After months of waiting, radiohead was finally here. Me and a few of my friends headed down to cruzan, formerly sound advice, with some jaeger, some whiskey, and some blizzys, all set for a life changing experience. But none of us could have even imagined what was in store for us. I have never felt anything like it before in my life. Liars started it off and they were great, i urge everyone to check them out if they’re ever in your area.
from the second radiohead started til the end, i could not stop feeling the energy. It was insane. I was in constant motion. the noise they create is unreal. Seeing Radiohead IS an experience. They started with the new fan favorite “All I Need” then went into “BodySnatchers”. it was heaven from there on out.
The next day i was marveling at how awesome radiohead was, truly awesome.
Me and my friend Danny began to construct a plan of how we could drive to tampa that night and see radiohead again. After hours of planning, i had it layed out for us. i had the car, the cash, the balls…….everything i needed. except an accomplice, for danny had bitched out, and no one else would go with me. in a quick decision, i left alone, to meet up with my friend rachel and a ticket waiting for me. i got there in the nicholas of time, during their third song . pretty sure it was “Weird Fishes”. Which kept me sprinting from the car to my spot on the lawn. (not before a few rushed chugs of that previously-mentioned jaeger)
it was a strange feeling being at radiohead once again, 24 hours later. let me tell you, it was worth it.
the show did not compare to the west palm show however, which is understandable. it was their first concert since that tour with bonnaroo a couple years ago. the energy level was through the outdoor roof!
i made it back home by 5:30 AM, making it without a cellphone, and no real directions except for some scribble a friend of a friend wrote down on a denny’s waitress slip. stayed up all night and went to school.
the next two days were a daze. i don’t think i’ve ever been that out of it before.
Radiohead drove me to insanity, and i thank them.
i love them more than ever.
