New Radiohead album release date denied

From the NME:

Radiohead have denied their album will be released on August 6 despite an internet retailer listing that release date.

According to the listing on Amazon.co.uk, it was claimed that the record, described as ‘New Album – TBC’ would be released via EMI Records.

However a spokesperson for Radiohead has denied that this is the case.

As previously reported, the band fulfilled its contract with the label with their last album, ‘Hail To The Thief’ in 2003, and a new deal or label has not yet been announced.

New Radiohead Album – August 6th?

According to Amazon.co.uk it is.

I wouldn’t rely too heavily on this but it does make for some fun discussion. Also, did you see that EMI is listed as the label? Interesting….

Over at Dead Air Space, Thom’s latest post lets us know that it was an “eventful” week.

now that was a long and eventful week
sheesh
and it ain over
wakey wakey
rise and shine
its on again off again on again
watch me fall like dominoes
in pretty patterns
Thom

What made this week more eventful than others? Oh we love to look too deep in to things. It’s probably due to the LOST fever we have. Or maybe it’s because Radiohead did re-sign with EMI. Which they did. Or maybe not. Haha… 😉

More discussion over at our message board, Mortigi Tempo.

No Vegas show/Ticketmaster sucks

So, as we expected, the story about Radiohead performing in Las Vegas on March 1 is untrue. W.A.S.T.E. made a statement this morning concerning the “bogus” show.

It has come to w.a.s.t.e’s attention that tickets for a bogus show on the 1st March 2006 in Las Vegas have been sold over the weekend by Ticketmaster.

There is no such show and we are currently investigating why this has happened. We would recommend that those who have purchased these tickets go back to the seller to organise refunds.

Unfortunately, there have been fans that bought tickets after Ticketmaster telling them that Radiohead were indeed playing Bally’s on March 1. The Bally’s box office had no clue about the show and directed all questions to TM. We are now hearing from some fans that Ticketmaster is REFUSING refunds to this bogus show. Though the concert was advertised to be a Radiohead show on Ticketmaster’s website, it is really for the Jubilee dinner show which, according to TM, is now sold out (probably because everyone was thinking it was Radiohead) and they refuse to do refunds on sold out shows.

We seriously hope that we are misinformed and that Ticketmaster will do the right thing and refund tickets.

UPDATE: This was sent to us by Rooch20: “I just spoke to Ticketmaster and they are investigating this. Everyone will get their money back. They just need to get to the bottom of this and then will contact the people who bought tickets….like me!”

What? Radiohead in Vegas March 1? Hmm…

One of our faithful readers alerted us to a listing on Ticketmaster.com that has Radiohead performing on March 1, 2006 at Bally’s. We at Green Plastic would love for this to be true, though our gut and common sense is telling us that it is a mistake. The listing mentions something about this being part of the Jubilee series which apparently is a Las Vegas topless showgirls dinner show. We just can’t see Radiohead doing something like this.
(thanks to Bryan)

UPDATE: Ticketmaster has changed the above link to the Jubilee concert show. Read here for more info…

New RH album?

Well, you know we at GP just love rumors so if you don’t, please don’t read this. 😉

There is rumor floating around that Radiohead may release an album full of b-sides as early as Spring 2002. It is also rumored that somehow fans may choose the tracklisting of this album on the band’s official website.

This is not the first time this rumor has popped up. Ed O’Brien was quoted back in August saying that they were thinking about doing something like this.

Right now, it remains a rumor and we’ll just have to wait and see. Don’t go crazy just yet.

Stay tuned!

More Radiohead Dates?

Please take into consideration that this is all unconfirmed by Radiohead and their management.

You can apparently order tickets for two Radiohead shows in Berlin on July 3 and 4, 2000, by going to eventim.de (just type in “Radiohead” at the search engine at the top).Nothing has been announced officially. Be on the lookout for more European dates to pop up over the next few weeks. (thanks to Jan)

In other tour news, an unconfirmed source is claiming that Radiohead will be taking part in the Roskilde Festival, June 29 – July 2, 2000, in Denmark. We are still waiting confirmation so don’t go all crazy yet!

Radiohead Mentioned in Chats
Radiohead was mentioned in two chats earlier this week with David Gilmour and Roger Waters, both used to be in Pink Floyd. Here’s the excerpts:

MSNLive: People have compared Pink Floyd to Radiohead and Bush and Manson and others – are there any bands that you think carry on your tradition?
David Gilmour: I think some of those bands are creating their own tradition. I think Radiohead are great but I don’t think they need us, for their own path.
MSN Live
“Roy Harper” whispers to MSNLive: How do you feel about the comparisons Radiohead draw with Pink Floyd? also: “MR Jones” whispers to MSNLive: Radiohead has been compared frequently to Pink Floyd. What do you think of their music?
Mr. Roger Waters: I don’t know Radiohead’s work because I don’t listen that much to other people but people tell me they are a great band.
