Radiohead triumphed on the first date of their UK tour last night at London's Victoria Park, despite playing a set devoid of many of their biggest hits.

Playing in front of their free Tibet flags and impressive tubular LED lighting display, the band kick-started their set with '15 Step', before launching into fellow In Rainbows tracks 'Bodysnatchers' and 'All I Need.'

As always Thom Yorke kept the crowd interaction at a minimum only greeting the crowd with “Alright!” two songs in.

The set picked up pace with 'The National Anthem' after which Thom told a woman in the crowd “I love you too darling” to great applause.

A relatively rare outing of Dollars and Cents was followed by a glorious 'Just' and later a spine-tingling 'Climbing Up The Walls.'

Introducing 'The Reckoner', Yorke said “This is our peace tune, kind of please let it not be the end of everything song.” The crowd then chanted “Free Tibet” in reference to the flags on the stage.

As it got darker, the set grew in intensity. The band relied on predominately down-tempo tracks  like 'Videotape' and a stunning 'How To Disappear Completely' that suited the ambience perfectly.

Midway through the encore, Thom proclaimed "somebody is going to hit this drunkit... me", before taking over Phil Selway on drumming duties for 'Bangers & Mash.'

For the final encore, the band played Thom Yorke's solo track 'Cymbal Rush', which appeared on his 2006 album 'The Eraser', before Yorke played 'You and Whose Army' on his own, staring intensely into the camera.

It was the final song – an abrasive techno-tinged 'Idioteque' – that undoubtedly provided the highlight of the evening.
