Jeez guys, why don't you just change your name to Webcasthead already? (Actually, on second thought, don't.) In the spirit of various previous webcasts and last-minute announcements such as this one, Radiohead have made the last-minute announcement that they will webcast tonight's (August 28) gig in Santa Barbara, California live, warts and all.
Writes Colin Greenwood on Dead Air Space,
Hello! To celebrate the end of a brilliant tour, we're going to webcast the last show here in America. We'll be playing live in Santa Barbara, at the Bowl. It's one of our favourite places to play; I think we've ended tours there before, once even playing a cover of [Neil Young's] ' cinnamon girl '. It's not too big, in fact it's very intimate, a small arena with a dirt floor, set in pretty countryside. It should be a special night, for lots of reasons, and we're going to try and share as much of it as we can on the webcast. Nigel [Godrich], our producer, will be helping out getting it to you, so if it goes wrong....It's live!
Thank you so much to everyone who's come and seen us this year; it has truly been the most special and exciting tour for all of us.
Webcast details to follow...

Tonight's gig at the Bowl is scheduled to begin to 6:30 p.m. Pacific time, with Liars opening (no word whether they'll be webcasted too, but boy I hope so). Best to set up shop in front of your computer around then and stay tuned to Dead Air Space for instructions. So that's why it's all dreary here in Chicago today...
