    Radiohead End London Residency With 'Greatest Hits'

    Radiohead appeared to bow to the pressure of their fans last night (June 25th) as they ended their two night run in London's Victoria Park.

    The band were criticised following their show on Tuesday for playing a set devoid of many of their biggest hits. 

    Last night, however, saw outings for the better known 'Paranoid Android', 'The National Anthem' and 'The Bends'.

    Radiohead's highly anticipated European tour, which kicked off in Dublin earlier this month, has not been without criticism.

    While many have attacked the band for choosing to play so many tracks from their latest album 'In Rainbows', as they continued to do so last night, others have questioned the “challenging” eco-friendly guidelines given to fans. 

    The stipulations, which are designed to minimise the tour's carbon footprint, caused chaos in Dubin, with many fans overcrowding the city's Dart rail system.

    The band's tour now moves on to Manchester and Glasgow.

    • EXCELLENT!!! An outstanding performance at a great location. Weather was great which always helps. I believe the choice of songs was great. They will always recieve criticism regarding choice of songs because they have so many! Remember this tour was more about promoting In Rainbows than playing every single song from OK Computer! Unless they play a 12 hour set there will always be complaints. Stop moaning!
