[CourtneyRaeJ]

Hells yeah!! :) I was there...best concert ever!! :)

[lvergirl2006]

I would give Radiohead a real tree.

[1dlen0w]

Great show.

[jesusXdiablo]

I remember this! Amazing concert. I wasn't near as big a fan of them before I saw the concert, my dad wanted to go, afterward I put all the CDs my dad had on my computer.

I loveee them now.

[lBearman]

Im extremely jealous that you were that close, i was in the grass

[perezlora]

joda radiohead es lo mejor de lo mejor,,,coldplay son una simple copia de este espectacular grupo,,pero estos son los verdaderos,,los que inventaron este estilo de musica

[andnoeggs]

ELEGANT SIMPLICITY  .

[watergirl2000]

** thud **

Thank you, IOW.

[bigmike2899]

i was there, he sang this song for me..

greatest nite of my life.. thanks guys X)

[jonnieowen]

if all the ignorant idiots would stop making so much noise during the song you may actualy be able to hear what he's singing........it's not Jerry Springer......it's Radiohead you loud whining bastards! Good quality recording camera though fair play.....respect

[jesusXdiablo]

God you havn't even heard loud until you go to a Killers show... It was insane there. 7 o clock start and quite a few people showed up drunk already.

They put on a great show, it's the people around me I cant stand.

[BillHicksPsilocybin]

You haven't heard loud if you think killers is loud.

[jesusXdiablo]

Oh yes sir, because obviously you were at the exact show I was at with the exact same acoustics and the exact same people and show.

Thank you for correcting me kind sir.

[BillHicksPsilocybin]

Your welcome asshole.

[zlot66]

this concert was one of the greatest times in my life. even if we were in the parking lot for four hours because no one else could find their fucking car. couldn't even sleep with all the damn car alarms going off. still. best concert and best band of all time

[Marcuszjz]

Thom Yorke is the new Jesus

[SigmaEx36]

hey i don't know if you remember but your camera view looks like exactly where i was...i am 6"8 tall so if you remember a really big tall guy near you...that was me...

[ImportanceOfWhatever]

don't remember - but glad you weren't standing in front of me :o)

[ILIKEMUSICANDMYDOG]

Wow, and I thought the occasional scream in Atlanta was annoying...this is a "shut up and listen to thom" song in my opinion. Awesome performance though.

[JWMogren]

You really had great seats and a clear camera view! Do you have any more songs you can post from the concert?

[dsignrdane]

jeez how many people uploaded this concert on here. you guys must of been standing right next to each other. not that i'm complaining or course.

[jiaojiao118]

thanks for posting the video, good job recording! wow they played lotta old songs in st louis...cant wait for the LA show....got tix in the pit!!!! so exited.

wot kind of camera did u use, by the way?

[ImportanceOfWhatever]

Canon G9 .. its not great for video - as its a little blurry wish it was a little sharper - but the pictures with this camera turned out awesome

[jlatham]

Thanks for the awesome video. I too was in the pit at that show. I couldn't believe it when I walked into a half full pit at the beginning of the show. Plenty of room to dance though!

[sunvoltage]

Bsimple is spot on!!!!!--Whiny, self-absorbed, musically inept, trendily self-deprecating (pop of the '90's?), cannot play themselves out of a paper bag, FUCKING BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[clockworkgas]

man...fuck you dude..

[sunvoltage]

Yes, there it is--a fine introspective reply describing the specific aspects of this "band" that make it so appealing. Good job, clockwork! How about pointing out the insatiable groove that these guys cannot seem to find? "Pass the heroin, mate. I am all caught up in my own little pathetic world, but the only good thing is people actually pay to listen to me whine about it."

[clockworkgas]

What, you want me to compose you a pretty little piece of prose with big, flowing sentences, appealing to your judgment and begging for permission to enjoy this band? NO. Hearing this song live at this concert was one of the best moments of my entire life, and it would be criminal to try to express with words the beauty I see in their music, and to try to explain WHY I enjoy their music to someone like you. Either you like them or you don't. I'm not going to waste my time.

[drrojas]

IGNORANT.

[clockworkgas]

lol, me or sunvoltage?

[drrojas]

Common Clockworkgas!!!! of course I'm talking about Sunvoltage.

RADIOHEAD IS THIS GENERATION'S PINK FLOYD!!!! NOTHING CAN COMPARE TO IT!!!!

[clockworkgas]

Right on brotha.

Right on.

[musico87]

shut the fuck up i just expected better songs like all the songs were very fucking slow and depressingthe crowd in the lawn was really mad

[ImportanceOfWhatever]

slow and depressing??? were you even at the same concert the rest of us were at??? There were tons of people on the lawn area - You can't speak for ALL those people and say they were all "really mad" about the concert! The set list was perfect! ...Karma Police is a slow song btw

[thedude1104]

Were "all the people" friends of yours? I bet they were. If you aren't a fan of Radiohead's entire discography, then why did you go?

[thedude1104]

Why must idiots always clap along? They didn't play this for us in Houston, but it was still a great set. We got Planet Telex and Street Spirit, so that was cool. Musico87, buy a time machine and go back to 95.

