I just heard that Radiohead is playing DC June 3rd (no venue info, probably Verizon). Does anyone know of any other East Coast dates leading up to Roo? Supposedly they are getting announced next week...

****setlist spoiler for those who don't want to know (in case we are still doing this)****
I don't follow Radiohead's tours as much as some of you all here. I was wondering about how they have been opening with "Bloom." I know that when I saw them on the Hail to the Thief tour that they would alternate between "There There," "The Gloaming," and "2+2=5" as the set opener. Does anyone have any information or speculation that they might mix up the set opener on this tour, or are they going with "Bloom" the full way?

I think they'll get an extra half hour at Roo for an extra 5 songs or so. Im sure they'll use those 5 to pull some of the big ones out (Karma Police, Paranoid Android, National Anthem)

Well, if they pull a Pearl Jam, they can just play for 3+hours and make all 80K of us happy campers. I mean, I'd be down for that.

Yep I'm in total agreement with Houston getting the win. They also played everything from TKOL, 15 Step, and Paranoid Android! If they're going to cut The Daily Mail and Staircase in exchange for awesome songs, nothing wrong with that. My only complaints are no Bodysnatchers, National Anthem, Karma Police, and Street Spirit. Still, looks like they're gonna be switching between 15 Step and Bodysnatchers, EIIRP and TNA, and PA with the other two on any given night.
I'd say: Houston >> Miami > Tampa >> Atlanta (even though they're all good)
Yeah I love The Daily Mail and Staircase but they're not every night kind of songs, I'm a bit sick of 'em at this point. If they get a longer set (2.5-3 hours) I'd be more than happy with them playing them, but if we only get a 2 hr set I'd rather get some other songs. I don't know how I didn't realize but last night was definitely light on the Kid A tracks. Would've liked some more of that. I'm hoping they'll bust out a few other Kid A tracks on this tour, maybe Optimistic or HTDC.

I would honestly start to cry in the middle of the farm if they played how to disappear completely. That song is amazing
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know you realize that life goes fast - It's hard to make the good things last-you realize the sun doesn't go down - It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
That first encore at Houston is just about as good as it gets from my perspective. And the Paranoid Android closer is an epic kind of way to end a show.

WOW Houston setlist is incredible. Paranoid Android, the best In Rainbows songs, These Are My Twisted Words, Airbag... if only it wasn't so light on Kid A and wasn't lacking anything off the Bends. But this is as close to perfect as it's gotten so far.
