Green Plastic Radiohead

Some good news for people planning to catch Radiohead at the upcoming Field Day Festival:

From Field Day Executive Producer Andrew Dreskin: “This is an amazing win for Field Day. Not only did the judge review our environmental submission and find it solid, but he also reviewed our transportation, security, medical and sanitation plans, and found them solid, professional and workable.
“He gave a resounding defeat to the party who brought this lawsuit, telling him he not only failed to get to first base but he never made it out of the batter’s box. We are delighted and are seeking to move forward quickly to insure that the music will be heard at Field Day and that we can receive our permits in the days to come.”
The details of the New York State Supreme Court’s decision, in favor of Field Day, will be available to the public this Monday, June 2.

Radiohead were guests on the Jonathan Ross show. Thom and Jonny were first introduced while sitting in a back room on a sofa with Shania Twain. Once the other guest interviews were finished the band played “There There” (with Ed and Jonny on drums too), after which Thom and Jonny were interviewed. During the interview they readily agreed to perform as the UK entrant to the Eurovision Song Contest (a Europe wide, very cheesy, pop competition in which points are awarded by the voting public of each partaking country), and Thom was told that he looked like someone that Fagin (from Oliver Twist) would have in his gang of pickpockets!! The band then performed a marvellous rendition of “Fake Plastic Trees” to finish the show. Below are some screenshots. Click on each one to enlarge.
