    I cant understand people moaning about the setlist. If you only turn up for the old stuff what is the point in spending £70 on a ticket and travelling all that way? This was The King of Limbs your so they are obviously going toplay a lot of songs from that era. This was a show for real fans not casuals.

    Although The Bends is not nearly my favourite album, I'm so glad we got Planet Telex (my favourite song on the album). They played most songs I was hoping for like How To Disappear Completely (my favourite song in the world), we even got These Are My Twisted Words plus a teeny bit of Hunting Bears :D I wish we got Kid A, Staircase and 15 Step like London did but we can't get everything xP 3 encores FUCK YEAAH with an Idioteque finisher. Unlike others who hoped for all their old stuff, I feel rather spoilt :D KOL really is better live, and here I was wondering how they'd pull it off

    To PFIEL, are you seriously going to attack them for not playing more songs from 15 years ago? They played a decent amount of tracks from every album. I'll admit I would've preferred Just or Fade Out instead of Planet Telex, but that's because they're some songs that weren't the generic brit-rock that was on those first two albums. I'm much happier that they focused on albums like Kid A, Amnesiac and In Rainbows. I'm sure if they could play a 4 hour set then they'd be able to fit in more 'classics'.

    It looks like I'm on my own here and I'll probably get slated by the die hard fans but I was very disappointed. I travelled all the way from Birmingham for this gig and only got to hear 3 songs from their best and most inconic two albums. Where were Just, My Iron Lung, No Suprises, Karma Police, Creep etc etc etc. I wasn't on my own either. The amount of people I heard moaning on the way out was unbelieveable. Radiohead have got to be careful with these seemingly self indulgent set lists because fans like me will simply stop blindly buying albums just because its them, which (lets face it) is what most of us now do. I am not normally so negative so I guess I'll have to cheer myself up and remember the excellent Nando's I had before the gig at the Printworks. That, I'm afraid, was the highlight of my 4 hour round trip!!

    They could have stuck another £100 on ticket price and it still would have been well worth it. Incredible. And apologies to the people in the front row who had to put up with the sight of me snogging some random girl for the last 20 mins, but I was a bit tipsy and she was hot, it would have been rude not to.

    One of the best gigs I've ever been to, only just sunk in now that I've finally seen them after being unable to go four years ago. Got to the 3rd row too so being able to watch Jonny from up close was a dream come true. I thought most of the people seemed pretty receptive, although I do concur that some were too concerned with taking pictures / didn't really know half of the material, etc. What I really liked was how many people were totally mesmerised (including myself) to the point that, if they were dancing at all, it was almost subconscious. Really spectacular.

    Really good gig, and one of the best ones I've been to. Even got to meet Colin in Piccadilly Records before the gig which was cool. I got to hear my favourite tracks from all of their albums live (with the exception of Kid A and Bodysnatchers) and the guys seem to really get a kick out of coming back to the UK and the crowd being so receptive.

    Caribou did a great support also, Bowls was the highlight of his set, it's still in my head as I type this.

    I went absolutely bonkers when the outro of Everything in it's right place turned into Idioteque, I managed to break away from all the iphone wielding snoozers and get in the dance pit right at the front. Really awesome show, the only problem with Radiohead is the sheer quantity of songs, they could've played a set of 24 different songs and it would've been just as good. Would've liked to see some 15 Step, 2+2=5, Optimistic, Packt Like Sardines, I could go on. But I can't argue with the set they played. Goosebumps during The Daily Mail.

    Hot damn, this was a good show. Only thing that ruined it for me were the people who only showed up because Radiohead are a popular band and they can say they've seen them, there were people sat there blank-faced, playing with their phones during Paranoid Android and Idioteque.
