Last night I had the amazingly pleasure of seeing Radiohead perform at Thunderbird stadium. It was the second time I’ve seen them there and all I can so say is this show was incredible! We arrived just as they came on, and just as the rain started. Nobody seemed to mind the rain though…it just added to whole mood and vibe of the show I think. The visuals were sooooooooooo amazing. There were huge screens on both sides of the stage, and in the middle, which had coverage from about 6-7 different cameras all over the stage. The footage and effects were so awesome. They had these amazing “rods” of light on the stage too….over 100 if them. All through the night they had these fantastic lights dancing on them in various patterns and what not….it was incredible! They looked like the strings on those old oil lamps that people had in the 80′s….it was such a great visual effect for the show. The set list rocked too. Lots of my favorite old tracks and a good balance of the new stuff. Here’s the set list (they even let the audience choose the final track!)

There’s also a great article on NowPublic about the show…AND it features some photos of mine from the last Radiohead show in Vancouver!
