Since I'm playing catch up and enjoy writing these so much, I'm going to share a few extra this evening. As usual, open the link below in a new window to play the track whilst you hear my story.
I've gone for something more melancholy and another band that played at Reading Festival in 2009. This time, I've even managed to find the recording of the actual event. I remember at the time thinking that they weren't very good and sounded terribly out of tune. And listening to the track now as I type this, my ears certainly didn't deceive me. So if you want a version that Thom Yorke didn't butcher, here it is...
I was so disappointed with their performance, I left early and headed home. I think it's the only time I've ever done that at Reading Festival and it was worth it to dodge the crush that normally happens when things end.
