Here’s What Radiohead Played At Their First Show In Seven Years

Radiohead returned to the stage tonight for the first time in seven years. It's been an eventful interim, marked by the launch of side projects — most prominently the Smile, Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood's band with drummer Tom Skinner — and the amplification of controversy regarding the members' stance on Palestine and Greenwood's ties to Israel. At Movistar Arena in Madrid, the band kicked off the first of several four-night residencies in major European cities, digging into their catalog for a career-spanning setlist. I don't know what this gig told us about the future of Radiohead, but seeing these song titles written out is a reminder of how much I enjoyed their past.

With the show underway, setlist.fm is being updated in real time. Based on what they've played so far, it looks like the leaked setlist for tonight that made its way to Reddit is authentic.

They opened with "Let Down," of course, in the wake of its decades-late viral breakout. The set feels ever so slightly weighted toward 2003's Hail To The Thief — including the first performance of "Sit Down Stand Up" since 2004 — which makes sense since Yorke spent months immersed in that material for this year's Hamlet Hail To The Thief, sparking the release of a Hail To The Thief live album.

Below, check out footage from the gig, in which you'll notice the very cool circular stage.
