Radiohead, 8 Oct 2012, O2, London

A superbly structured set of material drawn heavily from their post-Kid A albums, as well as recent singles such as Daily Mail, which was an early stand-out. The sound was the best I've heard at an arena show and the light and video show was mesmerising. They really added to the experience, especially as the Radiohead audience seem to be near-universally tall and so the band were only visible in brief glimpses. The whole band were on great form and the tunes were kept short and taut. Opening Everything in its Right Place with a snippet of REM's One I Love was a nice touch to round off the set. A really enjoyable evening.
