Second series of streaming shows from archives via Radiohead Public Library
Radiohead announces a new series of archival live shows to be streamed from the Radiohead Public Library vaults. Each edition will premiere on Radiohead’s YouTube channel Fridays at 8 pm BST for seven weeks beginning this Friday, April 9th.
The first of the new episodes will be a seldom-seen January 16, 2008 in-store-performance-turned-impromptu-club-show from London’s 93ft East.
The January 16, 2008 show was originally intended to be an in-store performance at London record store Rough Trade East to mark the conventional release of the In Rainbows album — a plan that went awry when hordes of fans and overwhelming media coverage caught the attention of the local authorities. The entire production had to be torn down and a replacement venue found on a moment’s notice. The show ultimately happened at 93ft East, a club with a capacity of a few hundred that was thankfully available for the night. The result was an electric and intimate Radiohead performance like no other, one largely unseen since — until now.
In other news, for a limited time Radiohead will be making available a Radiohead crew T-shirt — the same original shirts distributed to touring and local crew — with proceeds benefitting a range of stage & crew organizations supported at #WeMakeEvents.
