Radiohead, at Glastonbury Festival in 2003, playing "The National Anthem".



By 2003 most people had accepted the idea that it was no longer possible to crash the festival and hence it is recognised as one of the most successful years to date. The number of tickets available to the public was increased slightly over 2002, partially in response to criticism that the 2002 festival was underpopulated and lacked atmosphere. The tickets sold out within one day of going on sale, in marked contrast to the two months it took to sell a similar number in 2002. It was also the first year that tickets sold out before the full lineup was announced.

This was also the year Radiohead returned to headline the Pyramid Stage.

Revenue raised for good causes from ticket and commercial licence sales topped £1 million, half of which went to Oxfam, Greenpeace and Water Aid.

  • Shut up and enjoy the music.

  • @lafla2 But this music is based on the chaos theory, you can hear that on the studio version. Every brass instrument recorded a free-jazz solo without hearing each other, after joining them together they got what mathematicians call 'Complex Dynamical Systems', society works just like that. Welcome to the Post-structuralist concept of a nation! (I just got one word for this song: MASTERPIECE)

  • I love how he puts his hands up when he's about to start signing.

  • For some reason bits of this (some of his singing / noises & his slightly jangly guitar) remind of Jane's Addiction...

  • @XsoysuicidaX definitely is Thom

    Thom Yorke = singer

    Justin Bieber = just a pretty voice
