Radiohead in St Louis!

by BeatChick - last update: May 17, 2008

Going to see Radiohead May 14th, 2008!

Thom Yorke of Radiohead
I took the Megabus from Cincinnati, through Indianapolis to Chicago, then on to St. Louis this past Wednesday.

We arrived at Union Station where I made a new friend, Keeyon, who is a transplanted Chicagoan from St. Louis. Since he couldn't get in touch with his friend in town to bring her out to the concert, we decided to hang out for the day. He & I had ridden the Megabus from Chicago and we wondered just how many had come on the bus with the express interest of seeing Radiohead in St. Louis - we figured probably about 50%.

Anyway, we both have an affinity for THE MOST AWESOME band, Radiohead! We were, like, so stoked, OKAY?!?!

Here are photos of the concert on my pbase.com website:

After the concert, under the excellent guidance of you grand VTers, l headed back via County Cab directly to Union Terminal to catch the Megabus back that night to Chicago.

Unfortunately, as I went back the same night I did not need a hotel so I can't report back on those.

When i'm at the pearly gates
This'll be on my videotape
My videotape

When Mephistopheles is just beneath
And he's reaching up to grab me

This is one for the girl I date
And I have it all here
In red blue green
In red blue green

You are my centre when I spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape

This is my way of saying goodbye
Because I can't do it face to face
I'm talking to you
After it's too late
From my videotape

No matter what happens now
You shouldn't be afraid
Because I know today has been
The most perfect day i've ever seen

 Verizon would like you as a promo marketing specialist. Good job of describing the arena and to do things.
