I was lucky enough to get two tickets through the online draw for the recording of the 200th edition and it didn't disappoint. Standing mere feet from my favourite band (Radiohead) watching them play a great mix of tracks from in rainbows was absolutely amazing. Be sure not to miss it, especially for a stunning performance of 'weird fishes'. Check out bbc online for a beautiful song called house of cards which Radiohead recorded separately from the main show. Radiohead are quite simply the best band of their generation and seeing them so up close and personal will be a highlight of my year.

Oh For Christ Sake!! Radio Head!? What Makes Them So Great!? I'd Rather It Was Led Zep (Which Is Just As Bad!) You Need A Band With More History Like The Manics, Blur Or Even Morresey! I Just Hate Radio Head So Much!! They Should Be Sent To Frank Carter! (Gallows) He'd Sort These Cunts Out!!! Or Even Better They Should Be Confined To A Padded Cell And Forced To Listen To 'ok Computer' Over And Over And Over And Over. . . .
