Maybe he led a second life as an obscure and unknown prog musician, though this is quite hard to imagine. I'll checkout the "Unsigned bands" and "Welcome artists" sections one of these days .

Can't wait to see who pickets his funeral.



Probably his own people. They just can't help it at this point.

I've discussed this with chat buds.  We are all pretty much in agreement that the best thing to do is to ignore that publicity whore, but I bet there are some vets out there will repay the "favors" the WBC did to them.

Aside from Pablo Honey, all of Radiohead's albums are at least great IMO. So far beyond mediocre in my eyes. Tongue

I see, they're actually big Radiohead fans upset about their new album. LOL

What exactly do you mean by "go"? LOL  The sanity train left the station a long time ago.

I don't understand why this sect protest: do they blame Radiohead for some political/social/philosophical reason or only because they don't like the music?

I know that Black Sabbath or the Sex Pistols had problems when touring, but their adversaries throw some (more or less) focused reasons.