[jiaojiao118]

lol. i know. and in the begining they werent even clapping on the right beat.

[tallmanturner717]

Damn getting out of that place sucked though, we were stuck in the parking lot forever, any other show it coulda been ruined, ridiculous traffic situation, hope nobody was hurt though

[tallmanturner717]

This is great video, such an amazing show, first trip ive ever taken to st. louis and was definatly an amazing experience. They are so good live it blows me aways.

[rushdog45]

musico...you're joking, right?

[musico87]

yeah i know but at least karma police you know its such a good song i really miss that song on this concert

[musico87]

i wanted him to play karma police high and dry and creep i dont know why the fuck he didnt play those songs

[rj213la]

Thom, in numerous interviews, has said that song like the ones you have just mentioned have been "played out". He hated the image of Radiohead "being that band that plays that I'm a creep song". Good songs nevertheless but the band has said, many times, that they would just like to forget those songs and play what they like.

[Bsimple1]

because they suck hard

[Outom33]

I was so fucked up at this point in the concert... great job filming!

[simon1975]

well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[superiorsurf]

Great job with the video! Looks/sounds great!

[rushdog45]

Absolutely incredible. I could hear at least 95% of the people ALL around me singing along. This was the only song I sang along all the way through.

Highlight of the night.

[myfloydgasm]

Greatest concert of my life!

I cried at the end of this song.

[stlouisradiohead]

i had a shitty camera and was near the speaker on the left so my audio sounds pretty bad. and i recorded blind because i just didn't give a f*ck, i was there to enjoy the show. you did a much better job!

[ccharlot]

it was incredible to finally hear this song and paranoid android live in person...i didnt' think they'd play the latter but it was a pleasant surprise. The only thing song that could have made that concert better would have been Let Down.

[roost80]

thanks so much for the upload... this was definitely a highlight... where i was in the lawn everyone was singing softly and beautifully along at the end there... oh, i hate to bitch but please show other band members other than Thom :P

[ImportanceOfWhatever]

the view I had, Thom was the only band member I could see - people's heads were in the way :o(

[genothefox]

would never have guessed FakePlastic Trees would be my favorite of the night,but it totally blew me away, thx for the closeup, the lawn didnt have this kind of detail

[leesab79]

sooo lovely, it brought much tears to my eyes. thank you for capturing this moment! wonderful show. im in the process of uploading paranoid android! should be up momentarly :)

[Eviland]

Definitely a fantastic show, great weather, couldn't think of a better way to spend a Wednesday. Even from the wet lawn.

[Todd619fp]

This was one of the best of the nite

[unwlawchick]

funnel cakes and kettle corn! lol

and he was saying hi to get feedback for the croud, for the loops for eiirp

[zlot66]

It was a great concert, i was truly amazed, i really was. i almost died when they started playing this song... it was truly touching, and all the lighters were great too. my only problem was everyone was in the parking lot looking for their car untill like fucking 2AM

"do i smell dough nuts? who would be eating

dough nuts at a time like this?" - Thom Yorke

[ImportanceOfWhatever]

that was so funny about the doughnuts! :D

[zlot66]

yeah, that was great, also loved it when he just started saying hi into the microphone

"hi, hi, hihi, hi, hi hi hi," - Thom Yorke

[chuckchuckerson]

When they closed with Paranoid Android it made my life, if you have that video can u put it on?

[Joseph82177]

FANTASTIC SHOW!! Paranoid Android certainly wrapped up the list. I cant wait to see them again!

[Neequu78]

This was pretty spectacular last night. Got me all teary eyed.

[2wheeljunkie]

One of the best show I've ever seen. The light show was as good as the one time I saw Pink Floyd. The sound was better than any show I've seen there, and the setlist was fantastic. I'm going to try to get tickets to the Indy show later this summer. What a great night.

[axiompillow]

This was a Fantastic show! It is nice to see it up close since we were further back in the center. Thanks for posting.

[kkring24]

that was seriously an amazing experience, i had been waiting so long to see them and i could not have been happier with their performance, thanks guys

[jakestogsdill]

i was at this concert last nite they were fuckin great

[MadmanMoon]

i had to leave before this one, thanks for posting.

[FloEvans]

NICE!

[polihi84]

I was on the lawn so it's great to see how everything looked up close. Thanks for posting this =c ) It was a beautiful show.

[ForRealzziez]

Wow! I hope you got more videos of the show because the audio turned out excellently! I really, really want a good quality version of Kid A! God Kid A was the highlight of my night last night.

[ImportanceOfWhatever]

sorry :o( this was the only vid I got... I'm sure more will show up here soon

[floyd0murphy]

yeah they really treated us good in STL. i was in the left center section, everything was phenomenal, it was the best & most satisfying setlist out of any band that ive ever seen

[DVSDen]

What an awesome show. Radiohead brought out a lot of the "radio favorites" for St. Louis.

[thom2255]

i was in the 11th row to the left a bit, thanks for putting this up!

[smilexbigx0]

[Slabj]
