Radiohead At Outside Lands Festival

For those of you who weren't as fortunate as me to see Radiohead live in San Francisco the other night, here is a clip of the one of the best songs they performed:

Although I admit the sound outages were a pain in the ass, the overall performance, music and visuals were amazing. As you can see in the song above "Talk Show Host", during some songs there were camera's focused on each band member making for an amazing experience.

During the beginning of the song "Videotape" there was a camera placed right in front of Thom Yorke's face on his piano. This made for some interesting projections that even Thom couldn't help but break out laughing, almost falling out of his seat.

The typical foggy, summer San Francisco weather made the first night performance in Golden Gate Park's history a perfect match an complimented Radiohead's melodic sound. I am counting the days until they return to play when there isn't a curfew to abide by.

Here was the set list:
1. 15 Step
2. Reckoner
3. Airbag
4. There There
5. All I Need
6. Nude
7. Talk Show Host
8. National Anthem

10. Videotape
11. Weird Fishes/Arpeggi
12. Idioteque 13. Karma Police
14. Jigsaw Falling Into Place
15. Just
16. Exit Music (for a film)
17. Bodysnatchers
Encore:
18. Pyramid Song
19. You And Whose Army?
20. Paranoid Android 2
1. Fake Plastic Trees
22. Everything In Its Right Place
