Radiohead's Dallas setlist

Hey, it's late and I'm writing from Dallas, where I just got back to the hotel from a very intense, very satisfying performance by Radiohead, the eighth and last stop on the first leg of an American tour that returns to these shores in August.

I'm too tired to write. I'll do that on the plane tomorrow and post a review sometime Monday. For the time being, I thought you might like to see the setlist from the show in Big D. It's fairly representative of what they've been playing since they got to the U.S., though they threw in a few surprises ("Dollars & Cents" was one of a handful of songs appearing for the first time on this leg of the tour).

And for you geeks keeping score, the album-by-album breakdown goes like this: Ten songs from new album "In Rainbows" (11 if you include "Bangers 'n Mash" from the deluxe edition), two from "Hail to the Chief," three from "Amnesiac," four from "Kid A," two from "OK Computer" and two from "The Bends."

Here's the list:
1. "All I Need"
2. "There There"
3. "15 Step"
4. "Bangers 'n Mash"
5. "Nude"
6. "Pyramid Song"
7. "Weird Fishes/Arpeggi"
8. "National Anthem"
9. "Dollars & Cents"
10. "Faust Arp"
11. "Videotape"
12. "Wolf At The Door"
13. "Optimistic"
14. "Reckoner"
15. "Everything In Its Right Place"
16. "Idioteque"
17. "Bodysnatchers"
(encore)
18. "Fake Plastic Trees"
19. "Jigsaw Falling Into Place"
20. "House of Cards"
21. "Exit Music (for a film)"
22. "The Bends"
(second encore)
23. "You and Who's Army?"
24. "Paranoid Android"

(two hours)

The Liars, who play Club 101 May 21 on their way to the West Coast, opened with an impressive set of white noise, primal beats and raw punk energy. Should sound (and look) great in a small club like that.

Wow! Sounds like a GREAT night! Pretty cool you got to fly to Dallas. Nice to hear they played a full two hours. All the radiohead geeks will love hearing that. I'm not a big fan, but still, I do like to keep up! Keep those great nuggets coming, like set lists!

Here's the setlist for the Houston show if anyone was interested. Too bad there was no Just, Paranoid Android, Karma Police, Wolf at the Door. Still an awesome show, if anyone from KLAQ is reading this, "Creep" is not Radiohead's best or only song, idiots.

02 Bodysnatchers
03 Lucky
04 Morning Bell
05 Nude
06 Pyramid Song
07 Weird Fishes/Arpeggi
