Notes:

Not a better way to finish off Day 1 of Lollapalooza than with Radiohead. Fourth time seeing these guys, they really outdid themselves on this one. Another ocean of people packed damn close together in the Chicago evening heat. Of course, this ocean would be outdone by the next day's (Rage) ocean. This is a second source (at least), and as I normally don't "do" samples, one is below for your earholes, just so there's "no surprises." Several Dime community residents requested this torrent, and how could I refuse? This was a great set of music, the recording itself is strong, but unfortunately, imo, there is too much chatter in and around. I just don't understand how people can bust their asses to get to the show, cram together for it, clap for it, and then talk all the way through it. No Radiohead song is too sacred to talk over, either. Perplexing. A note for the drunk skank with the endomorphic boyfriend who was playing catch up from the day's events for all around to hear.....please just shut the fuck up.....please. At one point during Fake Plastic Trees, a drunken gal came barrelling through the throng right at me, giving me all of 0.2 seconds to prepare for her. Didn't allow her to jam into the mics, but I had to quickly move down and to the right to avoid it, couple seconds of somewhat muffled sound, neither of us said a word, nor did her caretaking friends. All you can really do is point her to the medical tent. Great versions of There There, Lucky, and the fireworks display to the sounds of Fake Plastic Trees, just outstanding. Dollars And Cents, along with Idioteque, real showstoppers. Recorded about 10 feet behind the soundboard, just left center of the stage. Thom has some interesting things to say, he is also amazed at the size of the crowd. A thanks as always to DJ Froyd, he played consultant for me on this roadie, and it paid off huge. Comments are welcome. Enjoy.
