time I saw Radiohead perform.

Deer Hoof and Beck were supporting.

Deer Hoof were certainly interesting. A four piece band with oddly structured songs, a generous use of pauses, outstanding and unique minimalistic drumming (By this I mean the kit was minimalistic, not the actual style) with sometimes no more than a sentence worth of lyrics to a song and fronted by a fairly eccentric Japanese girl.

Beck... well everyone knows who Beck is. I only really know his well-known songs, but he was entertaining and the puppets, and pre-performance video of their time in Edinburgh was great.

By the time Radiohead opened with Airbag I was about one metre from the barrier at the stage. I remember singing my head off with the crowd and thinking how lovely Thom Yorke looked in his little denim jacket!

The following songs however were slightly torturous. The crowd for some odd reason were really violent! This is not what anyone would expect from a Radiohead gig. This is the same band that hung up posters around the huge blue tent they had made on the the Big Top tour saying “Radiohead kindly request NO MOSHING”

This was without a doubt the scariest crowd I ever had the misfortune of being in, though I think it was possibly a case of a small number of people spoiling it for everyone else. After the fourth song I’d had quite enough. My jeans were half way down my backside, my hair was getting pulled in every direction, I had actually been lifted up and suspended off my feet for a good few seconds by the sheer force of the crowds’s movement and left there until dropped and had absolutely no control whatsoever over any of my limbs or which direction I was headed!!!

In hindsight I should have gone over the barrier but as that's where the crowds undercurrent was coming from - I decided to go back through the crowds which took forever as it is rather a large stadium. Thankfully during 'Morning Bell', Thom decided to stop the song half way through in order to calm the crowd down and express his disapproval. This bought me enough time to get out without too much casualty.

So all in all this was a bit of a strange gig for me because there was a fair amount of shock and tears involved. :( But heck, crying at a radiohead concert! I’m sure it’s not the first time it's ever happened right?

The open air stadium was an excellent venue and made for an enjoyable atmosphere. The band were in full swing as usual and Thom's voice seemed to get better with each song. Videotape, Nude, All I Need, Bodysnatchers were all new songs on the setlist at that time and were to be recorded a year later for the 'In Rainbows' album.

Radiohead closed the set with a rather sarcastic version of ‘creep.’ A song that I never in a million years expected I would ever get to see them perform!

All in all it was nothing if not a memorable gig!

I will be adding more gigs soon on my bootlegs website !!!


Lots of love,

Girl from winter jargon.
