DYHT Halloween 08

We have to agree with Tad on this one. The Hold Steady Guitarist told BBC 6 Music that “I think they’ve lost the plot,” he said. “What are they doing? Where are they going? What’s happening? I don’t get it any more. They lost me. And we have to agree a little bit. We saw Radiohead twice in 2004 when they brought their rock to the Hollywood bowl and Coachella. Now it seems fans of In Rainbows are basically fans of Radiohead of yesteryear. Like “remember… OK Computer? Yeah , that shit was banging”, “How’s the new record In Rainbows” “I don’t know but I hope they play ‘Exit Music’ tonight” And that’s cool man… that’s cool. It’s nostalgic the way Pearl Jam fans were really into them in Junior High school but still go to every show in hope to hear “Jeremy”….Not gonna happen. Or when people say Atlas Shrugged “changed my life”but if you asked same person what the book was about they will stare at their shoes for a while until you get them to admit that they never finished it.

Did you finish “In Rainbows”? We didn’t.
