Where did you get the list?

Their publicist emailed it to me. It's real. Real lame, that is. Charlotte, but not Portland?

On their last "mini" tour, where they played a venue in LA that only seated 8,000, the tickets reportedly sold out in less than 9 seconds. I was on 5 computers continuously refreshing until the tickets went live just to try to get 2 tickets, and still could not buy a seat. However, within 2 minutes, I could buy a ticket for $890 from an asshole in Boise Idaho who was able to buy for the sole purpose of scalping.

Ah, capitalism.

And while Santa Barbara is an awesome venue...Santa Barbara and not Portland? Wahuh?

I saw them in Santa Barbara on the Amnesiac tour and seeing them in that small-ish 3,000 person venue was awesome. But still, why no Portland? Do we just not have the right sized venue?

Have Radiohead EVER played Portland?
If so, when?

I've seen them twice, but had to go to Seattle both times.

I believe they played La Luna, way back in the Pablo Honey days. Not sure if there has been anything since then.

I've lived here since '99 and the only place I can recall them playing in that time is the Gorge.

They played La Luna on The Bends tour and the Salem Armory on the OK Computer tour.

Go jump in the Pacific you elitist snob. Please don't reproduce.

Yes, we don't have the right sized rock venue. Big, neglected issue. Really, you're Radiohead's booker, you want to play Portland, where do you play?

Yeah, I remember the Armory show, I think they played with Spiritualized.

From The San Jose Mercury 1/9/08
"This North American tour itinerary listed San Francisco as the local stop, but it seems more probable that the band would actually play in another Bay Area city - one that is usually lumped under the "City By the Bay" heading. The most likely venues are Oracle Arena in Oakland, HP Pavilion in San Jose, Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View and the U.C. Greek Theatre in Berkeley (which is where the band played during its last visit to the Bay Area, during a two-night stand in 2006)."

Wait...doesn't Vancouver have a big outdoor arena? Radiohead in the 'Couve

Good point #13 - since this was posted as the "USA Tour" you could argue that Vancouver refers to the Clark County Fairgrounds. I mean, if they're posting Tampa....

where was that place they played in late summer of 2003 - it wasn't the gorge and wasn't clark county ampitheater... can't remember what the place was called. But Malkmus opened, and radiohead was amazing. it was definitely a drive but a nice enough venue. Nicer than Tampa.

i live in tampa, it's pretty bad here but at least i get to see radiohead! :D
