air guitar), Oasis' Liam and Noel Gallagher, Blur's Damon Albarn,

May 10
- This is here for your pure enjoyment. A few months back a message was sent to the Radiohead mailing list which might or might not have been written by Thom. I like to believe
it was him... even if wasn't it's kind of amusing anyway.. so take THIS and take THAT. (btw- they're my second favorite band.. they're so HOT!!!)
May 8
- The Opera House show in Toronto sold out in less than a minute! Let this be a warning to anyone who wants to go to a Radiohead concert...
get some inside connections and get them fast!
- In my opinion, this is one of the most frightening articles ever written about Radiohead.
May 6

- And Thom's views about love (for the ladies):
"The director of R&J thought that TSH was the perfect counter-weight for the
surrealistic narrators in the movie. He is probably right. There's a Romeo
part in me. I am just as crazy as he is. When I am in love, it's all or
nothing. Time after time I end up banging my head against the wall, but do
you think that this sentimental fool will ever learn ? No!"
