Beth writes in to say…
“Went to see Oxford based band Dive Dive at the Zodiac and lo and behold, Phil Selway came onstage and drummed the two final songs alongside Nigel (ex unbelievable Truth). Much vigorous handshaking prevailed…”
At Ease tracked down some pictures of the event, which you can see here.

From the Free Tibet Campaign’s official site:

Free Tibet Campaign is thrilled to offer the first original artwork ever to be made available for sale by long term Radiohead collaborators Dr T. Tchock and Stanley Donwood. As fans of the award winning band will know, Donwood is a major contributor to Radiohead, having produced the artwork for the band’s albums since their My Iron Lung EP in collaboration with “Dr. Tchock” aka Radiohead frontman, Thom Yorke.

Universally considered to be one of the greatest rock bands in the world, Grammy award winning Radiohead have realised phenomenal, multi-platinum success worldwide, having topped the charts in England, the USA, France, Japan, Canada, Israel, Ireland and Iceland. The band have championed many worthwhile causes, and are long term supporters of Free Tibet Campaign and the Tibetan cause.
We are delighted Stanley Donwood and Dr Tchock have created this fabulously detailed, signed and sealed, original piece for the Panchen Lama, and expect this piece of art and music history to make a real impact in the auction.

The art is 22″ x 30″, and is ink on paper. Starting price is 600 pounds, but if you can somehow swing it, you get a great piece of original art as well as the feeling that comes from donating to a truly awesome cause.

There’s an article in this week’s Times Higher Education Supplement on The Music and Art of Radiohead, the book Green Plastic friend Joseph Tate edited. Several contributors were interviewed as well, including Paul Lansky whose music was sampled on “Idioteque.”
