Hello people, I'm a n00b, but I did my little research before I decided to post here because I don't want to make you lose your time. nod.gif

A friend introduced me to Live and I liked what I've heard so far! I found a few torrents that made me happy... However, as I read the setlists on this site, I realized that The Dam At Otter Creek doesn't seem to be played often! God, I love that song and am looking for more versions. I come as a massive Radiohead fan and we have 2 amazing sites that portray each song and list their live performances, so it's easier to spot the bootlegs we should look for. So, I wonder if the same exists for Live... If no, is there a place with the boots links, like a hub or something? Thanks for any info and have a nice day. smile.gif




just because you seem to love this song: I came across some info about the song. Chad Gracey said this about TDAOC a few years ago:

QUOTE
The fondest memory for me about Throwing Copper was the recording of "The Dam at Otter Creek." A Minnesota thunder storm had just rolled in at about dusk and we looked at each other and said "it is time for The Dam at Otter Creek." We started recording the song and as the storm climaxed outside so did the song inside. At the end of the first take I think we all knew that this song was the opener of the album. I remember the first time we listened to the whole record after recording all of the songs and thinking this record is a classic.

Looking for bootlegs, check out liverockspace.com !
You can add Operation Spirit, Sweet Release, The Dolphin's Cry, and Pillar Of Davidson to that list.


I was thinking of Sweet Release... but I listened to the one off RS and it sounds near identical. PoD sounds better in the album at the end but Live it sounds great in the beginning.

Radiohead and Live are not all that different. I might be getting confused with REM but doesn't the lead singer look a little like Ed? Also, they both only had a couple of hits and then faded away except to the truest fans. I still think Ed is a better singer though tongue.gif

I discovered Radiohead A couple months ago when I heard Creep on Rock band and thought it sounded awesome. I asked everyone I knew what album I should get if I wanted to learn to like Radiohead and they pointed me to OK computer... that album had like 2 good songs on it and I hated it. The vocals sounded awful, too quiet and drown out by the band. I had to get the lyrics to understand them. Karma Police was the only song I remember.

If you know a better album than that, point me to it bc I will give them a second chance.


NO, OK Computer had 2 songs that YOU LIKED. The entire album was excellent, amongst the best recorded over the past 20 years. Song by song the album is just fantastic, you're just not mature enough to appreciate it. Don't bother listening to them because its an insult to the band.

Go back to jerking of to your la da da da's of the shitty fucking river. The more shit I hear come from your mouth, the more I'm convinced that you're actually somewhat retarded. It's no wonder the world is as fucked as it is with brain dead zombie fucking morons walking around everywhere.

Radiohead kicks Live's fucking ass plain and simple. Their music is a trillion times more creative and progressive. They're more consistent, the music contains meaning and emotion to this day and is still relevant. While you're still convinced that Transmit Your Love is good guitar work. Go listen to Mystery and tell me how good it is, fucking retard. Jesus, just quit posting already. Your stupid fanboy ass is making me wanna puke.

I dunno man, that album did have Fitter Happier on it..

I am torn with Radiohead, some of their songs I find absolutely brilliant. Karma Police is in my top few songs ever, there's a good solid handful of others that I love as well .. Just, Paranoid Android, My Iron Lung, Pyramid Song etc.. but some of their stuff I just can't listen to, it makes me want to punch Tom Yorke in the face until his mother can't recognise him. I can certainly appreciate most of the stuff they put out but it's usually either an extreme for me either I really like it or hate it, which I kind of like in a way. I mean, at least their music is working and provoking emotion, better than being blah or forgetable.

I won't involve myself in your mb inside stories, but... no need to insult, my friend. Even if I kinda agree with your point, everybody has right to his opinion, and I never felt like I was in position to claim that my tastes were the best in the world. I hate that attitude of superiority that many RH fans often show. It's like if someone doesn't get Radiohead, he's wrong and retarded. It's not that easy. If I began with Kid A, probably that I would have wondered wtf is wrong with that band. I needed The Bends to open my ears first. music.gif Tastes grow over time, but I'm not sure there's a path to follow. Also there is music for all moods. I don't usually feel like playing How To Disappear Completely very loud on a hot sunny day, in spite of the fact that it's probably the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. smile.gif

Which never works.

Bootlegheaven.com is the best source for bootlegs.

Which is linked to your site, right?

liverockspace.com doesn't always work but if you have patience it will pay off. The site has a bunch of great recordings and some very high quality stuff. I prefer it over bootlegheaven.com and personally I've found a lot better stuff there.

By the way, the best version of Live's Imagine cover is somewhere on that site. It's way better than the gift version they released. I don't recall the show though.

Radiohead is a whiny bitch band. Their music sucks "fucking ass plain and simple." I can't even listen to the shit.

We can agree to disagree here!

Once again you spread th bullshit and bring the negativity. I thought we were over with the previous talk over at Nirvana thread. No. It is not linked to my site. Moreover, it does not belong to my friend anymore. For more than a year. I have no benefit from spreading the word on it if you are envious or shitty in any other way. It was the first site to become the biggest collection of LIVE bootlegs in the world. I still prefer it. As when it works, it always works, if it is not being re-structured. It is the best site. I know why. If you do not, try not to be redeculis at least.

What next? Will you say Tchaikovsky was a bitch? You are such a retard, never even trying to explain your own point of view.

I thought it was explained. They sound whiny, end of story. Not trying to start another argument.

How To Disappear Completely is probably the single best song I have ever heard. There may be a few Zep songs that rank up there with it but that's about it. Kid A, OK Computer, Amnesiac and The Bends are all masterpieces. They make Live look like Hansen or whatever the fuck those little faggot guys are called.

I prefer The Bends unlike most Radiohead fans. Actually, I wouldn't even call myself a fan because I don't listen to them that much really. More of an admirer. Their creativity and musical talent is unparalelled by anybody in the music industry over the past 25 years. Nine Inch Nails would have to be the closest followed by Tool(Thanks McPheezy).

Songs like High and Dry and Fake Plastic Trees are just gorgeous. The latter being one of the most emotion provoking songs I've ever come across, utterly beautiful. I love The Bends as an opener too with it's catch guitar and changes of pace. Bulletproof is a nice song but my favorite song off this cd and probably amonst the best of Radiohead is Black Star. I can listen to that song over and over and over and fucking over again. "Balme it on the black star, blame it on the fallin' sky, blame it on the satellite...." followed by the rhythmic guitars...is just utterly awesome and breathtaking. The whole album is pure and utter genius.

I am a much MUCH bigger fan of LIVE. But unlike most off the gay ass idiot fanboy's around here, I can easily admit that Radiohead is so much better than Live, it's not even comparable. Anybody who can't see that in my view is a retard, sorry.

Ed, don't even bother with him. It's entirely pointless trying to reason with a retard.

You'll always get the same response...." Blugh ach blech buh TIMMY! LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
