Radiohead/ Asian Dub Foundation
SECC
Glasgow
November 30, 2003

Radiohead are consistently voted the best band on the planet and they showed exactly why at Glasgow's SECC last night.

And it would take a severe case of amnesia to fail to recall that this band have produced a string of great albums, from The Bends to OK Computer and latest offering Hail To The Thief.

The only band who come close to Radiohead's live power are U2 and there are few higher compliments.

Fronted by Thom Yorke, they played plenty of tracks from their latest album, such as '2+2=5', 'Backdrifts', 'The Gloaming' and 'Miximatosis'.

But there was still room for old favourites 'Paranoid Android' and 'Fake Plastic Trees' which left the capacity crowd in ecstasy.

Despite what some say, there's nothing unlistenable about Radiohead. They are awesome and in a league of their own.
