Radiohead Week - 2

When the news broke on Monday morning two alternatives presented themselves; either one could abstain from Radiohead for five days, distract oneself, minimize the anticipation, and approach The King of Limbs fresh, or one could re-immerse oneself in everything Radiohead: trawl the website, become an AtEase bum, return to Mortigi Tempo, delve the archives at the Radiohead Discography, analyze old setlists at 58Hours, even scalp around eBay looking to kick-start the old collection. As if you needed confirmation, I fell straight into the latter. It is Radiohead week on the blog, and a week of Radiohead it shall be. Scouring for bargains on eBay has already shot two holes in my wallet. I picked up a mint promo copy of Phil Selway’s first single, By Some Miracle, and a copy of the Airbag/How’s My Driving EP, which, I’m assured, is in “very good” condition. I already have two copies of the Airbag EP, and I imagine they’ll both be in better nick than the one on its way, but hey, it was only 4 dollars, and that’s what being a fanboy faggot is all about. Before I know it I'll be buying Japanese promo editions of Amnesiac on minidisk.
