WHY so GREEN and LONELY (part THREE)?

Almost as soon as Spider Roll's last post went up, this news hit the world wide web:

"Radiohead to embark on a world tour in 2008"

Why So Green And Lonely (Part II)?

i just figured out that its been over 4 years since ive seen radiohead live. please come back to new york city.

everyday i write the book

About 3 songs into Saturday night's powerful Arcade Fire performance at Randall's Island, lead singer Win Butler encouraged the audience to really enjoy themselves because the band would not be returning to NY for "a couple of years." I sensed a collective "WTF?" but it was a short time before the intensity peaked again. Like as soon as they started the next song.

My last AF show at Radio City is a cloudy memory, due in no small part to the quantity of bourbon I consumed that night. So, it feels like last night's show was the first and last I will see (for a while, anyway). Personal highlight for me had to be "Headlights Look Like Diamonds" a monster song on their self titled EP. Come to think of it, my highlights include pretty much every song with a reference to cars in the title. Grammy award winning song "Cold Wind" was also excellent, as were the anthems "Power Out" and "Wake Up." Here is the full setlist:

Black Mirror

Keep The Car Running->Laika

No Cars Go

Haiti

I'm Sleeping In A Submarine

My Body Is A Cage

Cold Wind

Intervention

Antichrist Television Blues

The Well and The Lighthouse

Tunnels

Power Out->Rebellion (Lies)

Encore:

Headlights Look Like Diamonds

Wake Up

Wikipedia: On October 1, 2007 Radiohead announced via their blog the title, track list, and release dates of their seventh studio album, In Rainbows. At the time of its release, the band will not be in a contract with any record label. The album will be available exclusively as a digital download from inrainbows.com on October 10, 2007. The download version includes the 10 tracks that make up the album. It is reported that a standard CD version of the album is to be released in early 2008.[13] A special "discbox" will be released on December 3, 2007, and will contain the physical album on both CD and two 12" heavyweight vinyl records with artwork and lyric booklets. The discbox will also include a bonus Enhanced CD which contains 8 bonus tracks, as well as digital photos and artwork. The overall set will be packaged in a hardcover book and slipcase. The band are, however, planning a CD release of the album for early 2008.[14]
While the discbox is priced at £40 (which includes the digital download), the price of download by itself is left up to the buyer. Upon purchase, the buyer is prompted to type their desired price (plus a transaction fee of 45 pence if purchased for more than £0.00).[15]
