More Radiohead Discussion

[nielsgov]

Haha. Thanks for the heads-up anyway.

 

[last unicorn]

Don't miss Caribou.

True

In Berlin, Caribou came on stage around 7.30, Radiohead around 8.30, the set was finished around 10.45. It was cold, not really open air season for this part of Europe any more.

 

[LemonMelon]

Caribou played a short set here, like a half hour, so make sure you get there early and don't miss any of it. It ruled. Odessa is on some weird trancy shit live, but it works great.

 

[MoodyJ]

Thanks for the advice. He plays Odessa I hope?

It was in the set for the shows that I saw in May and June.

I missed the ACL performance but I DVR'd it. I'll sit down to watch it one night this week.

I got back late yesterday afternoon from Oktoberfest in Leavenworth. I didn't have time last night to watch ACL, but I did copy the transport stream from my DVR over to my computer so I can rip the audio.

Turns out this is 5.1 channel AC3, which certainly makes things more complicated. I've gotten as far as ripping each of the 6 audio channels to AIFF files, but I still need to downmix them to stereo.

I wish I wasn't so anal about such things, but I have to say I enjoy it at the same time.

 

[u2popmofo]

That sounds extremely time consuming. I will happily listen to your final effort to judge the merits of your work when finished.

 

[djerdap]

That was a pretty good set. Bloom, Identikit and Feral being the highlights.

I would have thought that would violate your personal code of ethics, but I'll be happy to pass it along for technical review purposes only, provided you promise not to enjoy the actual performance.

I'm very pleased to have a professionally recorded version of Identikit. Hopefully we will have a studio version at some point.

If ACL sold audio of their shows, I'd buy them. In most all cases, I'd much rather just have the audio than DVD / Bluray of concerts.

Yes. Thousand times yes.

 

[lazarus]

You can rip that audio from a DVD fairly easily.

 

[u2popmofo]

Teach us the ways.

 

[Danny Boy]

Just download DVD Audio Extractor. It's pretty much automatic. Comment withdrawn.

 

[u2popmofo]

Don't tell me what to do.

 

[Danny Boy]

OK

 

[u2popmofo]

JK, DB. JK.

I'll have to see if that's supported on Mac. Now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever even put a DVD in my present computer.

 

[Danny Boy]

I just ripped the audio from the pbs.org video. It's stereo, 96 kbps AAC. It sounds OK, but you can definitely hear that it's lossy. Hopefully my downmix of the TV broadcast will sound better.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Broken hearts make it rain.

 

[Aygo]

Is it my impression or O'Brien and Greenwood are playing in different keys the whole "Myxomatosis"? One of them sounds out of key...

Jesse strikes me as more of a Skrillex fan

Anyone can make good meth, and they won't be a nothing anymore.

He deals in meth

He likes to say "Yeah, bitch!" and "Yo!"

This was my thought at first glance

 

[FitzChivalry]

Saw the set list from last night's show at O2 Arena. Looked pretty sweet.

 

[last unicorn]

I listened to the bootleg of the second Berlin show yesterday and today while doing correction work. Sadly, I can't found a bootleg for the first Berlin show. During the second one, Thom was talking much more, mostly complaining about the cold and what an "idiotic idea" it was playing an outside show in October (sic! it still was September). That's what you get for postponing summer shows in Central Europe into fall. It was fresh in Berlin, but it really wasn't THAT cold. Come on, they're from England, they should be insensitive to temperature.

Just got a bunch of ecstatic texts from my sister post-London's show tonight.

That setlist sucks. Good thing you didn't go.

Spoiler

Does that help at all?

 

[djerdap]

The setlist for the first London show was better.

Spoiler

Does that help a bit?

 

[joyfulgirl]

Now she's off to Paris where she'll see them again.

Seriously, I'm glad she had a killer setlist and seats by the stage. She deserved it, after years of bad RH luck.
