Is a combination i would never have thought possible. But you never know with Thom.. if you've been living under a rock for the past week (or you're not a radiohead fan, hur) Thom Yorke has formed a new band 'for fun' to play his solo stuff live and perhaps some new songs, made up of Flea, Mauro Refosco, Joey Waronker and Nigel Godrich himself.. and they're playing 3 shows over the next three days in LA. At first, like many, i was like WTF. But after convincing myself quite persuasively that this wouldn't have any bearing on Radiohead, i am actually pretty fucking excited and interested. I mean, imagine a full band Harrowdown Hill, with Flea on bass, Waronker and Refosco with two live drumsets, Nigel with some loops.. crazy.
Refosco has been quoted as saying they'll play the whole Eraser record, and some new songs. New new? or recently released new. Either way someone HAS to tape this. PLEASE. Updates to follow.
