And I can't stop watching that gif above.

Apparently having the bends makes you very hungry.

 

[corianderstem]

For cookies!

Now I want to see Cookie Monster singing it.

"Cookie's got the bennnnnnnds!"

Oscar could sing Creep for an encore.

And Kermit ... well, the resemblance is uncanny.

 

[u2popmofo]

Now I'm hungry for cookies. Then again, I'm probably always hungry for cookies. I just try to not think about it.

 

[corianderstem]

Get some cookies with fruit in them, or you'll get the bends.



.... oh wait, that's scurvy.

 

[LemonMelon]

I really need a window in my office. I'm getting scurvy up here!

 

[joyfulgirl]

The gifs are hysterical.

 

[LemonMelon]

Thom Yorke's just jealous he isn't a bestselling poet

The whole goddam post wins for best post of the first half of the year.

 

[corianderstem]

I WON! I WON!

I'm going to start planning how I'm going to spend my prize money!

*awaits news that will surely not be disappointing in any way*

Oh God my eyes

I don't know how you Utahns pronounce "dough", but that does not work at all in my country.

Went to the Montreal show last night, and what an awesome time it was. My seat was not quite side stage, six rows up, with a perfect view of everything that went on. It was the best douchebag seat I've ever had, although not that I've had many, mind you.

I didn't get FPT, but was pleased nonetheless. The lighting and stage set-up was beautiful, I thought.

I thought the trio of The Gloaming, Separator, and I Might be Wrong worked real well. Other standouts for me were Nude, Pyramid Song, Reckoner, Lotus Flower, Idioteque, and Paranoid Android, which was amazing as usual.

But it was the final two songs, particularly Street Spirit, that sealed this show as one of the best I've seen in a while.

1. Bloom2. There There
3. Kid A
4. Morning Mr. Magpie
5. The Gloaming
6. Separator
7. I Might Be Wrong
8. Staircase
9. Pyramid Song
10. Climbing Up the Walls
11. Nude
12. Lotus Flower
13. Paranoid Android
14. Feral
15. Little By Little
16. Idioteque
Encore No. 1:
17. How to Disappear Completely
18. The Daily Mail
19. Myxomatosis
20. Reckoner
Encore No. 2:
21. All I Need
22. Street Spirit (Fade Out)
23. True Love Waits/ Everything In Its Right Place

[joyfulgirl]

Nice! Like that second encore trio very much. And your seat sounds exactly like my Phoenix seat.

 

[djerdap]

That's one of the better setlists this tour.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Yeah, seems to have a nice flow to it with upbeat songs at the right places.

 

[BoMac]

Saddened by what happened in Toronto. Horrible.

 

[corianderstem]

No kidding. Just awful.

 

[nielsgov]

Wow. Stage collapses are seemingly becoming trend lately.

 

[FitzChivalry]

Not to take away from today's sad happening, but . . . .



I just wanted to wish a very happy 15th birthday to, probably, my #2 favorite album of all-time!!!!!

 

[joyfulgirl]

Reading through the posts over in atease....this is so horrible.

 

[Danny Boy]

I never did hear, was the deceased one of the stage setup crew?

 

[joyfulgirl]

This article refers to a "stagehand."

I wonder if they have a union? At any rate, I hope some improvement in safety standards comes out of this.
