radiogood

Last night was radiohead at the Superpages.com Center (previously known as the Smirnoff Music Centre, which was previously known as the Starplex, which was originally known as the Coca-Cola Starplex). This was my second time at this venue. I saw Weezer from the lawn years ago. What I learned from that experience is that being on the lawn sucks butt.

So for radiohead, I tried my best to get awesome tickets. As a result I ended up with a pair for Houston that I sold on Stubhub.com, and another pair for Dallas that I ended up selling to Surren. I ended up using Long’s set of tickets, because his seats were more in the center and a bit closer. Though at the end of the night Long was complaining that he wanted to be more off center and a bit further back. Long’s a giant baby though, I thought our seats were awesome.

So this was my first time seeing radiohead. So as you can imagine, I had pretty big, almost insurmountable, expectations.

And you know, for the most part, they were met. radiohead put on a perfectly cromulent performance. Like it was good, but not great. But don’t get me wrong, it was pretty amazingly good. Like constantly flirting between the line of good and awesome. It needed something there that would push it into awesome. My guess, I needed something.

Thinking about it now (as I’m typing this), I wish all concerts were that almost awesome.

I took pictures

Not very good pictures

And I sorta stopped after awhile cause, I was pretty enthralled by the goodness

I really enjoyed the LED lights.
