I was so lucky to catch this show.  I was working connies pizza, but we ended early this day and I made it in enough time to see all of Radiohead. It was simply awesome. It just sucks that I was kinda far back, but it was still one hell of a concert, and I loved it.

LOL. I took my friend to Connie's Thursday after he arrived from Florida. I live very close to there.

greatest concert I've EVER been to (along with MGMT the next day). Unfortunately, I was much farther back, but it was still amazing. :)

did you catch NIN? They're show was pretty fucking amazing!!

this was so incredible. it wasn't just radiohead's absolutely mind blowing performance that made this show soo fucking rewarding. it was the fans' dedication. everyone i was around started to stake out at about 3-4 o'clock. and when u had to use an artform to get your arms up over your head because the people were so cramped together, the sweat and heat from the people made it so there was a humidity that made it soooo hard to breathe. people were passin out all over the place. truly incredible

yes it was scorcher! We were there for Gogol Bordello (who were awesome!) and we stayed right where were till the end

Legendary show- the fireworks during Fake Plastic Trees, the set-list full of almost every consensus fan-favorite, and the feeling I got exactly when Thom Yorke went off at that moment.

Anyway, how good is this? You can hear the guy holding the camera going off a little during the breakdown hahaha

i was in spitting distance of thom yorke. when they go "you don't remember, you don't remember!!!" everyone was going crazy. i, like many others, staked out from 1. 5 of us started there, only me and my friend made it to the end. one of my freinds puked and passed out, the others nearly the same. it was more than a show, it was an experience of a lifetime. the dedication was stronger than the music, almost.

Amen brother, I came from Denver and camped out for 12 hours to get the front. This show was the best thing to ever happen to me.

the show was awesome, a video doesn't capture the whole emotion. I wanna see them in mexico the next tour.

I'd wanted to see Radiohead more than someone should for 2 years, I waited from 1 oclock on (they came on at 8). I barely ate any food and I was almost dehydrated when they came out - the most surreal and dream like experience of my life. There's no way to describe seeing Radiohead in concert

I agree NIN was amazing!
