Everything in it's right place

Radiohead, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco CA 08/22/08

Went to see Radiohead with Kubi last night.

Most of our Burning Man group are super-fans, but couldn't be there because they are already on the Playa preparing for the Burn. Kubi and I were the lucky ones so I couldn't miss this show.

We rolled a couple of doobs(I did good). We took a cab to the park and walked the rest of the way(once we hit the huge crowds). I still had to buy my ticket so Kubs went in with the plan to meet before the show started(not likely).

The quwe was like disneyland, you could not see the end. It took an hour so I missed Beck. I would have liked to see Beck(esspecially after dishing out 90$).

I got to the mainstage a few minutes before the show started, Kubi and I did not meet up till after.

The show was great(except for two, that's TWO audio cut outs) The band was awesome. Thom York even apologized later in the show for the technical dificulties, "...but it's about the music, right?".

Some standout songs Talk Show Host, Fake Plastic Trees, Videotape(all of the In Rainbows tracks were awesome).

I had to block my deaf ear because some jackass beside me wanted to mumble along to Karma Police, it has words asshole.

I just closed my eyes and absorbed the vibes being sent my way from the band. I like to rock out at shows, which can be awkward for the mannequins standing around me.

They closed of course, with Everything in it's right Place, amazing. There was a giant screen behind them that scrolled EVERYTHING across over and over.

I met up with Kubi after the show and we burned a doob, trainwreck.

The crowd was insane. So many people, it was impossible to get away after, the crowed can only move in one direction (or swim in the ocean).
