Radiohead - Talk Show Host [Glastonbury 2003]

Radiohead, at Glastonbury Festival in 2003, playing "Talk Show Host".


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.

This awesome song comes from the "STREET SPIRIT (FADE OUT)" single or the "ROMEO+JULIET" original soundtrack.

@WhatIsThatBlueStuff I remember a show they played on a TV show where Thom was pretty obviously on some sort of drug. As much as I respect Thom as a musician and as a person, I don't think he's above getting drunk on stage.

[WhatIsThatBlueStuff]

@Pipsocle Thom Yorke is way too professional to get drunk on stage. I don't think he cares about having a hardcore image or anything.

Best version I've come across.

[piperjo99]

That is sure one sexy riff Thom!

[esqu1m4l]

@streetlight482 Yeah, you're right but I think that makes the band sound like it does in their live shows. is awesome! :D

[hanl9889]

LOL, this was made in the "Bends" era? I always thought it was produced around the time of Hail To The Thief or something, it sounds so fresh...
