Radiohead hasn’t toured in six years, so when their brief North American tour was announced, I knew that I’d do what was necessary to catch one of their shows.
“What was necessary” turned out to be a road trip from Chicago to Cincinnati for the night. And boy was it worth every mile. The setlist pulled from their expansive 26+ years of songs, but favored tracks from 2000’s Kid A and 2003’s Hail to the Thief.
It was a beautiful evening, capped off with a crowd sing-a-long to “Karma Police” to end the show. “For a minute there / I lost myself…”
