So the “King Of Limbs” is out and as a result there have been a couple of weeks full of Radiohead. Old habits die hard, so the preparation for the new album was the usual. Listening to albums, rarities, live performances, watching DVDs… And for that last part, I discovered another great project from Radiohead and their cool fan-base, in the same spirit as the infamous “Nataly Project”.
"On 23rd August 2009 a group of Radiohead fans descended on
the Výstavištĕ Holešovice Exhibition Hall in Prague on a mission –
to capture the band playing using as many different angles as possible.
Bringing together the exceptional talents of many contributors,
here is the result."

Well, lucky for us, there is another project like that: A benefit concert for Earthquake-stricken Haiti. The concept is exactly the same. Many portable cameras, the original board-recording and hours of mixing, I guess. However, the setlists are somehow unique with many hidden highlights.
If you follow the links below, you can download both of them for free, in almost any possible format. You can also donate something for Haiti, if you want. An audio-only version (MP3) of the “Radiohead For Haiti” concert you can find HERE.

As for the “King Of Limbs”, I haven’t really decoded it yet. I knew from the first listening, this would take some time. So, I’m gonna give it to it, before I jump to “Amnesiac” conclusions. But If you’re wondering too, why the hell it is only 37 minutes long, maybe this link from conspiratist JDSO will keep you company.
