I just saw it, and visually speaking it was pretty bad. The band looked awful Jonny with his outrageous mop top and tight mini t shirt, Colin with his pony tail and blazer and he took it off to reveal a tight sparkly t shirt, Ed looked like someone from Suede, Thom and Phil looked normal though. The lights had the amazing variety of red and blue (also seizure inducing strobe lights). Other than that there is nothing to complain about, here you have a young bad about to embark on great things. Most of the songs they played were first time performances of songs that would be on The Bends (I think they may have played more Bends songs than they did Pablo Honey songs which isn’t a bad thing). But I think the crowd didnt appreciate the slower songs for example after playing fake plastic trees Thom comments "I see most of you are falling asleep so..." then the band rushes into Just. Its a great watch for a Radiohead fan. I would completely love it if they released a In Rainbows live DVD. Seeing it on a 50" HD TV with all those colors, it would be a wet dream come true.
