   Goddammit, I hate those selfish twats! I go to a lot (I mean, a LOT) of concerts, and this seems to be happening more and more. Perhaps it’s just because I’m getting a little older, — Hey, you kids, get offa my lawn! — but it seems like those same self-involved douchebags are at many of the shows I go to now. And, what’s worse, if you ask them to quiet down and be a little conscious of those around them, they act like YOU’RE the asshole. Bastards!

   Um, not that I feel strongly about this, or anything.

   Hahaha! You totally hit the nail on the head! I absolutely hate going to concerts and have “poseur” fans yell shit out, talk incessantly, or just act like they personal invited the band to play just for them.

   P.S. I burn in jealousy that you even got to see Radiohead live.

   This is oh-so-reminiscent of an experience I had recently: http://missionmission.wordpress.com/2008/04/07/light-on-the-douchebag-please/

   I don’t know about you but I went on the Wednesday and what I found weird was people applauding false endings in some songs as if they’ve finished. Have these people ever actually listened to the records?

   I must say I have never got My Bloody Valentine, It just sounds like a racket to me. yeah I was there on wednesday - it seemed like 70% of the crowd just heard up to OK computer, and another 10% only heard some singles off The Bends. I actually heard people shout for Creep!

   I have to admit I’m not Radiohead geek by any means - but when i have paid £50 for a ticket and I know everyone else has I know its time to shut the fuck up.

   So true.

   You’ll be glad to know however, that I have virtually no memory of the 90s.

    Your website doesn’t load for me anymore, well at-least not with safari, I just gave firefox a go, and that worked fine. So anyway, because it hasn’t been loading, I haven’t been reading it. But now that I’m using firefox I got to read this one about radiohead. So here’s the thing, do you know that song by Breaks called “hi how are you?” I think it probably sums up your radiohead experience.
